I'm a big Legend of Zelda fan and the Ocarena (sp?) of Time, I might buy a gamecube for the soul purpose of playing the new Zelda game.

Melkor · « **Reply #51 on:** 13 Aug 2005, 15:45 »

Elite, Monkey Island, and Morrowind are my three favourites.
I just hope that Elite 4 is going to up to the the standard set by games such as X2: The Threat...

I like FFVII, Mario64, and Super Mario Bros. 3. I'm an oldschool gamer, I guess.

You call that oldschool? "Oldschool" would be like Pacman or Donkey Kong. SMB3 is in the grey, but the other two have 3D graphics, for Pete's sake.

If you want a good oldschool game, try Wizard of Wor. atari4lyfe!

Or Boulderdash! Digger! Or any variation on the classic Space Invaders template.

Shenmue I & II and not the bastard version on the XBOX. Game historians will look back at those two games and will relise how great they were.
Seriously Shenmue - I play it once every year.

The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time.

I can't get enough, and now I'm gonna go cry because I think I lost my gold cartridge. Or somebody stole it. Shit.

That reminds me, I'm just getting over my Tenchu addiction (I finally beat it.) I recommend Wrath of Heaven for PS2 (I think that's the third in the series.) Fatal Shadows has good gameplay, but the cutscenes are some annoying funky crap, and apparently the XBox version was underwhelming.

NotAnotherTeenUser · « **Reply #58 on:** 22 Aug 2005, 13:26 »

let's think : 3 favourite games

Medieval : Total War <--- totally awesome, Poles beating up HRE, just as in 1410

[or Spain having lands in Livonia

]

Fallout I & II <--- "In this world one have loaded guns, other digs. You dig"

Vice City <--- "Never play with open fire near Phil's Cassidy boomshine still" whoa, rocks

and maybe AOE II

as fourth

Mutant league Hockey.

Or guardian heroes.

Ha! Mutant League Hockey - sheeeeit!

I played Mutant League Football heaps back in the day.

[Note: "sheeeeit" refers to my level of excitement when remembering these games, not that I think they were shit]

Starcraft and Mega Man 2.

Am I the only one who thinks that Blizzard needs to stop making Warcraft games and get working on a new Starcraft already? (And no, Ghost doesn't count)

Seven different kinds of awesome, you are. The Tenchu games are one of my favourite series.

Does anyone else remember Basketbrawl? For the NES I think.

I hate people asking me that question, but it's gotta be a close call between Quake 3, Half Life, Starcraft, Command And Conquer (all of em except Renegade), and Dark Forces / Jedi Knight (all of em)

Currently in the process of playing Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy for the 4th time (using al the diff light saber styles)

I don't know how to quote so I'll just say this Shenmue 3 is in a permanent state of delay from Sega if you want Shenmue 3 keep Sega successful.
Then maybe ONE DAY![/quote]

My favourite games have to be Star Wars Supremacy, Generals, Eve and HL2.

Steam only sucks if your connection drops, or you don't have the intelligence of monkey.

beckrokk · « **Reply #67 on:** 07 Sep 2005, 02:52 »

This gen:
Beyond Good and Evil (insert Rodney Dangerfield impression here)
Ratchet and Clank Series

Last Gen:
Metal Gear Solid (I literally played that game no less than fifty times to completion. Still pick it up once in a while since I don't have a Gamecube for Twin Snakes).
Rollcage Series

NES:
Bugs Bunny's 50th Birthday Bash

CarbonatedWeasel · « **Reply #68 on:** 07 Sep 2005, 17:59 »

I cant really decide between The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time or Homeworld. I love them so much, they are like my childrens, but not really. Only kinda.

Mega Man 2.

X2? Because that is my favorite X no challenge. Actually, both of the other ones on SNES do pose a challenge, but this still takes the cake.

Faves:

--Heart Of Darkness

-----A little known and not nearly respected enough game for how utterly brilliant its graphics were for when it was released. Also, pretty clever story, great gameplay, tricky puzzles, all around an amazing game. Unfortunately, pretty short. A good gamer will probably be able to tackle it in one day.

--Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

-----Fuck it being "too cute" or "for kids". Fuck that. This game is totally amazing.

--Chrono Trigger

-----Pretty much the greatest RPG ever.

--FFVII/FFVIII

-----The contenders.

--Worms Armageddon

-----Haven't played in a while, but maybe I should start again. I was the ELITE master of this game. Plus, the cool thing was that when you were really fucking good, not only did you get to beat everyone BUT you also got to find all the really hard secrets and help everyone too. Sooooo good. I'm pretty sure this was the best party video game there was until Halo.

*SUPER IMPORTANT ADDITION*

Quote from: beckrokk

Beyond Good and Evil

I've never really understood how this game did so bad in sales. It is fucking genius.

Well, damn the non-beleivers who didn't buy it because it didnt get much hype. What do those fuckers know anyways, yeah?

I think he may have meant the NES Mega Man 2, actually. That one is frequently a favorite of Mega Man fans, because it introduced the 8 robot bosses concept that became the standard for the rest of the series(the first MM only had 6 bosses).

Gryff · « **Reply #71 on:** 08 Sep 2005, 15:06 »

I can just imagine it now...

"I've had this great idea, guys! How about instead of 6 bosses, we put in... 8?"

"Genius!"

"Amazing!"

"Son, you'll be promoted for this. It's forward thinkers like you who will take this company far!"

Hm, no one listed Gothic 1 and 2, but they are one of the best RPGs ever, i think...
it might be, that they never made there way over the big sea, because they are from germany, but in europe it surely was very successful... Does anyone of you know that game?

Seriously, Grim Fandango has to be one of the best games I have ever played, there will never be anything like it ever again.

Legend of Mana is a close second in my book. :)

Dammit. I thought I was gonna be original. I saw this thread and went, "Hmm... Grim Fandango. I've played it through so many times it's not funny."

I'm not gonna change my answer, though. I guess I'm just jumping on the bandwagon, there.

It's in production and pretty much ready for release; although which console isn't decided. Also, it's going to have all three of the Shenmue's in one game, apparently! how fucking awesome is that?

Akbar · « **Reply #79 on:** 13 Sep 2005, 15:13 »

I would have to say Fallout 2 and Planescape: Torment.

They are both brilliant rpgs and I wouldn't want to choose between them.

Sadly, though, I used to love rpgs but I hadn't played one in ages until I recently picked up a copy of Vampire: Bloodlines. I still havn't really gotten into it though. Rather awkward in many ways, but brilliant dialogue and voice actors.

Still, if there's ONE game you should play before you die it's definately Planescape. It's glorious, I tell you.

joshuasaurus · « **Reply #80 on:** 13 Sep 2005, 23:14 »

i think mario world for SNES is the height of fun, so much so that is all i play on my psp other than lumines, infact.

oh, and i totally grommed out on the first socom game for ps2 when it first came out a couple years back, so much so that im considering buying a ps2 again just for socom3.

Quote from: McTaggart

Elder Scrolls III - Morrowind. Hands down. The one game that I've been able to completely immerse myself in for days on end. A beautifully crafted and intricately detailed world combined with a good story and enough other stuff to do that you never have to touch the story. Best. Game. Ever. (in my opinion).

I'm hoping like hell Morrowind will gracefully hand it's crown over Oblivion when it comes out.

IMO I think there should be a giant battle between them where they have to share the crown

BUt i digress, Morrwowind was my favorite. Ever. Period.

fifthfiend · « **Reply #90 on:** 23 Sep 2005, 12:36 »

Chrono Trigger.

Fuck, I still get emotional about that game.

... yes, I did in fact sincerely write the preceding sentence.

Merkava · « **Reply #91 on:** 23 Sep 2005, 18:40 »

What's wrong about getting emotional over Chrono Trigger, or any game for that matter? Unless you said that about Mario, no one should attack that.

I also feel that Chrono Cross is severely underrated. That game is one of the best sequals ever. Way to go for taking the happy-go-lucky first game and giving it concequences in the real world.
