I was given Nintendo Gamecube for Christmas and it came with all the Zelda games. The original Zelda was one of my fav games when I was a kid. I also have Zelda for Super Nintendo the original Game Boy and Game Boy Advanced. My other fav games are Super Mario World and Zombies ate my Neighbors which I play on Super Nintendo.

[TrueB&B_BritFan]

DUDE!!.. there's this NEW one... it's called "Pong" :eek:...

there's a little dot that moves around the screen and you have to move these controllers to make the little lines move around to hit the dot and make it go back to the other side :blueeek:

:p

[Britney Freak]

I have many. I'm a huge Resident Evil Fan.
Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (I'm glad you can go back a watch the cut scenes at the end. Those are so off the hook.)
Huge Zelda fan( But regrets still haven't finish the Wind Waker and I bought it the day it came out)
All-time Favorite has to be Splinter Cell. It's a shame I have to wait until July to get the sequel but from what I hear it's worth the wait.

[x~sane_psycho~x]

DUDE!!.. there's this NEW one... it's called "Pong" :eek:...

[bekahbeans]

Every Zelda game except Zelda 2, and especially Ocarina of Time
Paper Mario
Chrono Trigger
Grand Theft Auto 3
Viewtiful Joe
Earthworm Jim

[db44]

Warcrafts II&III
Starcraft
Bunch of old games on CD, i.e. the Atari and Intellivision collections.
Used to love Space Quest games.

Once at one of my jobs we got a promotional copy of a game called "Postal," we had fun with it but the game was just soooooooo wrong.

Leisure Suit Larry? :p

[bekahbeans]

What's Postal?


and you really need to play some newer games. You sound old :p

[db44]

Postal was sick. It was a bird's-eye view game where you play a disgruntled postal worker armed with a shotgun. :manson:

[bekahbeans]

lmao

that rocks.

[TrueB&B_BritFan]

Paper Mario
I saw a preview of Paper Mario 2 for GC :eek:... looked good :o

and Metroid 2 and Star Fox 2 ;) hehe... although I don't really like quite so much all the Fox's runnning around in those games now :o... what happened to the old days when you just flew your cool ship around the galaxy? :o

[bekahbeans]

You take that back. It did not look good. What an inferior word. It looked amazing, gorgeous, stupendous, marvelous, fantastic, divine. Those words.


ha, I remember Starfox for SNES. I liked to let that stupid bird just die and ignore his rude remarks. And that sniveling frog. How I hated him as well.


My brother is obsessed with Metroid. I do not see the appeal with that game. :susp2:

[Britney Freak]

I remember back in the day where I'd play the original Lesure Suit Larry when my father wasn't home. Now that I play it now what was the big deal about it.

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow is one of my new favorites.

[TrueB&B_BritFan]

My brother is obsessed with Metroid. I do not see the appeal with that game. :susp2:
in the SNES version, if you do REALLY good in the game (get all the stuff/fast time)... she takes her suit off down to like bikini at the credits ;) :laugh:

[Keronothnetophobia]

Atari- Keystone Caper's...
Nintendo- Duck Hunt
Sega- Toe Jam and Earl
Sega Saturn- Mortal Kombat 3

[TrueB&B_BritFan]

[Keronothnetophobia]

*ducks toy airplane*.. DAMN those triple shopping carts!! :mad:
GOSH! I used to play that game till my eyes hurt when I was like 5! lol! I think it ruined my mind.....!;)

[bekahbeans]

in the SNES version, if you do REALLY good in the game (get all the stuff/fast time)... she takes her suit off down to like bikini at the credits ;) :laugh:


*snort* Gee, let me waste my time playing just for that. :p

[Lizzyborden02]

Leisure Suit Larry? :p

LMAO, YES! I want to get this game when it comes out. It looks hilarious. hehe

Anyway here's my list that is definitely superior to any of yours.

