Do feel free to share all your personal licensed game favourites, as well as any that I may have missed. Hopefully you enjoy this, it took a good while to put together but hopefully it's worth it! :)
This sort of thing is why your channel was one of the first...maybe even the first.. retro gaming channels I subscribed to. I'm blown away that there were 100 games, and the lack of Astroboy (GBA) or half a dozen of my favorite fighting games and Lego titles just proves this is a deeper well than reputation suggests.
Alien Trilogy, Die Hard Trilogy, Spiderman 2 (PS2), Chronicles of Riddick: EFBB and Alien v Predator 2000 are probably my favourite ever tie-ins/spin-offs ever... also; The Addams Family on SNES was *awesome* Edit: Alien 3 also holds a special place in my heart, as every system got a totally different version and I _really_ miss the days where that happened! ...and shout out all my Batman Cartoon Maker players out there lol... Multimedia PC heads _represent!_ Only real ones know 😂❤ _(...and_ fair play to the Alien: Isolation top 10 position - it really is both _unbelievably_ good and *absolutely terrifying!)* Great video - cheers Kim 🍻
No summer would be complete without these lists! I enjoy them immensely and will definitely refer back as there are some titles I am eager to try out as well! Thanks Kim.
On a long journey from Glasgow to London with awful wifi, looking for an escape and here you are with your most excellent looking video. Thank you. You have saved my journey ❤
What I like about Kim's lists is that while I wouldn't have thought of it, once I see the title I am like "Yeah, I would like to know about that." Great video.
Shadowrun on the SNES was beyond amazing.. Its a credit to the devs that despite only having 16-bits to play with its as enthralling now as it ever was!
Kim's video game literacy is second to none. She's like a human encyclopedia of video games history. It's a great list, but if I had a criticism, I'd have liked it if it were a top 1,000 😂
I don't think there were 1,000 licensed game that could be considered good enough to make a list like this. It's a feat that there were even 100 a good ones to make a list with.
The bit on Batman Arkham Asylum where Scarecrow says something like ‘what is your greatest fear…?’, the PS3 starts crashing, eventually going off and it turns out to be a trick is one of my greatest gaming moments. Great stuff and loved the list, Kim. Thank you.
Fantastic line up. It's so great to hear from someone representing so much of the home computer classics that get overlooked by most channels. And when I saw the number one I could have applauded. Nice one Kim 👍🏻
Phenomenal, as always. The amount of work that goes into your videos is mind boggling. You really do deserve (and hopefully will eventually obtain) a massive audience. So good. Long may you continue.
Gotta love how much work Kim does putting this stuff together. Also, glad someone remembers when Konami made good games, instead of doing their best to destroy all their old franchises.
Your voice is just so comforting Kim. Growing up in the eighties with BBC kids programs, I understand most of what you’re talking about (although not everything) even though I’m not from the UK. Thank for all your hard work.
I've always loved how Batman looks in that isometric ZX Spectrum one. I canonically want Batman to be this short pudgy guy, stoically shuffling around the confines of his Bat Cave solving "crimes"... eventually... ;p
Awesome video as always! I hadn't heard of quite a few of these and now I want to check them all out. I always appreciate that your lists feel like you and don't just have the same expected ones on every list. Some of my favourites not mentioned in case you want to check them out: Peter Jackson's King Kong, Star Wars Episode 3 on the GBA (Wayforward beat em up!), Star Wars Trilogy Arcade, Predator: Concrete Jungle, Lego Star Wars (all of them I guess?).
Another excellent video, well researched, authoritative and brilliantly edited. This channel joins the small pool of other videogame channels I watch weeekly that feel like a TV show. Great wresting channel also Kim, you defintely deserve many more subs.
I always enjoy your Top 100/Top 50 lists. I can appreciate the effort even more now when some CZcamsrs are lazily having AI generate their lists and duping people into thinking they know what they're talking about.
Wow, I think this is my favorite of all the lists you’ve ever done. Only a few choices that I would disagree with and of course, a few entries I thought were missing, but otherwise spot on and a few games on here you helped me discover. Thank you for all your hard work. This was such a great watch.
