I admit I had to look at wikipedia's lists to remember some of these, which then made me feel bad for not playing most of the games. These are roughly in order and are based on the level of my nostalgia for these games.
1. X-Men (Arcade)
2. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (PC)
3. Dune 2000 (PC)
4. Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire (N64)
5. Disney's Aladdin (SegaG)
1. Goldeneye 007 (N64)
2. Aladdin (SNES)
3. Viva PiƱata (Xbox 360) - or was the show based off the game?
4. The Lion King (SNES)
5. Star Wars Battlefront II (PC)
Haven't played KOTOR or the new Batman game... it took me longer than it should have to come up with 5 games, haha.
Duck Tales (NES)
Turtles in Time (SNES)
Star Wars Rogue Leader: Rogue Squadron 2 (GC)
Dune 2 (PC)
Goldeneye007 (N64)
I tried my best to remove the nostalgia goggles when making this list. Too bad there wasn't any room for Cool Spot or Chex Quest.
In no particular order:
X-Men (Arcade)
The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (360/PC)
Goldeneye 007 (N64)
Aladdin (Genesis/Megadrive)
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Chip n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (NES)
TMNT: Turtles in Time (SNES)
Goldeneye 007 (N64)
Knights of the Old Republic (XB/PC)
Batman: Arkham Asylum (PS3/360/PC)
Capcom really used to crank out tons of amazing Disney games, didn't they? Wonder if Epic Mickey will warrant a place on these lists once it comes out...
1. Marvel Vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes (Arc/DC/PS2/XB/360/PS3)
2. Area 88 (aka UN Squadron) (SNES)
3. Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse
4. Kingdom Hearts (PS2)
5. Maximum Carnage (SNES)
I'm not really satisfied with these games because many of them are just overrated. Actually that's not really true either because most of them have pretty mediocre scores on ranking sites.
5. Batman: Arkham Asylum (360/PS3)
4. The Simpsons Arcade Game (ARC)
3. TMNT: Turtles in Time (SNES version is the one I like better)
2. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (360, PC)
1. DuckTales (NES)
5. Tiny Toons: Buster Busts Loose (SNES)
4. Aladdin (SNES/Genesis)
3. The Lion King (SNES/Genesis)
2. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (X-Box/PC)
1. GoldenEye 007 (N64)
Worst:
ET (Atari 2600)
