Favorite classic game

Super Mario Brothers. I know that's cliche but Mario was THE MAN when I was younger. And it's a game that I can play today and still feel somewhat challenged by.

It's a cliche for a reson, because it's GOOD.

Isn't that one of the things that makes it so great? it can never get old.

Either Excitebike if you want to go really far back or Age of Empires 2 if that's allowed.

Spyro: Year of The Dragon. screw what people says about Spyro, because they have probably never played the ps1 games (the ps2 and 360 games suck balls).

Heroes of Might and Magic 3. BEST GAME EVARR. also the first game i ever played.

Link to the Past. It launched very early in the SNES' life, but it was considered the #1 game for the console for nearly 5 years. This game is the cornerstone of the franchise; every Zelda game released within the past 18 years has mimicked Link to the Past in some way, shape, or form.

GALAGA

I loved that game. I've got it on my NES, but I'll be damned if I don't suck at it.

Earthbound.I win.

There's a problem with that. You can't "win" an opinion-based thread.

nope...earthbound wins. it even beats, dare i say it, my shining force 2.

Obviously it depends on what your definition of classic is.

I consider Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie to be the greatest games ever made because of the premise. An action/adventure/platform game where you play a honey bear in yellow shorts with a blue backpack containing his sidekick, who travels through various themed worlds collecting musical notes, puzzle pieces and friendship. I enjoyed the games back then, but looking back on them, I love them all the more because it was around this time that most of the creativity in games began to die off (in my opinion obviously).

The games werent just creative, they were good at being creative. You could fight a giant inflatable dinosaur called Mr. Patch, patch a bucket called Leaky to drain a pool revealing sand castle, rescue the peaceful Jingo natives and fight a series of battles against a bumbling henchman who gradually becomes more vocal about his distaste for the work he does.

Greatest. Game. Ever.

Love. Love. Love. Love it.

Wasteland. Many hours of my youth wasted there.

I dont know if im going too far back, but space invaders. just because of its originality and how fun it was to play when I was younger.

 

[Under The Chestnut Tree]

Grim Fandango.

 

[DiscountSkill]

Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Damn Tommy dolls...

Tony Hawk Skateboarding 1. It was just so awesome, and challenging for somebody new to gaming. (Me.)

Great game. Two was fun too.

But not classic enough.

GALAGA

I think it is classic enough. It was a pioneer for a genre, one of the original PS1 releases and easily 10 years old if not older.
