I'm down with the Rocket Knight Adventures. That was the first that came to mind, nothing else really.

I think I liked playing Bubsy every now and then. Oh yeah, that 7up game was kinda fun too. Kind of.

Pffft, super contra was weak sauce

Contra Hard Corps for the genesis. Best Contra game ever. 4 characters, 16 weapons, like 12 different endings and last bosses from a branching level system and the game played like true contra.

My favourite finale was the one where you jump onto the giant ICBM loaded with alien parasites that has just been launched and climb the missle in flight as the aliens are growing and bursting out of it to destroy the warhead before the missile hits.

(The space station one is also cool where the boss is firing shots down at Earth in the background)

Man I gotta play that game again

Brownie. Oh my god he was broken, that Yo-yo when used right did obscene amounts of damage (By far the most damaging weapon in the game), coupled with double jump and half the collision model of the others (Perma-duck) made him pointlessly good, heh

Then you had that damn wolf with a taller than normal model and horrible weapons that did less than anyone else... but man were you hardcore if you beat it with him

Gunslinger Moogle can help me out with these two games that I vaguely remember:

The one with the robots that take other robots body parts

and

That one with those two dudes that beat shit up with cars and drank sodas? For some reason I think it was like "two cruisin dudes" or some shit.

Edit: I believe these were for sega.

I don't know about the first one, but the second one is Two Crude Dudes, an awesome game in which you beat the shit out of werewolves and rhinos.

The first was Cyborg Justice, which was mentioned elsewhere.
Nothing so fine as ripping off a torso, eh?

The game suffered from the biggest/most fun problem. The ability to have both arms ripped off without generating a default arm. So you basically just run around getting your ass kicked cause you can't fight.

With 2 subtanks. Not too hard.

I never played the Zero games, so it meant nothing to me.
