I know for a fact Phil has done videos of Mega Man 1-6 and 10, but did he ever touch 9? That's usually considered one of the hardest Classic games, imagine the salt he'd have over the difficulty spikes throughout the regular stages, let alone Wily's Fortress. The final bosses in 7 and 8 would probably trip him up, too.

DSP has mentioned playing Mega Man 9 when it came out but it was before he was recording for YouTube. A quick search shows it came out in late September/early October 2008, so just before DSP started doing playthroughs in late October 2008.

It could be argued Mercenaries 2 or Saints Row 2 were his first playthroughs. These videos began on October 12th & October 19th 2008, so Mega Man 9 just barely missed the cut.
So he's certainly never played Mega Man 7-9 for YouTube, I expect he hasn't played Mega Man 7 or 8 at all, and Mega Man 10 was essentially handheld by John Rambo which is why Angelkay311's TIHYDP isn't even 20 minutes. It would make sense to play 7-9 and even a 'Redemption Run' for 10.

I'd like to see him play FF6 and get himself killed against the first boss, which is a monster snail called Ymir. One of your party members specifically tells you not to attack Ymir's shell; if you do, you get hit with a painful (full-party?) lightning attack. When Ymir gets to roughly 1/3 of its health remaining, it hides in its shell for a while (it doesn't attack you while it hides if you don't do anything), but it eventually comes out again.
And when Ymir hides in its shell...well, I can easily imagine DSP being DSP and attacking the shell! "*gets hit with Thunder* WHAAAAT? WHAAAT?! Aw, this is bullshit, the only target is the shell! Nothing I could do, dood!"

He played FF6. He fucked up making sure Cid lived even as he read a guide. I remembered that due to how amazingly dumb that was.

I'd love to see Phil return to Rainbow Six Siege, since a) it's massively improved since its launch (which was when he played it), and b) I need reassurance that I'm not the worst Siege player ever.

The issue with this is Phil has said FF4 and FF6 are his favorite FFs (which... are my favorite FFs... fuck!) so I'm 100% sure he's aware how to fight the snail first boss...

I would love for him to play the FF4 DS version, because it removed the "easytype" patch that was put onto the game when it came to the States.

Or, I would like him to revisit Fortnite. He played it 4 months ago and the game has VASTLY improved since then with their patches and updates.
Or revisit Hearthstone, with the PvE content so he doesn't get r a p e d by the ladder.

It's confirmed he'll never go back to Siege or for any older games he played before in general, as he said first impressions are everything and he doesn't need to go back to it; new games get him the views. That's why he's throwing such a big bitchfit about Monster Hunter World, he played the beta with a couple random fans who didn't know anything and based his experience to the whole game.

LISA the painful

because its unforgiving as hell

and I think a play through of ftl would be "great" as well
 
Prince of Persia, the sands of time.

A wonderful collection of fun and innovative platforms combined with some good (if repetitive) fighting.

Not to mention a crackerjack story.

Its a purebred fan favourite and a game that I really love, that Phil would absolutely murder.

I want to destroy something beautiful and then watch the fans bite back.

DSP playing any Fire Emblem game would be amazing, preferably the ones without "casual" mode where units come back after finishing a chapter.
 
I'd love to see Phil play through the first two Max Payne games. His run of the third game was a disaster, and the first two games are even more difficult. I wanna see him snort at all the enemies in the first game that camp behind doors/around blind corners with shotguns.
