Your Top lists are actually really well made and I always love to hear gaming stories from the 80's and 90's. You guys seem to have a lot of fun (and not so fun) memories and you also seem to remember them really well. :) Keep up the good work! I've been watching the Game Chasers since Season 1 aired in 2010 and you guys were one of the biggest reasons I started to collect video games more seriously. Still, eight years later the best thing in this hobby is the thrill of the hunt so to speak, Ebay doesn't get you the satisfaction that finding the games out in the wild does. :) Too bad, that it's so rare to find retro from flea markets these days, even stuff like PS1 and n64, at least here in Finland. Anyways, best regards to whole Chasers crew and especially the OG crew (Billy, Jay, Melvor, Dodongo) Greetings from Finland

Funny Super Offroad is on your list. That and Super Sprint were our favorite rentals. It was one of the few good multiplayers, by which I mean four-player, it had Graphics that were very very close to the arcade, and it didn't do split screen it put it all on one. Less of a big deal now but back then having a 20 inch CRT was an amazing thing. Split screen games like Mario Kart were off and rage-inducing and prone to fights with friends. You would have a tiny window, and there would be the whole big deal about promising to not look at other peoples screens. With the Sprint and off-road games it didn't matter, and it included the ability to get your initials up on a scoreboard as well as having upgrade abilities and a decent variety of maps. So that game is probably the only game that we really gave our tap a workout on

My choice easily goes to WCW Backstage Assault. Even with some of the other bad rentals we got, we at least kept playing them until it was time to return the game to the video store. My brother and I played one match of Backstage Assault before taking the game out of our PS1, putting it back in it's case, putting the case on top of the TV and leaving it there until it was time to return it. I don't think my mom was very happy with wasting her $5 that time.

Going to the store to get Atari games from about '82-'85 was always a crap shoot. Games were really cheap and usually on clearance, and seven out of ten times you would get home and play the game just a few times. That was the problem with the Atari. The number of games we actually replayed is relatively small.

The green faced monster on the box was so awesome I excitedly grabbed it and took it to the counter. Had to spend all weekend with Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Worst weekend ever.
