I remember seeing the first guy on the page in the nostalgia critic of Kazaam review but I never knew it went as far as him appearing in a video game. Oh dear oh dear x.x.

I remember most of those older titles, but only played a few.

I remember when I was little, I always wanted to play Moonwalker, but never really got a chance until emulation. And by then, I was pretty disappointed.

I have Chuck Norris: Superkicks, it's a pretty sweet game, though it's kind of hard. I never could beat it, but one time I read through the instruction manual and got fairly decent at it, managed to get through the first handfuls of fights.
The basic premise of the game is that every time you get through a fight, you earn a new move. Then you have actually learn how to do it by reading the manual, and then use it to win the next fight.

I thought the TekWar game was kind of neat, it had a lot of cool ideas (like the subway hub, and NPCs, and stuff like that), but the crappy graphics and muddled design made it hard to enjoy. I don't know if I'd really call it a celebrity game though, since it's a TV-tie-in game and not a William Shatner game. He's only in it in some of the FMVs, to give you backstory.

I loved Oregon Trail on the old Apple ][. I remember those Sim games quite a bit. I especially enjoyed SimTower :)

I have Streets...did not like it at all. Only thing I got out of it was an updated version of Adobe Reader.

Those music stations were especially bad, ha ha.

It might have been cooler if I actually had SimCity 2000 (I think it was) so I could drive through my own cities...but as a standalone game, it didn't seem that cool.