Every Zelda, Final Fantasy, and harvest moon game ever created.
Champions of Norrath
The Summoner
Star Ocean(PS1)
Kingdom Hearts
Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball (Sexay!)
Morrowind
Super Mario All-Stars
SimAnt
Soul Calibur (Even though I suck at it)
Breath of Fire
Golden Sun
Dark Cloud 1&2
Shining Force
Beyond Oasis


And this lovely little game for hardcore gamers like me...lol: http://www.homestarrunner.com/disk4of12.html

[bekahbeans]

Soul Cailbur is one of your favorites?

I'm better at it than you are.

[Lizzyborden02]

You wish you were you loser.

[bekahbeans]

I can beat my brothers. Can you? Didn't think so.

I win.

[db44]

When it comes out? Vol. III was out while I was in high school. A new re-make I guess?

[Lizzyborden02]

Wow, Dave.

You're OLD.


*giggles*

[bekahbeans]

What's Leisure Suit Larry?



Oh I forgot one of the best games ever: Earthworm Jim. "Whooooooaaa Nelly!!!"

[Lizzyborden02]

Look it up stupid.

And you already said Earthworm Jim. You amateur.

[db44]

First there was King's Quest, a cross between an action game and a text adventure. It was set in the time of castles and knights. It was action-like in that their was a big window on top where you used a joystick to manuver your character around the scene, avoiding obsticles and enemies. It was text in that text windows would pop up to describe things (usually in a humorous fashion) and there were some actions you had to type in, such as "pick up slime."

The format and the game were both popular. It spawned sequel King's Quest before turning to the future with Space Quest, which was the series I liked best. You played Roger Wilco, space-age janitor who becomes the last-best hope to save the galaxy. That too had something like five titles.

After that Sierra (the games' parent company) release a game for the (then) present: Police Quest. This was eh. I played the first one, and I learned some stuff about what cops legally can and can't do, but it lacked the humor of the other games... Still there were three PQ titles or so.

Then came Larry... The adult quest game. The game started off by asking questions which children supposedly couldn't answer... Suppoedly. Things like "who had a hit with the song Blah Blah in the 1960's?" Once you answered the three questions, you were in the world of Larry. You played a lounge lizard and I think the objective was to have sex with three women. If you thought the others were funny, then this was a riot. Watching Larry get it on was more like watching dogs go at it in the park, and was half as quick.

Ahh, the 80's.

And that's your video game history lesson for this morning.

[Lizzyborden02]

I played something like "King's Quest," a loooong time ago. But it was called Camelot. You'd type north or west or whatever way you wanted to go and different screens would pop up showing the scenery or the people in that area. You played as Lancelot and you were supposed to solve puzzles in every screen, rescue knights, and of course find the holy grail.

I just remember this one part where you came upon this big tent and in it was a lady trying to seduce you. You'd type in whatever and she'd keep begging you to come to bed or kiss her or take off her clothes, etc. I was probably like 10 years old and I remember getting all nervous if my mom came in the room. lol, like I'd get in trouble if she saw the screen. Anyways if you typed "yes," or "get in bed," she of course turns into a monster and kills you. If you typed "no," the people would start calling you "Lancelot the chaste."

Yeah. I know you're thinking what an exciting game :rolleyes: but it was the sh** back then. You posers.

[db44]

It was the S**t back then, although Camelot was a different game.

[bekahbeans]

Look it up stupid.

And you already said Earthworm Jim. You amateur.


I already said it? Wow I'm slipping.

Well I say it again to add emphasis! Earthworm Jim rocked.


And I don't want to look it up. I'm lazy.

[rockerdude]

my fave games are anything with mario in it.

[bekahbeans]

This one time, I had a dream I was mario, and I was in Bowser's castle, but I fell in the lava.

The end.

