Magic carpet. no doubt, that was my favorite!

I also really liked warcraft 2, red alert... dark reign.. uhh..
Basically any RTS really. I loved building stuff :D.

I wasn't big on platform games.. because i could never win!
I played commander keen, the old duke nukem games and such. Was fun.

I played wolfenstein but i didn't love it. I absolutely loved duke nukem 3d and quake. 't was awesome!

Karnov (nes)

I forgot to add that. Classic game, a fat russian circus strong man that got a new power each level. You could scroll through the powers by pressing select. So much fun, it really opened my imagination. But I'll never forget the hard faught conclusion was nothing but a screen shot that said Congratulations!

Despite owning a Genesis during my childhood I spent alot of my time playing my dads old amstrad and atari games. Pacman, digger dan and aztec challenge to name a few. Using a joystick that came out of a plastic beatles back...those were the good old nonsensical days...

it was this game on the old ps1 and i cant for the life of me remember what it was called but, well, imagen REZ except it was in space with big robots. i spent about a week on that almost non stop and by the end of the week my head was fucked up. then i while ago i drew on that week in my life to write a novella so it was worth it in the end and with no ill effect *twitch*

Most of the time it seems I still am like a child, so I still play lots of games as one. Teehee.

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG TRILOGY!!!

Seriously, as a young kid, before the Saturn came along, in the UK if you didn't own a Megadrive and Sonic, you weren't speaking to.

My favourite? I refuse to choose!

Way of the Exploding Fist [http://www.mobygames.com/game/c64/way-of-the-exploding-fist/screenshots/gameShotId,193942/] & to follow IK+ [http://www.allegro.cc/depot/IKPC-IKRemake]

Mercenary [http://www.zzap64.co.uk/zzap11/mercenary.html]

Carrier Command [http://www.mobygames.com/game/carrier-command]

Uridium [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uridium]

Not to forget Wizball, Bards Tale & sequels (who wouldn't enjoy burning those damn 99 skeletons for major damage? :) Leaderboard [http://www.c64-wiki.com/index.php/Leaderboard], Armalyte, Last Ninja, LN2 and a bit later on came Powermonger, always got a real powertrip out of that one.

oh god there's more :( Commando, Bionic Commando, Ikari Warriors (Ralf & Clark before KoF) & Guerilla War, Street Fighter (1 that is, and all good following scrolling & 1on1 beat-em-ups in the arcades)

wasn't 'legally' a kid anymore when i spent in excess of £800 on Daytona USA but I was loved up like one :)

Stunt Car Racer, Pilotwings, Golden Axe, Chase HQ, Platoon, Op. Wolf, Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, FF6, Axelay, Biometal(JP) (Probably the only person who thought this game had one of the most effective force devices - must be played on the hardest difficulty), Tatsujin(Truxton), Assault Suit(s) Leynos(Battlefield Earth) & Valken(Cybernator), Rise of the Triads, Shadow Warrior... - oh god I'd better stop :(

ps. oh and Thrust [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dt44PEIWBRg] & The Killing Cloud [http://amr.abime.net/review_37506]

so sue me for being nostalgic but these were great days even if sometimes it was more 'idea' than execution,
on the other hand though, at least gamers today v. rarely have to deal with contentious collision detection & leaf switches. meh :/

My first video game experience were the NES and shortly after the SNES, my favorite game was Secret of Mana. My first PC game was Might&Magic 3. I still love both :)
