So Played ~50%, most of those are great games.

My game is Beneath A Steel Sky (available with SCUMMVM). I play it around once a year. It's a point and click adventure set in a dystopian future, so nothing changes from play to play, but I enjoy it so much I have to give it a play each year.

 

[justnotcricket]

Lemmings (First game I can ever remember playing), Sim City 2000, Silent Hunter (was that the name of it? It was a submarine game - i liked the deck gun =D). Those are my *oldest* favourites. Just 'old' would be Donkey Kong games on the Game Boy, and Beyond Good and Evil. But 'old' is a relative term I guess =)

 

[TMAN10112]

Galega, I just can't get enough of that game.

 

[Kasil]

Define "Oldy".

N64-era? Ocarina of Time.

SNES? Link to the Past or Earthbound.

NES? The Legend of Zelda.

 

[Fightgarr]

I wasn't really around then... but I do love Sam & Max Hit the Road. Makes me wish LucasArts would stop sucking so much.

Sam and Max was Telltale not LucasArts. Or did LucasArts produce it? I know for a fact that it was Telltale that developed it.

My favorite oldies are: Chrono Trigger (for obvious reasons), Starcraft, Front Mission, Lost Vikings. Boogerman was awesome too, but I haven't played in so long that it may be terrible for all I know.

There are quite a few games that launched around the beginning/middle of the N64/PS1 era that I enjoyed b ut to be safe I just picked my favorite DOS games.

Also, regarding the 100 games challenge, I own (and still probably possess) 74%, have played or heard of 86%, so I guess I get a B?

 

[Velocirapture07]

I didn't have console games when I was younger, but I did have some computer games. WAIT, I did play my dad's old intellivision some. Pitfall and Burger Time!!! Those are my oldy favorites.

Ah, I just love old games. Way better than the current trash that's been put out nowadays.

All those Final Fantasy VII fans fail to realize that Final Fantasy VI was truly the pinnacle of the entire series.

ditto

Impressive list. I probably haven't played even half of these but I can still find many of my favorites there.

Haven't played many of my favs for years, but the Mega Man series for NES would probably be something I've played more frequently as I usually play through them once a year or so.

Same. Changed to include my "wth" options.

 

[Artemis923]

Gunstar Heroes, Contra III, Tie Fighter, Heroes of Might and Magic, Final Fantasy.

I could go on all day, so I'll leave it at that.

 

[RheynbowDash]

for me?

this one is way outta left field:

"Zombies Ate My Neighbors"

 

[SecretTacoNinja]

Pokemon Silver. Or Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Both are awesome games even now, and both got me addicted to video games.

I don't care if they're not that old, they're what I would define as Classics.

EDIT: Oh and Comix Zone! We had that for computer, and it ruled baby!

 

[Faeanor]

I feel discriminated against being as the N64 was my first console. It's all good though

Lunatic Fringe was the best thing in the world back in the day. Sadly I doubt anybody else knows what this is.

Also the java game wormhole WAS THE best thing ever. It was such a shame to see it die

 

[Jumpman]

super mario world. quite possibly still my favorite game.

 

[Cgee]

NES: Adventure Island, Dragon Warrior, Super Mario Bros (1-3)
SNES: Donkey Kong, Super Mario World, Megaman X, Yoshi's Island
