Sciaphobia, do games w What were your top favorite video games as a kid?

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.

okamiueru,

Recently set up a Recalbox on a Retroflag box. Will check these out. Thanks for the recommendation.

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.

painfulasterisk1,

I love Chrono Trigger. I still listen to the OST at least once a month.

cyd,

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.

Honestly though, how do you even follow it up? That game had a ridiculous dev team.

  • Akira Toriyama - creator/Artist of Dragon Ball
  • Nobuo Uematsu - Writer of (many) Final Fantasy scores
  • Yūji Horii - game designer and scenario writer from Dragon Quest
  • Hironobu Sakaguchi - Game director/designer/producer of Final Fantasy
  • Kazuhiko Aoki - (Getting this whole gang together)

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.

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.

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.

Smash Bros N64. Every day at lunchtime, we would inhale our food as fast as possible so we had a chance to play a few rounds

Also Goldeneye N64

Buddahriffic,

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.

PS2 really had the bangers.

FFX, Devil May Cry series, and MGS3 were awesome.

Moved over to the 360 and played MW2 / Halo 3 with the bros in highschool.

My personal favourite is somewhat active on there: bird.makeup/users/dark1xSadly though it is one of many areas on mastodon that is lacking.
