Actually I always knew I had one, but only just realised I could use a Playstation power cable with it. Go figure!

Now someone needs to convince me why I should keep it......

I won't try to convince you to keep it. In fact, I'd say the library is terribly dated. The system has not aged well - and I happen to be a FAN of the system. I've got an *almost* complete library (I need a few of those goddamn-never-turn-up-on-eBay ESPN instructional games now).

However, I do want to show you something.

Check out the pics for "Game Master"... that 3DO collection just looks REALLY cool.

Gex sucks, particularly on 3DO. Doesn't even scroll smoothly.

The only game I enjoyed on my 3DO was Twisted.

Sold my two 3DOs and a pile of games and never looked back. ;) Maybe the Jaguar should go next... :D

Killing Time is one of my favorite games... how is it on 3d0? I've only played it on PC.

Return Fire and IceBreaker held my attention for awhile. Road Rash is great too.

Well, Keir, if you don't keep it, drop me a note. I need one.

If anything, hang onto it as it seems to be holding its value on Ebay. When I first got my system almost a year ago I was wowed by it. But like some of the others, the nostalgia of the technology waned.

Pretty much what others have posted are some of the best games. Add Need for Speed and Captain Quazar to the list as both are reallly fun. The Horde is pretty kooky (in a fun way) and Slayer is neat for random dungeon delving if you can get past the graphics.

I agree with DP-it's terribly dated but the good games are fairly timeless. I'd say hang onto it.

Definitely Need For Speed. FIFA is also excellent, still holding up even today. I'm also partial to Demolition Man, but ONLY if you have light gun.
