All In The Game(ing)

[twiggymarie]

So, as a self-proclaimed nerdling, other than reading and drawing, there's not a whole lot I like more than gaming. (I blame my 80s/90s childhood for that.) I recently acquired a NES classic addition, which is pretty darn cool. It has 30 games preloaded into it, and I'm currently cursing my way through Final Fantasy.

Two questions:

What's your all-time favorite game?

What game have you most recently played?

My all-time favorites are probably: The Legend Of Zelda(NES), Morrowind (Xbox), Illusion of Gaia(Sega)

 

[DiO'Bolic]

Favorite: Atari 2600 - Starmaster

Haven't played in a long time. Probably the last game played was on the Playstation 2 - Medal Of Honor

 

[The Nameless]

I also grew up in the 80s and 90s with computers and games consoles including an amstrad 464, several ataris, Panasonic 3do, Nintendo and Sega systems. I have been a "playstation guy" in the modern era.

My favourite games are all fairly modern, my all time favourite since 2002 has been gta San andreas but since the last of us came out I'm not so sure, it at least tied for my favourite. I'd say red dead redemption is 3rd. Honourable mentions for life is strange, the uncharted series and the assassin's creed ezio trilogy.

Most recent game I've been playing is pro evolution soccer 2017.

I have a soft spot for Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda.

Myst and its descendants were the only games I ever played at home. Otherwise, I spent endless hours in arcades in the early 80s playing Donkey Kong, Frogger, Ms. Pac Man, Centipede, etc.

I liked the original Tron in arcades.
Contra.
There was some 007 game based on Goldeneye. I had fun with that one.

Yes! I used to play Tron too!

My favorite games were the Yoshi ones, and the Mario games. I want that NES system, but places want way more than the 60 bucks.
I play match 3 games on my computer. The 7 Wonders games.

This one was quite exciting when it first came out!

I got mine from Wal-mart for 60, but it was the last one! They'd had them before and sold out, so every few days when I'd go shopping, I checked to see if they had one. Finally, voila! It does have the first three Mario games, plus the VERY first one, along with Donkey Kong, Bubble Bobble, Punch-Out, Kirby, both Zeldas, and more I'm forgetting.

What's your all-time favorite game? Tempest. My roommate had a stand-up Tempest game.

What game have you most recently played? Currently playing Pokemon Omega Ruby. Getting ready to traverse Victory Road on the way to the Elite Four.

How did you score an NES Classic? Those things are next to impossible to find. Unless you want to pay a 75 to 80 % mark up.

Anyway, my favorite games of all time are Zaxxon, Dark Forces, The Thing, Splatterhouse, GTA series, Red Dead Redemption, and LA Noire.

Little town, kid in the electronic department goes to school with my son. They ordered some and I missed it the first time, they re-ordered and he hid one for me. See, kids are helpful sometimes!

Defiantly a tie between the Zelda and Mother series

I've played all the Zelda games (except Spirit Tracks) and all the Mother games

These two series have some of the best storytelling I've seen in a game.

Majora's mask (N64) and Oracle of ages/seasons (GBC) are my favorite Zelda games

Mother 2 (aka Earthbound outside of Japan) is just nearly better than Mother 3 in my opinion

Well it's nice to see all these old threads pop up. Thanks Wayoftheredpanda! I don't really play anymore but I would say 'Paper Mario' was my all time favourite.

Tis' but the humble job of a thread necromancer.
