The original Ninja Gaiden on Nes. Man I loved that game, Little League Baseball from SNK rocked all ass too. I used to keep full stats on all the players (including pitching) in that game in a notebook.

A giant robot fighting game back around '98 called Star Siege. The online gaming had me addicted.

can't believe no one mentioned the original Diablo

most of my favs as far as hours spent playing them are on the SNES... chrono trigger, FF3, Secret of mana, mario 3, etc.

then there's NES.... Excitebike! haha

Quake (yes i still play it) Doom & Doom 2, Quake III, battlefield 1942, AVP2, FarCry, civilization 2, star control 2, fallout 1 & 2, diablo 2, halo, red alert 1 & 2, red faction, STEEL PANTHERS, resident evil, any of the "Worms" games. commander keen... gosh, what else. i know there's a bunch more.


also a little-known game called Mordor and it's sequel Demise. bet no one here has ever played em

(BTW I was surprised to see some people mention Wasteland... NICE!!! that is one of my favs too. also Dragon Wars and Abuse. oh, and Greed.)

yeah, my youth was a complete waste

Unreal Tournament for PC. Been playing it exclusively (haven't really touched any other games since discovering it) ever since the demo back in '98 or '99. It's utterly destroyed my life, but hey, at least I have fun playing it.

more accurate description would be mech game

part of the metaltech/earthsiege series... in fact it's the last game set in that universe to involve HERC (the name for the "giant robots") combat (everything since has been the tribes series)

Hmm. When I first saw this thread, my reaction was "Oh, that's an easy question for me." However, after thinking about it is kind of difficult.

I think that my favorite game is probably Jet Set Radio, but I also really like the Halo series, and Uniracers.

Uniracers is a really cool SNES game where you race unicycles. It is good, but what really makes me like it is that I don't know anyone else who has played it, which makes it seem kind of unique.

starseige tribes, a massive online fps

I noticed someone mentioned starseige, also a fun game but totally different. Starseige is piloting mechs while tribes is humans in armor with jetpacks.

 

[ooheadsoo]

Nothing takes me back like the original Tribes. Oh, the memories. And I wasn't even ever one of those guys who could midair like nobody's business.

MUDs, yes. text-based games are the awesome!

The last levels are pretty hard, but Uniracers and the T Hawk P Skate games have some of the best difficulty curves I have ever experienced, so it was OK.
