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.
I wasn’t able to start gaming until I was around like 12, but when I did, I loved a game called Dungeon Defenders on the Xbox 360. Came out in 2011, so it’s not nearly as old as most of the games listed here.
Dungeon Defenders was actually full of modded accounts on the Xbox, and they distributed loot everywhere that did like a billion damage and one shot everything (yet somehow I still sucked at the harder maps lol). I could never enjoy the game now with all the modded shit, but back then it was fucking awesome. It’s the game that got me into modding and is the reason I’m as computer savvy as I am today, so it will always be a fond memory in my head.
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.
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.
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.
Not really my favorite, but I never see these games listed in places like this, so I’m going to be the change I want to see in the thread.
Check out Lufia and Lufia II for the Super Nintendo. It’s crazy how underrated these ended up being, and how good they were. I’ve played them semi recently, as SNES games go, and the second one still holds up well. The first is good, but feels a little more dated.
When I was a kid I used to walk to the movie store to rent games. I would go back every time I had money and rent Chrono Trigger, but some one would always erase my save, so I would have to start over.
On my birthday I got a check from my grandma that was for 50 dollars. I walked right up to the game store and slammed my check on the counter for one copy of Chrono Trigger. I didn’t know how money, checks, or sales tax worked.
Luckily, my mom bailed me out. I played that game for years. I still have such fond memories of that game.
It’s amazing that CT never spawned an ongoing franchise. Aside from the controversial CC, there have been no other followups or even remakes, only a remaster. It’s like the platonic ideal of a JRPG, sitting alone and unsullied in the timestream.
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.
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.
I can’t believe that this is the first and only mention of Goldeneye. Though it was eclipsed by Perfect Dark, those two were the best console fps games until Halo came out and finally figured out the controls.
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.
