The Warriors
Why has no one mentioned this game since release? It's such a great game. I play it whenever I feel really aggressive and want to take it out on some unsuspecting polygonal Destroyers, Hi-Hats, and Moonrunners. This game makes you part of a ruthless gang, letting you mug people, tag up a quick red "W" or get really artsy with a burner, participate in riots, loot stores, fight other gangs, demand protection money, etc etc. The best part of this game is its core: the fighting. It's just brutal. Pick up a crowbar and smash someone upside the head. Or break a brick off someone's head. The combos are cool, and the power move combos are even cooler. I also love smashing my opponents' heads into walls.
Rockstar delivers another great game; I'm just surprised they didn't spend much money on advertising it. Either they thought it'd sell itself, or they thought the movies audience was too much of a cult following. I loved the movie, but, and I say this is a first, I like the game BETTER. The movie is classic, but this game is SOOO much fun. Who else has tried it?
