Spyro. Hard stop. Beat over 100% several times. Loved the platform mechanics, the visuals, the humor, and the sense of wonder. Lovely games that basically scratches that itch of a mobile collecting game but with a story to follow and purpose for doing it.

The Halo franchise is also up there but i actually was just one of the people that just built maps in forge for custom game modes and think that was super fun, limits that made me more creative with how i built the maps. Then to see them get played and filled with people was always so fun.

Two games on the C64: “The Castles of Dr. Creep” and “Elite”. The first was a jump-and-run platform game with incredibly simple and lowres graphics, but perfect for two cooperating players. The second was the absolute classic space game by Braben and Bell.

Gridder for C64

Sonic, streets of rage, tekken 2 and 3. Original gta, WWF attitude. Crash bandicoot.

GoldenEye , Diddy Kong racing and Mario kart.

GTA 3 , Vice city and San Andreas. Halo 1-3, Kotor 1-2, mass effect trilogy. Wipeout games. Skate 3, OG tony hawk games. Original modern warfare 2, morrowind, oblivion and skyrim. Final fantasy 7,8,9 and 10, also the splinter cell series.

Thats all that comes to mind but I would have spent a good amount of time on them throughout the years.

Super Mario Bros., Balloon Fight, that one Robocop game for the NES, Sonic The Hedgehog and a top-down strategy shooter for the Genesis/Mega Drive that I can’t remember the name of.

Now you’ve got me longing for my old Atari back. My top 3 games by a country mile were:

Supercars 2 - must have played it through a thousand times.

Ellie Frontier - sank many hours in to it despite never being very good at combat.

Sensible soccer - one of the most fun games I’ve ever played. Would often play with my step dad. Some epic matches.

These days you can emulate old consoles almost perfectly, with a lot of quality of life improvements. The whole memory can be written and retrieved in milliseconds so you can save everywhere and anywhere.

A raspberry pi 4 can emulate any console up to the N64. I’m still running a pi 3. The 3 can’t do the N64 well. I’m unsure how good the pi 4 is with the graphics of the N64.

I can run basically any game published before 1995. It’s just a matter of finding roms. They used to be easy to get, but Nintendo got angry with websites that were hosting them. So now you have to dig a little more to get them.

As a kid, probably Lode Runner. It ran on my pc. Some arcade games were fun. I enjoyed Asteroids. Colossal Cave, and the Infocom games like Planetfall were fun too. Though what really hooked me was Doom. It was the first real 3d FPS game and it blew my mind. It’s been my favorite genre ever since.

Anyone said Worms 2 yet?

Fuckin hell, that was hilarious while stoned as fuck.

Don’t think they ever surpassed that one

TheGreenGolem ,

Armageddon and World Party were pretty decent.

Defaced ,

Mario RPG, half life 2, and Halo 1, those are easily my top 3 games.

Think Quick! immediately comes to mind as the an early one I played a lot of, followed by Mines of Titan.

I am not sure I could go through the 90’s games that left lasting impressions on me. I guess Homeworld, Sacrifice, Marathon, Alpha Centauri, and Chrono Trigger have occupied a massive amount of my mind for ages now, haha.

syphon filter and syphon filter 2. The multiplayer against my cousin where we just ran around and throw grenades at each other was just pure fun.

FontMasterFlex ,

the first syphon filter was so mind blowing as a teen.

Sonic Mega Collection was a game I absolutely loved and provided a ton of hours of my free time when I felt like playing it. That, and around middle school I got really into Borderlands 1 and have been in love since.

Mega Man X on the snes was my favorite for the console, the day I got to play the first time I managed to beat Chill Penguin, Spark Mandrill and Armored Armadillo. I couldn’t for the life of me, for the next 5 or so hours, beat any other boss. That I played that long without any progress probably shows my dedication.

Donkey Kong Country 2 was my second fave. Never managed to “legally” get all 75 kremcoins, or beat all the 5 special stages back then. Hell, even getting to the final world was a challenge back then.

On the ps1, Mega Man Legends 1 and X5. I’m only counting the games I played when I was “a kid” (< 12yo). I still love most Mega Man games.

Mega Man X

I personally maintain that the first Megaman X is the best game ever made. The controls are so tight, even modern developers have a hard time achieving something similar, the progression is straight up perfect, the story is great and the blend of easy/hard secrets allows for a lot of replayability for a game that old.
