What's your favorite computer/video game(s) ever?

[KingLouieLouie]

I must admit that I havent had my own video game system since '93 when I had the Sega Genesis, but I lost interest in video games at that time.... I also had an Atari 800 (or 400), Nintendo, and Turbo Graphics 16 (immediately returned it once I discovered it was just 8-bit).....

I was quite the "video game junkie" back then....Spent several hours a day playing game after game after game...yada yada yada...

My favorite games on Atari was Pole Position, Spy Hunter, Centipede, Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Agent USA, Frogger, Donkey Kong, Pitstop, Pitfall, etc.. I could spend countless hours naming off others, but those are the ones that immediately came to mind with that system...

Nintendo.... Mike Tyson's Punch-out, Ice Hockey, T&C Surf Designs, Double Dribble, Blades of Steel, Baseball Stars, (yeah was heavily into the sports games as one can tell and had many more).... Golgo-13, Ninja Gaiden, Super Mario, Renegade, Breakthru, Metal Gear, etc....

Sega Genesis....Bulls vs. Lakers, Joe Montana Sports Talk Football, Hardball, Sonic the Hedgehog, Desert Strike..etc...

I could list several more, but now it's your turn........

Oh yeah, who can possibly forget Pong?

For some reason, I used to love the Atari version of Raiders of the Lost Ark. I could never get out of the damn Well of Souls though!

Atari 2600:

River Raid, Solaris, Adventure, Enduro....

I just got an Atari 2600 a few months back, and bought a bunch of games on Ebay for cheap...it's been a blast to play it again.

Legend of Zelda...NES

I remember I got this game when the NES came out in '85....it is still one of the coolest games ever

 

[thirty-two]

I always liked Mario Kart for SNES.

 

[mdamien13]

Atari - Centipede, Space Invaders
Intellivision - Tron, Baseball
NES - Castlevania, Contra (still remember the code for 40 lives), Ninja Gaiden
Sega Genesis - Jerry Glanville's Pigskin Footbrawl, Splatterhouse 3, Joe Montana's QB Football

 

[Pariah]

Old (original) Atari: Adventure
Nintendo: Super Punchout or Tecmobowl
Sega Genesis: EA Sports Hockey

 

[maddogkf]

Atari - Adventrue, Combat, Real Sports Football, & Pitfall

 

[MaoTosiFanClub]

Where do I start?

NES Sports - Tecmo & Super Tecmo Bowl, Baseball Stars (anyone who says Bases Loaded is on crystal meth), Double Dribble, Blades of Steel, Excitebike, California Games, Punch Out, Super Dodgeball

NES Other - Spy Hunter, Mario I & III (once got laid because a girl bet me I couldn't beat Mario I without dying), Jaws (very underrated), Double Dragon II, Contra, Rad Racer

I'm sure I'm forgetting some classics. Fantasy people - don't get pissed off at my exclusion of Zelda and Castlevania. I was and still am not that into those kind of games. More of a sports guy.

I loved NHL 97 or was it 95 on Sega

You could go after a guy and break his leg.

Then in one of the first years of Madden you could tackle somebody after the play and injure them....I remember I took out Dan Marino and he was gone for the season and my roomate looked like he was going to cry

I loved Baseball All Stars because you could win and buy better stats for your players. One time I knocked the **** out of my brother because he dropped the cartrage and erased my entire team....took me like 9 months to build. The music on Baseball All Stars was horrible...it played over and over and over....I almost went on a 4 state killing spree one summer

Now that I just CANT believe!!

I liked it when you checked Gretzky in NHL Hockey and his head bled. It was money, baby.

 

[vince56]

I could go on forever

How about Ninja Gaiden, Strider (NES version), Double Dragon (NES), Sonic the Hedgehog, Hi-Octane (Playstation)...


I could go on for hours. I still have an Atari 5200 up in the closet!

 

[vince56]

ZORK!! How could I forget. I used to have an old Apple IIe, and I had Zork I, II, III, and Beyond Zork. Fun, fun games.

No votes for Duckhunt?

GoldenEye for N64

We weren't allowed to play duckhunt because my mom said the gun made too much noise.

Did anyone have an NES that had the robot? I think I still have my robot some where. I had the power glove too!

 

[vince56]

Power Glove

Man did that thing suck! I got one for christmas when I was very young. It was terrible!!

Y'all are forgetting the best of the old school consoles.

Colecovision.

Had the best DOnkey Kong of the time, and dont forget BurgerTime and QBert!

 

[Cardinals.Ken]

There were a couple of games I played the heck out of on the old Intellivision..."Utopia" was one of them, and the other was a space-shooter where you had to position your fighters to defend against the alien fleets...the name of it escapes me right now...

Then of course, there was Tecmo Super Bowl, Super Metroid, Zelda, Final Fantasy III (which I finished in one sitting!) and now Medal of Honor and Battlefield 1942.

Baseball All Stars was awesome.

Me, my bro, & a friend played it alot one summer. The one thing that sucked was that the winning team was the only one to get $$$ - so it was a catch 22 - once you got on a winning streak - you were tough to beat.

My team was the green one that looked like the A's. My players were all Viking names.

 

[maddogkf]

A friend of mine had Odyssey gaming system - KC Munchkin was a game similar to Pac Man.

Colecovision was cool.

Intellivision was cool too. I beat my cousin in basketball like 188-0. Their sports games were top notch at the time.

 

[Ryanwb]

in 1982 I remember playing colecovision while I stayed at my neighbor's house because my brother was being born. I was so excited to get a new little brother....then I played colecovision.

My parents came home and said, "Ryan, meet your little brother"

I was like, "Later, must, finish, game"

I was only like 5 or 6 but I was hooked, thankfully Nintendo came out 3 years later and I haven't left the couch since
