Video Game Nostalgia. What’s your favorite?

I could do dragons lair. To the end. It was the one game I was really good at. I have a raiden game and a pinball machine. Pinball machines break down more than classic cars.

 

As much as I would like to replay those games I don’t have that kind of time anymore. When I do I have the time or make the time I like to give new titles a shot. Titles like Drake Uncharted, Last of Us, and Witcher 3 were worth the time. The next game I’ll be playing for sure is Cyberpunk 2077. I would like it to be release early this year but if it takes a little longer to have a polish game I’m all for it.

I bought my little nephew a NES Classic. Hopefully it will teach him how to appreciate good games.

 

I always sucked at that game, would always push the joystick the wrong direction...

 

Golden Axe for Sega Genesis. Used to play with my brother all the time growing up. That, Sonic, and Streets of Rage.

 

Streets of rage, loved it.

 

Off the top of my head.. Battlefield 2. I remember buying this game and throwing it into the family computer just to have it say "upgrade your graphics card, ram, cpu, and EVERYTHING else" lol.. Ended up having a friend build me a computer to play this game a couple months later. Played the absolute sh*t out of it too.

Not my gameplay, but all I did was fly heli's and single seat



Also and I played Diablo II

 

I’m a little too young for that one, but I did play a ton of battlefield 3 on the Xbox one. A friend of mine mastered the helicopter controls and I was his gunner. We would literally go on like 20+ kill streaks in the thing. Sadly, battlefield (and call of duty) has gone to crap imo.

 

Nice! I went onto BF3 as well and carried on with the helicopters. If they could go back to some of their roots I think they could make an awesome game, especially with how far along graphics have come.
I'd love to see a new Battlefield 2142 or a continuation of some of the older Battlefields.

 

Frogger, q-bert, crystal castle, Asteroids, tempest, donkey Kong, skate or die. All games you needed to put a quarter in

 

BF2 was the first online game I played that had 64 players on one map. This was a very fun game and we played it a lot. Never got good at the aircrafts so I stayed away but held my own on the ground.

I also played D2 and loved it. My GF and I are actually playing D3 on the Switch. Couch co op brings a whole new fun to this game.

I’m not that young but this is before my time, at least until I went to an arcade. When I was playing with quarters it was Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat.

 

You forgot Paper Boy. I spent a lot of tokens on that game.



and Xevious

 

Really like SOCOM series on the PS2 and PS3 and the original Star Wars: Battlefront 1 and 2 by Pandemic studios/Lucasarts

ATV Off-road Fury was really fun too.

 

I love Mario 1, and 3, but my favorite is Super Mario World.

Bought the Nintendo Classic, then found the Raspberry Pii. It has all the Nintendo games on it, plus about 4,500 more from other systems.

That's all I could remember off the top of my head. I've put many, many hours into each of them. There are many more games I love growing up but I can't remember them all lol.

 

King's Field.

 

Fable Lost Chapters, a Dave Mira BMX game, Bomberman on N64 along with LOZ Majora's Mask. I started WoW pretty soon after launch so that holds a lot of dumb, dear teenaged-year nostalgia. GTA San Andreas was a fantastic game though probably not appropriate for the age I was when I started playing it. Lots of good memories and inside jokes came out of the GTA IV story line too.
I could never forget Crash Bandicoot WARPED, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 or Spyro either.

 

I grew up playing DOS games on the PC, and still play some of these games today using an emulator:

Sierra's Quest for Glory (I, II, III, and IV)
Accolade's Test Drive (I, II and III)
Space Quest
King's Quest
Leisure Suit Larry
Codename: Iceman
Scorched Earth
Druglord
Civilization
Civilization II
Oregon Trail

 

Oregon Trail on the MAC in elementary school was legit. I hope they still let kids play that game in elementary school.

Then we got Marathon and Flight Simulator in middle school

 

Dang this is hard! Lots of old school games played.

PC:
Doom
DukeNukem3d
Quake
Half-Life
Diablo
Original WoW (Rts game)

N64 (which i still have):
Star wars pod racers
LOZ Majoras Mask

Xbox:
Fable
Skyrim
Halo 2

 

Diablo 2/Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction on PC (Longest played game of 12 years, not anymore though. Need a remastered version! Have both Collector's Editions for Diablo 3 and Reaper Of Souls.)

The Legend of Dragoon on Playstation 1

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and GoldenEye on N64

Need for Speed Most Wanted on Playstation 2

Super Mario on Super Nintendo

Pokemon Yellow/Blue/Red on Gameboy before Gameboy Color, then it was on with color and the lighting/glass effects for immersive experience!

Twisted Metal!!!

Cyber Troopers video arcade game at my local bowling alley.
