i got forza horizon 3 and all dlc for like 5 bucks

All of our NES games were bargain-bin. Section Z was the only one we had with a decent soundtrack, which made up for how often I died

Z is a fantastic game but some of the levels infuriated me, no matter how well I played the AI seemed to have an answer... Turned out the difficulty goes up a notch after each loss since the devs expected you to git gud.

Kengo on PS2. Five bucks.

I don't remember where we got it, but back in the old days when everyone was trying to replicate the success of Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 & 2, we had School Tycoon. It's certainly no Rollercoaster Tycoon since it was specifically aimed at a younger audience, but I find it still enjoyable enough when you want to just kill time.

Definitely better than Deep Sea and Space Tycoon. That's a definite. We had those as well and I could never figure out how the hell to actually properly play them.

Way late to the party, but I picked up Lost Kingdoms for the GameCube for $5 back when GameStop still had bargains. One of my favorite games to this day.

Dungeon Keeper 1 and 2. There was a box set with both games in it, and the box art for DK1 caught my eye, just this cartoonish grinning demon. Of course I got it home, and then noticed the box art for DK2, which certainly got my attention and definitely not because I have a fetish for thighs.

Quake series. Thousands of hours on them.
