Games You (Probably) Should Have Played – I

The Console Wars are in full swing. To celebrate, I’m taking this time to go back and pick the best games of all the previous generations that I think You (Probably) Should Have Played, one letter at a time.

Check out all the other entries in the Games You (Probably) Should Have Played series if you haven’t already.

Ivan “Ironman” Stewart’s Super Off Road (ARC – 1989)
OK, I kinda cheated here to make this fit, but there aren’t a lot of good “I” games. It’s a pretty standard racing game, but it was always fun as hell, and it seemed every pizza parlor, bowling alley, and skating rink had one in the 90’s. It was pretty hard to miss. I once got kicked out of a birthday party at a bowling alley because I was able to play for like 45 minutes on just one quarter after I kept winning each race. The NES version is also one of only a handful of games that supported 4 players with the multitap adapter. Also, the Ironman designed the Argo ATV Captain Picard drives in Star Trek: Nemesis. Just for that you should give this game a chance.
