It's all the more a fun game though Also the only one from the list which I played, so hence why I chose it.

I appreciate all of them but I vote for the Indie Limbo, it's a breeze of fresh air in a market populated by FPS and same raped brands. And it reminds me of the fabulous 90's.

If it's the 90s you're after, surely you'd want a platformer like Jazz Jackrabbit, Zool, Cool Spot or James Pond 2: Codename Robocod!

...and if you don't mind modern Flash game with retro look, I recommend Cactus McCoy. I was never into platformers/shooters/brawlers yet I love this one.

Flashback. It has an atmosphere wich grabs you in to the game's world, and makes you want more and more. The CD version was even better.

Debatable. They've changed the animations to pre-rendered 3D, while the original ones fit the game style better.

Was there any difference between the two versions besides the cutscenes? Anyhow most people I've talked to prefer the original ones, and so do I.
