This was the last year of games I really liked.. after ’96 I was done, nothing else interested me. The N64 killed it lol
Is crash bandicoot in the list
Mickey mania was 1994

My top 10 would be:
1. Vandal Hearts
2. Tomb Raider
3. Crash Bandicoot
4. Super Mario 64
5. Wave Race 64
6. Mario Kart 64
7. Nights into dreams
8. Guardian Heroes
9. Resident Evil
10. Dragon Force
