    STUNTS... The best game where you can make your own tracks, and ride them 1st person. I have yet to see many other games that can do that.

    One of my other personal favorites was California Dreams BlockOut. (Kind of a 3D tetris where you fill the bottom, if you've never played it).

    If life is a mystery, then why all the tragedy???

    Excitebike on the NES

    Cool

    Nothing like a cruise down memory lane. Some of my favorite were the ones you had to type from the code in the Atari Magizine. From the over the counter games;
    • Auto duel - Orion Software
      Temple of Apshi - - The triololgy
      Air controler
      Sub Commander
      Load Runner
      Jet - SubLogic
      Necromancer
      Zorro
      The Space Beagles
      Raid over Moscow
    Most of these I still have and still have an Atari 1030 in working condition. That was back when Programers were programers. Do you ever wonder how they could put together such fun games that were less than 1 Meg????
    If life is a bitch, then what is death? I believe that I will take the bitch...

    Thumbs up

    The Commodore 64c had the BEST games ever made available to it, including Usagi Yojimbo, The Last Ninja, Fist, Legacy of the Ancients, Bard's Tale III, Wasteland, Mars Saga, Zorro, Lazy Jones and TONS more. The C64 had great sound and pretty darn good graphics too. Man I miss those days...

    Spy Hunter, Galaga

    Going way back <for me>

    Remember COMBAT for the Atari?

    Spent hours on the tanks with invisible walls and dogfighting.

    I liked Summer Games on the Commodore 64. Also, Indiana Jones. Those were the times. 5 1/2 inch floppys to load the games.
    Thats easy, PEZ.....Cherry flavored PEZ!

    The old AD&D gold boxed series that ran on a Tandy.
    Pools of Radiance comes to mind, along with Curse of Azure Bonds

    Lately I've been getting back in touch with the old school nintendo games through emulators, the original final fantasy is the game that gets my vote.

    Scorched Earth rules (I still play it) but how about Jazz Jackrabbit, It was the first game I played, that and Ski Free.

    Watch out for the bigfoot.
