Don't forget Hybrid Heaven! One of the best, if not the best!

One I forgot to mention before is the relatively unknown Space Station: Silicon Valley. It's a pretty fun platformer, and pretty freakin' weird. You play as a robot's memory chip that must implant itself into different animals you find (including, but not limited to dogs, sheep, mice, penguins, lions, etc.) in order to complete missions and retrieve the robot's missing body parts. Each animal you possess has different abilities based on what they are, and many even have built-in rocket launchers/missiles you can use (or that they'll try to use against you). You'll frequently have to "kill" other creatures in order to snatch their bodies and abilities depending on objectives. Some of the missions are pretty screwed-up as well (if I remember correctly, there's one involving the player collecting several cartoonish severed heads). One of the best parts though is the fact that you can destroy the various speakers sitting around each area that play that particular level's music; something I'd highly recommend doing if you aren't fond of the intentionally cheesy elevator music.