Ahh a new video to enjoy over breakfast on a sun . Love reminiscing about back in the day Spectrum dude, I was, and loved all the famous ones like jet set, manic,3d starstruck,jet pack,monty,match day, hyper sports, daily Thompson and so on and on. Thank you for putting these videos together.
Another fantastic list Kim! I only played Bruce Lee on the Atari 800xl back in the day (it felt like a signature release for it, it certainly came out first) and it was an especially memorable game I felt. It was coloured a little better than the c64 version, though I expect they played much the same. It seems like it was possibly the best looking 800 game in the end, perhaps because it was specifically designed for its palette, ie rather than being just a straight conversion like most of the system's games ended up being I expect.
I was so happy seeing the adventures of batman&robin(MegaDrive version of course) being included here. Its soundtrack is ...unbelievable Knights of the Old Republic 1&2 are also among my top favourite games (while younger , i finished them more than 30-40 times ...each !! ) ---And something else which might surprise you : Jurassic Park:Trespasser is also a game that i enjoyed seeing it here. I remember my favourite PC magazine(PC Master) totally "burrying" this game during its release date , but after seeing your excellent Trespasser-review that you made few years ago , i've realised how many potential this game had if the developers had been able to refine certain details.
This was a fasinating video to watch! was nice to see so many licensed games and a video that shows how many where good when the overall impression on licensed games is that there bad! Fantastic video man!
Woo more Kim is always good! I want a licensed game for this CZcams channel. Maybe a Kim sprite could collect bass guitars and old Speccy tapes while sheltering from whatever the enemies are in WImpy restaurants.
Surprised we didn't see more of the Disney NES titles here. Duck Tales, Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers and Talespin are all classics in my book. The SNES version of Shadowrun is a completely different game from the Genesis/Megadrive one and one of my all time favorites.
Man, that was enjoyable. Since you loved the MD Shadowrun, please, play 'Shadowrun: Dragonfall'! It would be easily among my top licensed games for the story alone and the Shadowrunverse had been so lovingly recreated there.
Good list! I don't play games before the NES era but I like learning about them. Some of my favorites that I didn't see in Kim's list: Friday the 13th Killer Puzzle, The Mummy Demastered, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom, Goosebumps Escape from Horrorland.
Great video Kim! You'll no doubt have heard that Teyon (the folks behind Terminator: Resistance) have a new Robocop game in the works that is due out later this year. I was involved with the Beta testing and it is looking very promising. Thanks again for the great content 👍
Again absolutely delighted to see Shadowrun so high - one of my personal top three games of all time, there's absolutely nothing else remotely like it. So good I bought a Genesis copy, even though I can't play it, just to own it legit.
Great list, and very *you* (Lots of Ocean Games on the ZX Spectrum, haha)! Off the top of my head some games I would certainly include on a list like this are Baldur's Gate 1&2 (top spot), The Lord of the Rings Online, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and Kingdom Hearts (not sure if it counts but I would stretch the definition because it's one of my favorites).
Games that would have made my list: Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Xbox), Tron 2.0, Alien (Spectrum/C64), Terminator: Skynet, Superman (Atari 2600...I'm serious), Witcher 3. Probably forgetting a few.
I love when your watching a video like this, see a game and then start thinking "hey... this looks familiar....". Then you realise its a game you had when you were about 12 and the nostalgia hits you like your first dodgy E. So yeah Batman on the SMS. Great game that.
Star Wars Trilogy Arcade 1998,Rambo 2008 are my holy grails from the playing at home point of view..one console game will always be my top licensed game and favourite console game of all time and that is Scarface The World Is Yours on the PS2
Great content as always,must of took a right grind getting all those games together but cheers. Any chance you could do a review breakdown of the point click genres like broken sword, disc world, monkey island and so on.
