Best Game Titles?

Postby VideoGameCritic » January 18th, 2017, 8:17 pm

If I'm going to do a list of the worst game titles, I might as well do a best-of list also!

Here are a few candidates off the top of my head.

Mortal Kombat
Quest for the Rings
Double Dragon
Crash Bandicoot
Choplifter

Let's hear your suggestions.

Power Factor
Duke Nukem
Metal Slug
Fatal Fury
Magician Lord
Thunder Castle
Locomotion
Midnight Resistance
Boom Blox

That's all I've got, but I think those are great names.

Ninja Baseball Batman is unquestionably the best title of anything ever.

I think I want to put Communist Mutants From Outer Space on this list.
It's just so "out there".

As for legitimately good titles I think Pitfall and Hydro Thunder might qualify.

Attack of the Mutant Camels (C64)

And I've always thought Altered Beast and Shadow Dancer sound cool.
