Half-Life 2

Max Payne 2

Diablo 2


(All 2s, it's a conspiracy!)

Here are some honourable mentions:

Metal Gear Solid 2

Resident Evil 4

Resident Evil 0

Half-Life 1

Half-Life 2: Episode 1/2

Diablo 1


Now post yours!

I stopped playing videogames sometime during the first term of the Clinton administration-I'm pretty sure Sega-Genesis still existed at the time-so this list shouldn't be surprising.

1. N.A.R.C.
2. Double Dragon
3. The Simpsons

If so i total agree that it's one of the best games.

Yes!!.... wait... I think so.. I think I'm confused because I might be thinking about Sonic Adventure 1.... which I loooovvvedd.. and I wanted 2 I think.. or was it 3? but it was too expensive... and then Sega dropped off and no more Dreamcast games... :cry:

Check it - buy the Metal Gear Solid Essential Collection, it comes with MGS 1 , 2 , and 3, and it's about $29.99. You're going to pay about $20 for the first game anyway, might as well cough up the extra 10 and get the other two.

PS2? sounds leik a good deal. are 2 and 3 the origionals or the (?Remakes?)

fernandito
06-17-2008, 09:17 AM
I wouldn't call them 'remakes', so much as improvements. :cyclops: There's some stuff added that makes playing them a whole lot easier - better controls, the ability to shift camera views etc.

I know Resident Evil 5 hasn't been released yet, but I have been so exited about it, it is in my top 3. The previews on www.gametrailer.com make it look like an amazing game.

Substance and Subsistance. But like I said, they're the exact same games, only with minor tweaks.

Beam, there wasn't a sonic adventure 3. Sonic adventure 1 had chaos zero, the blue blob man with green eyes and you played it in a city. Sonic adventure two you could play as tails and eggman in big machines.

06-17-2008, 11:27 AM
ahhhh... then, cry your pardon, i was thinking of sonic adventure one.. i REALLY wanted 2, but alas... i'm gonna have to get an a/v cord for my dreamcast and buy it on ebay i guess... i remember the blue blob guy... sooo irritating.

He was rather wasn't he? I never owned a dreamcast but i played Sonic DX which was a remake of SA1 and i had SA2 battle on Gamecube

theBeamisHome
06-17-2008, 11:55 AM
ohhhhh.... Dreamcast was sooo the shit... I mean, it was really better than the Playstation and just as good as the ps2 in my opinion... it was just really bad timing... and probably not enough awesome games... but as far as graphics?? psshhhh... and the memory card was cool too cuz in the sonic adventure game you could hatch a chao.. and u could save it to the memory card and play with in on the memory card like a gigapet... awesome... i wonder if i can get it on my computer....

The three games that I've gotten the most play time out of would be...

Age of Empires 2 with Conquerers' expansion
Everquest
Starfleet Command 2

I want to give an honorable mention to Emperor: Battle for Dune...not because its a great RTS game but because its a beautiful game (for its time that is and the graphics still hold up pretty well) and I still play it (because I'm a Dunehead) I get more out of it by modding it to an infantry only game though so I don't play Emperor as it was meant to be played.

The Lady of Shadows
06-17-2008, 02:24 PM
i only have two because i stopped playing a long time ago. don't own a system, and don't play on the computer anymore.

Some great games- we have Megaman 2 in common and Ocarina was great, I think I'm just more sentimental about the first two because of my childhood.

fernandito

Yeah, I tried to come up with a perfect blend of games that I'm sentimental about because of my childhood, and games that are just amazing because of their play through value.

Hey, no offense. I didn't mean it in a bad way. I just couldn't get into it this time around and I paid like 20 dollars for it. It was one of the SNES titles I really wanted, got it, and just didn't like it.

I'll mail it to you if your copy is busted. :couple:

se that's why you do the easy thing and get a rom. so much cheaper and easier. just make sure it's from a legal site. cuz it's now at the point where it's fine for the old systems cuz the Companies leik Nintendo aren't making any profit from the snes and other systems anymore.

razz
06-18-2008, 05:40 AM
Roms (read only memory) are programs played on emulators, used to play old (or new) games on your computer. to play one you need a to download an emulator, and the rom for th game. i can help you. a good site is doperoms. problem with that site though is that it's doing its fundraiser, so you can download stuff two at a time. or i start you off. give me the game system ,and some games, i'll give you the download links.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (only got it 2 days ago but maaaaaan am I hooked lol)

It's really hard picking only 2, but I has to have a Mega Drive/Genesis game in there :D

Sylar
07-12-2008, 01:01 PM
Incredibly tough choice for me. If i was forced to say then it would be....

Silent Hill 2
World of Warcraft
Command and Conquer - Generals

All excellent games in their own fields.

Oh i bet Silent Hill is inspired by the Mist, but it is also very likley inspired by Phantoms by Dean Koontz. Both have the empty misty towns full of ambigous characters, gotta love it.

OH CRAP ! I must add Final Fantasy 7! Amazing game!

RUBE
07-12-2008, 03:54 PM
1. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
2. Final Fantasy (that's right, the original NES game)
3. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (don't have a PS3, so I haven't played IV yet)

Honorable mention:
Madden Football for the Sega Genesis (don't remember the year) - Which ever version it was had Barry Sanders at an almost God-like level of agility. No one could tackle me with him. I would run it on third and 20 at my own ten after trying to pass twice and still score a touchdown. It would make people sooo mad.

fernandito
07-12-2008, 06:07 PM
I love San Andreas , there's just so much to do in that game. I think I've plugged about 80 hours into that thing.

My favorite games aren't really all that involved but here goes:

Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando
Bubble Bobble (for old-school Nintendo)
The Mark of Kri


I was just going to list three Ratchet games but that didn't seem fair.

You like Commando huh? Up Your Arsenal is my favorite of the original 3 :)

Tiffany
07-12-2008, 06:31 PM
I liked being able to buy things for the ship and all the flying missions.

I like the Sly Cooper games, too, but not as much as Ratchet. Jak and Daxter are fine for a couple hours of distraction.
