I don't play old stuff for nostalgia, I play old stuff because the games are better.

What no Doom!?!?!?!
Honestly I like all those games. the 32x has by far been my most played system lately. If I had to choose from those though it would by Knuckles Chaotix. I wish it was longer and I found the random level selection to hurt it a little but once you get use to the controls it's a real fun game with great color and music. Second would be Virtua Racing. A great pick up and play game.
BTW; no Doom!?!?!?!?!![]()
Doom should at least be on the list, but I wouldn't pick it as best. I picked VRD because it made perhaps the best use of the 32X... it and VF. So it mainly depended on whether you like racing games or fighting games better. If you aren't into either, but like shooters, you might pick Shadow Squadron or Kolibri.
Virtua Racing Deluxe
Wow. Tough one. It's between Knuckles' Chaotix and Virtua Racing Deluxe. I have an equally fun time playing both these games. But as for the one that is fun AND made the best use of the 32X, it'd have to be Virtua Racing Deluxe.
(Though I still believe Knuckles' Chaotix had some, if not the best music on the 32X)
Shadow Squadron for me, awesome game, only thing really missing is 2 player dogfight action. (and/or split screen co-op, but vs specific battles would probably be better optimized for split screen)
A tie between Virtua Racing Deluxe and Knuckles Chaotix, but there really are not too many great games on the 32X.
I mostly agree with Virtua Racing Deluxe being the best... But it wasn't an exclusive, maybe if it wasn't on the Genesis or Saturn, that would definitely change my mind. But I have fond memories of Star Wars Arcade, and it's the only port available. So being an exclusive 32x title and being from such a great franchise ALONE makes it the best 32x game. And personally I like the gameplay, wish it could be a little longer... But overall it's still the best, and it's the first game I play everytime I fire up the old 32x... (unless there's a new hack or unreleased game for the 32x, thanks to my Everdrive)
I had to go with shadow squadron. I don't really care too much for racing games so the shadow squadron has gotten a lot more play time from me as a result.
Shadow Squadron for me because space-sims are one of my favorite genres and Shadow Squadron is a shallow but seriously fun one. They do a great job with their limited polygon abilities as well and throw in a lot of cool bits of presentation like the pre-flight check and launch sequence.
I really never liked Virtua Racing though, or racing games in general, but I respect its innovation.
I almost went with SWA for the very same reasons. I really love SWA, but many people don't. For one, it's DAMN hard!
Anywho, I chose VRD as the best partly because it has so many ports: when the 32X version can go head-to-head against the Saturn and PS2 and come off favorably, you KNOW it's well done.![]()
