Decimation X: Makes A Most Wanted List

Thursday, June 6, 2013
By: Matthew Doucette

RetroRemakes just put out a most wanted list of games to keep playing after XBLA dies away. And the original Decimation X made the cut along side some pretty amazing arcade style games. Check it out!

http://www.merseyremakes.co.uk/gibber/2013/06/here-is-my-list-of-demands/

The (incomplete) full list included: Rez HD, Crackdown 1 & 2, Geometry Wars 2, Ikaruga, N+, Omega 5, EDF 2017, Every Extend Extra Extreme, Pacman & Galaga remakes, Outrun Arcade, Jetpac Refuelled, Shoot 1UP, Decimation X, Weapon Of Choice, Echoes+, Grid Space Shooter, You Will Die, Avaglide 2, Apple Jack 1 & 2, Katana Land.

You'll notice a few Mommy's Best Games in there, one of our close friends.

Rob ended off with this quote:

Look, there’s loads more. What I’m trying to say is that with the next generation almost upon us, there’s a high chance we’re going to lose access to loads of fucking really great games in no time and moving them across to the PC is a good way to avoid them disappearing into the void forever. Please, please, do this. Each of the games on the list above I’ll definitely pay money for all over again because they’re -excellent- games.