Hope you make part 2 of 100 more licensed games! There's a bunch of Star Wars hidden gems that you should check out if you haven't. Personally, I loved the RPG part in Phantom Menace, the beatemup Jedi Power Battles, and surprisingly, the terraforming strategy/sim Gungan Frontier... never expected that to be good! Also Starfighter and Battle for Naboo that have the ship that the Mandalorian is now using in the series. And there are fan patches that make the Jedi Knight games SORTA work on modern PCs. It's a hassle to set up though. I also heard a lot of good stuff about games based on Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter though I haven't played those myself so can't comment... And Godfather was the ONLY GTA-like game I actually 100%ed. It's just really good. As to Bond stuff, I enjoyed all I played but mostly PS1 games of Brosnan era which are not that bad, except the horrible car combat game... Speaking of that, WHEN YOU PLAY STAR WARS DEMOLITION, TURN OFF REGENERATION PADS ON STAGE. That game is great if you stop enemies from endlessly healing.
I know you said you'd be forgoing sports here, but I have to give a shout to "go go beckham adventures on soccer island", which is a 2d platformer for gba where you play as david beckham. the goal is to kick your soccer ball into the goal at the end of every stage and there are enemies that try to take possession of the ball from you. it never gets all that complex, but I gotta admire the full-on commitment to a fun and novel idea
Alien Trilogy, Die Hard Trilogy, Spiderman 2 (PS2), Chronicles of Riddick: EFBB and Alien v Predator 2000 are probably my favourite ever tie-ins/spin-offs ever... also; The Addams Family on SNES was *awesome* Edit: Alien 3 also holds a special place in my heart, as every system got a totally different version and I _really_ miss the days where that happened! ...and shout out all my Batman Cartoon Maker players out there lol...

You beauty Kim thanks so much. I wake at the wee hours and these sort of vids get me through the quiet with a stoned smile. Brilliant
Your voice is just so comforting Kim. Growing up in the eighties with BBC kids programs, I understand most of what you’re talking about (although not everything) even though I’m not from the UK. Thank for all your hard work.
That's my late night viewing sorted later, nice one Kim 🤟🤟
@kimjustice. Your videos have helped to no end with my anxiety over the years. Best UK retro games channel no argument. ♥️👊
Pleasantly surprised to see World of Illusion so high. I remember me and a friend playing it non-stop. An incredible co-op game!
I've always loved how Batman looks in that isometric ZX Spectrum one. I canonically want Batman to be this short pudgy guy, stoically shuffling around the confines of his Bat Cave solving "crimes"... eventually... ;p
Very much looking forward to this Kim!

It's a dream revival of my favourite ever CZcams series, your A-Z Of License Games, which I regularly rewatch every few months!
Cheers Kim what an awesome video yet again. Thanks for all your hard work in making this.
Top tier stuff Kim, a pleasure to watch
Fantastic as always and watching this again for the second time. The work and research you put in is really second to none, much respect to you!
Great video Kim!! I love some of those games.
Always a good morning when Kim posts!
Great list! Capcom and Konami had some truly fantastic licensed games back in the day
I always enjoy your Top 100/Top 50 lists. I can appreciate the effort even more now when some CZcamsrs are lazily having AI generate their lists and duping people into thinking they know what they're talking about.
All your lists are great, but this is the one I've always wanted to see!
Really looking forward to this one. Your A-Z of licensed games some years ago is still among my favourites so can't wait to watch through this.
Wow, I think this is my favorite of all the lists you’ve ever done. Only a few choices that I would disagree with and of course, a few entries I thought were missing, but otherwise spot on and a few games on here you helped me discover. Thank you for all your hard work. This was such a great watch.
Ahh bliss, new vid from Kim on great subject. My happy shed time sorted. Thank you for post
Another fantastically entertaining video thanks for taking the time really enjoyed this
Good choice of games, Very shocked that Ghostbusters: The Videogame didn't make the list as that is amazing to experience. Aside from that, good list
What a great list, cheers for making it Kim, so many good games
Your timing is once again so appreciated! I've got a day filled with meetings ahead of me, and was wondering how I was going to get through it 😂
Sir... that #1 spot made me so happy! Thank you! Have a nice weekend!
Star Wars Pod racer arcade cabinet with the funky steering arms great fun.
