hey,

I don't post on the forums that much, lik I have said in my other posts, but still stuck in between a rock and a hard place regarding a gp2x. I want something that is cheap, fun, useful and most of all...well, good :)

I dont want to buy a PSP because of the rootkit scandal, and because of the fact they dont let you do what YOU want to the console YOU bought, so I found myself at the heels of a GP2x :p

So... What good games should I get (2d or 3d) that will be fun to play for a long time and dip into... I mainly like shooting and racing,

Thanks

duh! I thought you wre asking whether you should get a PSP or a GP2X hence the question.. you just want a game list...

For any particular console:
Metal Slug (Mame, NeoGeoCD, Neo Geo MVS)
Shadowrun (Genesis/Megadrive, Snes [Note: They are two different games])
Pariodius (Snes, PC Engine [i think], Gameboy)
1942 (Mame, PC engine, Nes)
Gunhed (PC Engine)
Spyhunter
Street racer (Genesis/Megadrive, Snes)
Rock and Roll racing (Genesis/Megadrive, Snes)
Heads over Heels
Snake Rattle and Roll (Nes)
Gradius
Stunt Racer (Atari ST)
Zombies Ate my Neighbours (Genesis/Megadrive, Snes))
Any of the ScummVm games ( Beneath a Steel Sky is free)

That should keep you going..
 
Nois2za is a great shooter for example... in case you bought the original ROMs :) you can also enjoy already all SEGA Genesis/MegaDrive games in full quality... some older emulators work as well... (S)NES is getting on the way... NeoGeo and PSX will still improve lots too.. so you can choose from almost all games from these systems...

I heard they will ake a commercial hoover racing game, no idea what it will look like though.. I also heard from Craigx that we get news about this next month :)!
Buy a GP2X... it's just getting better every day, that's the cool thing about being an early adopter of an open source handheld :)
 
Krazy Kart is a cool looking commercial game that will be coming out. From the screenshots, it looks kind of like a mario cart style racing game.
 
Beneath a steel sky is incredible.

also, so games i like:

genesis - rocket knight adventures
genesis - bart vs. the space mutants
genesis - bubsy
genesis - the lion king
genesis - sonic 3 & knuckles
nes - castlevania 1 2 & 3
nes - any megaman
nes - BATMAN

ok so those are all platformers & adventure games.

racing:
nes - rad racer
nes - r.c. pro am
genesis - road rash 3

shooters:
nes - ABADOX!

wait, did you mean fps or side-scrolling shooters? cause if you mean fps then i'd head for the ports of doom, hexen, quake...

i'm not familiar with homebrew enough to recommend any since i don't have my gp2x yet!


is it just me or were movie franchise games better 10-15 years ago...batman, tmnt, empire strikes back...
 
Coool, thanks for the help everyone, I remeber playing rocket knight adventures when I was little, that was fun :)

And as for the hoover game....keep the jap/korean stuff coming :)
