25 Best Sega Games Of All Time - RANKED

25. Super Monkey Ball

Look, Super Monkey Ball shouldn't work. It's a ridiculous concept. It's about a monkey, trapped in a hamster ball, across a selection of platforms to reach a goal. It's a bit mad.

Although originally released in the arcades, its the GameCube version, released in 2001, that really made the series as popular as it is.

It's incredibly addictive stuff. Using the analogue stick, you tilt the actual level, not the ball, and the ball reacts accordingly to these movements based on physics. It's a simple concept, but an incredibly difficult one to master when you throw in more difficult levels, and trying to collect all the bananas that are sprinkled throughout the stages.

It's one of those games that you'll likely get so frustrated at, you'll sit there for six hours until you beat the level that's been driving you absolutely crazy.

The arcade version even had an analogue stick controller that's shaped like a banana. If that doesn't entice you to play a game about rolling a monkey around in a ball, nothing will.
