Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete
Final Fantasy VI

Anarchy Online

Vice City

The Black Cauldron- First game I ever played and it took me years to beat, I wasnt even in gradeschool
Kings Quest series (III, V, and VI in particular)
Monkey Island III
Advance Wars
HalfLife- This was the first game that actually got me into FPS, I was always put off by the pointless shooting before.
The Longest Journey, for being the first modern adventure game to be just as compelling as the oldschool ones were.
And I suppose Asherons Call for being the first and only MMORPG I liked. After playing open beta, I bought the game opening day and was hooked for two years of intense playing.

My first post
 

I've been reading DVDTalk forms almost every day since 1998. For the first time, I have to chime in.
Here goes:

Turok Evolution.

I've owned every system since Channel F (pre 2600), and played just about every "big time game" and most of the obscure ones, and for whatever reason, I find myself playing and replaying Turok Evolution every night. Runners up:

Zelda series, of course.
Resident Evil series
Mario kart (first two)
Doom (1 and 2)
Turok 2
Out of this world

Any body else got it this bad for Turok?

Bionic Commando - NES

Mmm.. I brought this out over the weekend. Man that game is STILL badass. Rad Spencer could take out 6 Soild Sankes.

Galaga

In fact I just sold my arcade machine today. Ever since I beat the game (all 255 stages with no cheats) I haven't had the urge to play it.

Probably the Close Combat (PC) series of games.

:drool: That's it! I'm gonna get a nes console to re-live the memories.

up,up,down,down,L,R,L,R,B,A,B,A select,start to all you old-school gamers! :D

For systems I own:

Turbo Grafx-16: Military Madness, Bomberman, Lords of the Rising sun
Saturn: Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shining Force III, Nights, Sega Rally
PlayStation: Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VII, Castlevania: SOTN, Final Fantasy Tactics
Dreamcast: Soul Calibur, Rayman 2, Jet Grind Radio
PlayStation 2: Gran Turismo 3, GTA 3, Rez
XBox: Panzer Dragoon Orta
Gamecube: Wind Waker
Gameboy SP: Final Fantasy Tactics, SMA4:SMB3, Superstar Saga

This is just off the top of my head of games I own, I know there are so many more I am forgetting. As for my all-time fave; it is too close to call between Panzer Dragoon Saga, Final Fantasy Tactics(PSX), and Final Fantasy VII.

Crystal Castles (arcade, I don't know why I fixated on that one)
Legend of Zelda (NES)
Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
Grand Theft Auto 3 (PS2)