[misty twilight]

LMAO @ Dave :)

I remember playing Transylvania, before King's Quest even! Leisure Suit Larry is coming out with a new one called Magna Cum Laude, on the XBOX and I believe the PC as well. It's the latest "addition" to the series. A lot of people who remember the originals are really excited about it. Those who don't are just excited because they like the idea, not because they actually understand the idea ;)

My favorites is probably a list way too long, so I will try to narrow it down to a few

Shining Force III
Final Fantasy VII
Any Metroid game - yes any, and can't wait for Metroid Prime 2!
Splinter Cell
Dr. Mario
Any and all Castlevania's except the N64 versions
Amplitude
Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance
Gauntlet
Phantasy Star
Legend of Legaia
Suikoden I, II and III
Xenogears
Resident Evil 1 and 2
Lunar
Lunar 2
Arc the Lad Collection Rocked!
Final Fantasy Tactics and Tactics Advanced
Legacy of Kain series


and the list goes on...

[Lizzyborden02]

Those who don't are just excited because they like the idea, not because they actually understand the idea

*snort*

Don't be stupid. How could you not understand "the idea."

Doesn't take a genius.

[misty twilight]

I meant an understanding in the manner that you haven't actually played the previous games, so you couldn't have a true feeling for what the game is about. Not that you aren't smart enough to figure out the gist, just that you can't understand until you have played :)

[cunnulingus]

I LOVE the Metroid series too! I just got a Gamecube witht he Metroid Prime 2 bonus disk

[AguileraLover11]

I know it is old, but I still love to play my Final Fantasy. It is a sure classic for me and is a game that I never get tired of.

[bekahbeans]

I still love Final Fantasy 3 the best.


Ever played Chrono Trigger? I think that's the one I'm thinking of. Anyway, it's a lot like Final Fantasy and it's hilarious. You actually get to sing in an opera at one point. It's so kick ass.

[Lizzyborden02]

No you're thinking final fantasy. I remember cause I have that whole song memorized. lol, isn't that sad. I have that game, it's number 6 and one of my favorites.

And I just bought Chrono Trigger about a month ago. That game kicks some serious ass. It's the remastered version that was for ps1 and came with a final fantasy game. "Final Fantasy Chronicles."

I am so cool. hehe

[bekahbeans]

Is it in Final Fantasy? OK, I always get the two mixed up, but that is the best part. They both rock.

[TrueB&B_BritFan]

what about Chrono Cross?... I have that.. it was the sequel to Chrono Trigger.. haven't played it though..

*fights e-vil octopus in rafters of the Opera house* :eek:

[TrueB&B_BritFan]

I still love Final Fantasy 3 the best.

NO NO NO!!...
do NOT believe the LIES that have been told to us in America!!!... "III" was really VI, and "II" was really IV!!!... *feels deceived by game industry* :greyno:

[bekahbeans]

I think my brother has Chrono Cross but I don't think I've played it. I'll have to look at it next time I'm home.

And uh, ok, 3 6, 10655462. I don't really care. The point is, that's the one I Like the most.

[rockerdude]

This one time, I had a dream I was mario, and I was in Bowser's castle, but I fell in the lava.

The end.
cool dream. if i was mario, i would like nothing more than to kick bowser's fat ass, but then who would Mario fight? Wario? Ya right. Wario body slams him, BOOM. Mario gone. But still, Mario has other enemies besides Bowser. Like:

SMITHY: Super Mario: Legend Of TheSeven Stars
WART: Super Mario Land 2
CACKLETTA: Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
GRODUS: Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
WARIO: Super Mario Land: 6 Golden Coins
WALUIGI: Mario Tennis
As you can plainly see, everyone wants a piece of mario. oh ya, i just remembered: come to me when you want to know where star pieces are in paper mario, i'll give you the guide. or if you want little fun facts, like how to find luigi's diary. THAT i never would have found out if i didn't try. here's a clue: the floorboards in mario's house are loose. there's your hint.:wink: no more clues right now............well, maybe one more: check out the floorboards: are they ALL facing the same direction? that should be enough clues.........................
