30 mins or less, what's your game of choice?

[Karnik]

For hit-and-run games, or during the lunch break at work, I play some puzzle games on my tiny keypad Nokia phone: Diamond Twister 2, Jewel Quest 3, Treasures of Montezuma 3, Zuma Returns, Bejeweled Twist, Bubble Bash Mania, Abracadaball, Block Breaker Deluxe and the like. ?

Chelnov or Puyo Puyo Tsuu on Mega Drive

I have more, but these are a few that came to mind.

MGS4, I've been stuck on the same cutscene for YEARS.

 

[RebelofDaNeonGod]

Any and every shmup, almost all of them can be played all the way through in 30 minutes or less, making them the perfect quick play for any day.

- Sonic the hedgehog 2
- Sonic Spinball
- Hotline Miami
- Kamen Rider Agito

 

[Dyne]

Contra
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!
DonPachi
Horizon Chase Turbo

Okay, realistically the answer is I spend 30 min picking a game and then realize I'm out of time

 

[Virtuafighter]

Virtua Fighter 5
WWE Smackdown: Here Comes the Pain
NBA Street Vol. 2
Mario Kart: Double Dash
Pro Evolution Soccer 5

Arcade style games on Steam:
- Luftrausers
- Shatter
- qrth-phyl (snake but in 3D)
- Hoppy Hop (Q-Bert clone)
- Pac-Man CE DX
- Geometry Wars 3
- Nex Machina

 

[SkoomaCatJesus]

- Hotline Miami

Hotline Miami is such a banger of a good time. Smash T.V. (on the SNES) hits that vibe sooo good.

 

[Doomstruck]

Lately for me it's been opening spark the electric jester 3 and either speeding through one of my favorite levels or going into the endless arena mode for some combat, but now that there's a beta for workshop support on echo point nova that's starting to make it into my rotation.

 

[Skeetos]

Something immediately gratifying. Like a quick game of Unreal Tournament or King of Fighters. Or whatever handheld game i have access to. Something like Sonic Advance or Mega Man Zero.
