No one's stopping you from getting the game for yourself, but since it isn't freeware it won't be added to the site, and there's an end to this discussion, really.

My mind is drawing a blank now... i'll probably add more later.

But my point is... Ecco the Dolphin is NOT a classic. It sold well, but it is in no way, a classic. Many of the games i've listed are classics. If you don't think so, or you've never even played them, then you're not a true gamer.

I remember seeing Night trap in 1992 I think and thinking that it looked awesome. I never played the game though, I was mainly impressed by the graphics. Still it's not freeware afaik so why post the request here?
