What was your go-to videogame rental? (feddit.uk)

Growing up in the nineties, I rented (or my parents did) a lot of videogames. Namely for the PS1 and the Nintendo 64.

The village rental store would also be the place I effectively traded in games I didn't want anymore (they also let you buy their older games).

What games did you used to rent when you were younger, and did you have any go-to games that you remember fondly?

Sonic 2 and on were common rentals of mine. I also rented Dune Battle for Arrakis a lot. I finally purchased a copy in the early 00s. But I think the game I rented the most was Another World, and there was another one of similar concept around the same time (which I think was a genesis exclusive) that I rented a lot.

I think you may mean Flashback, which was one that I definitely spent some time with during rental weekends.
