What games do you always return to for nostalgic purposes?

I play through Zelda: A Link To The Past about once every two years.

I was 13 when I played it the first time. My parents were still together and I really miss the house we lived in back then.

I've go a plan to make enough money to buy that back someday. That would be so awesome.

Crash Team Racing, Crash Bandicoot 2 and Spyro on the Playstation. Sigh...whatever happened to awesome platformers?

MULE on the Commodore 64
Sid Meier's Pirates! - Commodore 64, or newer pc versions
Shadow of the Colossus
Final Fantasy VI (although I never finish it for some reason)
Dragon's Lair

I still love einhander and rascal for the PS1. I doubt anyone will remember them though.

For me it has to be the original Quake. I know that game backside first and front and back.

Definitely agree on those titles, though it typically takes something (like this list) to refresh my memory and make me dive back in. Usually I'll just grab whatever is being offered up on the PSN store and download it to my PSPgo if it peaks my interest.

Project Snowblind. Got it years ago, and I still love to go back to it.

 

[WillCourt]

Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie.

Recently purchased on Xbox Live Arcade, and I can honestly say I do kind of miss the "collect everything you see" approach to gaming in a way.

 

[Gearran]

Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, and Final Fantasy VI.

I've never actually had a nostalgia attack, I tried playing some games I really loved on my original Xbox and PS2 and thought, "Wow, you certainly haven't aged well (Black, KOTOR 1&2, Jade Empire, NFS Most Wanted, to name a few)" those are great games in themselves but really, has gaming come along so little since last I played those games that I would be instantly stricken with nosatgia? No says I.

Replaying Unreal + return to Na Pali at the moment for perhaps the millionth time.

I've reinstalled both Morrowind and Oblivion a shocking number of times. I also make it a point to play Doom every time it gets released on a new platform. I'm pretty sure that makes me a sucker seeing as I have: DOS version (3.14" floppy!), Win95 version, SNES version, GBA version and XBL Arcade version.
