Why you can trust 12DOVE
Desert Strike and Jungle Strike embody what video games were all about in the mid-90s. This series, partially begun as a way to capitalize on the first Gulf War, is a hard-as-nails, mission-based helicopter shooter. Only the hardest of hardcore gamers will make any progress in either of these two titles, but they're nonetheless two of the best shooters from the 16-bit era.
Mutant League Football was EA's attempt to have a bit of fun with the Madden franchise back in the day. It featured the same great gameplay, but with the added bonus of funny and violent additions in the form of monstrous players, on-field booby-traps, and so on. Easily the best multiplayer game on EA Replay. Note to EA: please bring this series back. Please.
Finally, the three-game Road Rash series. This early motorcycle racing/combat franchise was simply awesome back in the day, and remains so on this compilation. It looks great, plays great, and has a surprising amount of depth for a game where all you do is go fast and beat up other riders. Strangely, though, the soundtrack's been replaced with some decidedly generic tunes. Too bad EA couldn't have included the incredible licensed soundtrack from Road Rash on the 3DO and SEGA CD.