Thanks Kim for another hour plus enjoyable top 100 keep em coming
❤❤
Ahh a new video to enjoy over breakfast on a sun
. Love reminiscing about back in the day
Spectrum dude, I was, and loved all the famous ones like jet set, manic,3d starstruck,jet pack,monty,match day, hyper sports, daily Thompson and so on and on.
Thank you for putting these videos together.
I really enjoyed watching this Kim. Made me realise how many classic games I've never even played, despite owning them via my Raspberry Pi.
Southend seafront was my mecca for playing Arcades. Back in the day all the greats were there. I haven't been down there for years.
A great list and countdown as always, and a fantastic watch. I think Witcher 3 would have to take my top spot.
Such detail love what you’ve done here as a huge fan of pop culture licensed games is on hell of a story! Great video Kim
I am so happy whenever you send out a new video. Thank you
Good stuff as per. And the perfect accoutrement to cooking and eating an English breakfast. Nice one kim ✌️
What a great list, once again. Thank you for making this!
Yeesss. I love long retro video lists.
What an epic video Kim! Watched this tonight and such a great way to spend the evening. Thank you for all your hard work.
Ah Kim, your videos are a salve for my soul. Thank you!
Epic list Kim.... Thanks for the Vid !
Another fantastic list Kim!

Congrats on a top-drawer vid, and cannot argue in the slightest with your choice for first place - an absolutely legendary game.
This was a fasinating video to watch! was nice to see so many licensed games and a video that shows how many where good when the overall impression on licensed games is that there bad! Fantastic video man!
Woo more Kim is always good! I want a licensed game for this CZcams channel. Maybe a Kim sprite could collect bass guitars and old Speccy tapes while sheltering from whatever the enemies are in WImpy restaurants.
Good work Kim, amazing list of games right here.
Quality video ....thanks for bringing back many great memories,
Really excellent video Kim. Cheers!
A legend amongst gaming content, Kim is the best. So many memories' and so many I missed.
Surprised we didn't see more of the Disney NES titles here. Duck Tales, Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers and Talespin are all classics in my book. The SNES version of Shadowrun is a completely different game from the Genesis/Megadrive one and one of my all time favorites.

Well this takes me back to the early days of the channel. Lovely to see Terminator Resistance get some love!
Man, that was enjoyable.
Since you loved the MD Shadowrun, please, play 'Shadowrun: Dragonfall'! It would be easily among my top licensed games for the story alone and the Shadowrunverse had been so lovingly recreated there.
You need a million subs..you have been putting in work. Awesome content.
Quality stuff as usual ! Thanks!
The alliteration of "spinach sucking sailor" for Popeye made me chuckle
Great video as ever, Kim. My pick would be Sleepwalker, the Comic Relief tie-in and one of Ocean's best on Amiga.
Been waiting for a new KJ vid. Cheers Kim :)
Glorious as always!

Here are some huge ones you've missed for a list like this. Injustice: Gods Among Us, the various Lego games, Kingdom Hearts, and The Witcher.
You really do such solid videos
Another triumph from the best games journalist and streamer
Excellent choice for #1
Love it Kim! I'm pretty sure you support the shrimpers too, hope they survive, from a Colchester fan (even if we're rivals)

Nice list that was a big undertaking
Just found TIE Fighter on Steam - might have to dig out my old joystick and relive my teenage years 😀
What an epic list of so many great games.
Alien Trilogy, Die Hard Trilogy, Spiderman 2 (PS2), Chronicles of Riddick: EFBB and Alien v Predator 2000 are probably my favourite ever tie-ins/spin-offs ever... also; The Addams Family on SNES was *awesome*
Edit: Alien 3 also holds a special place in my heart, as every system got a totally different version and I _really_ miss the days where that happened!
...and shout out all my Batman Cartoon Maker players out there lol... Multimedia PC heads _represent!_ Only real ones know 😂❤
Nice to see Dune on this list. One of my favourite Mega CD memories.
As always Kim an epic video!
1:24:32 - Kim channelling Russ Abbott there, I also love a party with a heavy atmosphere.
This is quite the effort - thank you
YES! Another Kim video.
