These could be games that left a lasting impression on you, games that had stellar gameplay mechanics, characters that captivated you, games that you played tons of hours on, etc.

Chase HQ on the famicom is one of the first games I've ever played and I especially loved playing it on the arcade even though I wasn't very good at it. Chrono Trigger is the other game that I still love.

syphon filter and syphon filter 2. The multiplayer against my cousin where we just ran around and throw grenades at each other was just pure fun.

[–] FontMasterFlex@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

the first syphon filter was so mind blowing as a teen.

Adventure of Link

Ultimately V

Ultimately VI

Wing Commander

I guess I really liked Origin.

Lemmings, AoE, RCT

[–] Visitor72@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 years ago

Probably all the Nintendo 2d and 2.5d racers. RC ProAm, another similar one with boats, and one with trophy trucks (that may have been arcade-only). I liked cars. Super Mario Bros 1 also.

Think Quick! immediately comes to mind as the an early one I played a lot of, followed by Mines of Titan.

I am not sure I could go through the 90's games that left lasting impressions on me. I guess Homeworld, Sacrifice, Marathon, Alpha Centauri, and Chrono Trigger have occupied a massive amount of my mind for ages now, haha.

Played a lot of games... But the NES didn't really have that many standouts for me. I could write an extensive list of games I played for a lot of hours but out of the raft of games there wasn't many that particularly were a favorite more like a dichotomy of whether each bit of the list enjoyable and not. The SNES was definitely Super Mario RPG, Donkey Kong Country and Chronotrigger but it was the N64 that got me games that I replayed like crazy.

Zelda Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Super Smash Bros, Harvest Moon 64, Snowboard Kid's 2 and Diddy Kong Racing made the top of that list. Those were fucking awesome games.

By the time I got a PS2 I was technically an adult and Nintendo never really recaptured my heart like it did when I was a kid. I have been a playstation loyalist since then but that N64 still has a spot in my basement.

PS2 really had the bangers.

FFX, Devil May Cry series, and MGS3 were awesome.

Moved over to the 360 and played MW2 / Halo 3 with the bros in highschool.

Oh yeah dmc was realy good though i just watched my brother play it, i only actually played last year with the hd collection

The second game is torture but i finished somehow

[–] malchior@aussie.zone 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Crusader: No Remorse and it's sequel. FMV cut scenes, isometric shenanigans. I would love a modern day remake that obviously isn't a shitty cash grab.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

There's something special about those old FMV games. Sega CD had a bunch. Megarace is another that always comes to mind. And Mad Dog McCree!
