The 1995 PlayStation version of Andy Davidson‘s classic Worms is undoubtedly the best version of the game ever made. Ocean and Team 17 collaborated on this release.
It is an incredible multiplayer game, for up to four people.

We Love Katamari, PlayStation 2
Namco‘s We Love Katamari on the PlayStation 2 is one of the most imaginative games ever made! It is the sequel to 2004’s Katamari Damacy and takes the idea of rolling things up further than its predecessor did, resulting in another fantastic and bizarre adventure in item-collecting.
The King of Grabs
