Posted: 11/27/06 at 2:30pmI just happened to come by my old Sega Saturn over Thanksgiving weekend and just started to play all of my old Sega games that I still love. I loved playing my Sonic The Hedgehog games and Virtual Fighter games. Also loved Nights too. I still have my old Super Nitendo too. I'd plug that in, but I think I'm missing a wire.

I enjoy Madden Football. It passes time on my commute
They never came out with a Baseball one after 2004. The pitching was fine but it was impossible to hit. I guess they never figured out how to make a good one

Mario Kart for SUPER NES and N64.
Goldeneye 007 for N64.
Mortal Combat for SUPER NES.
Super Mario World for SUPER NES.

If we are talking favorite video games of all time that list would include: Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 2, Super Mario Bros 3, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Mortal Kombat 2, Resident Evil 2 and the Madden series (with a shout out to the original Tecmo Bowl).
If we are talking currently I've been playing Madden 07 on the Wii and Deadrising on the XBox 360. Playing Madden 07 on the Wii is almost like playing an entirely new game. It's really a lot of fun.

CapnHook's got it. With the exception of Goldeneye, which I'm eliminating just because I've never played it.
And I must add, Lego Star Wars. For someone who sucks at videogames as much as I do, I really enjoyed never having to see a "game over" screen.

HAHAHA I loved Grand Theft Auto because of how Absurd it was. Granted I am not saying Killing people just for fun is cool, but in this game because of how crazy it is, plus the fact that little old ladies can pull and throw you from a vehicle is funny!
But I will forever love the original NES, the games were challenging and fun. I loved Mario Bros. 2, Wheel of Fortune (which Vanna does the splits when reaching for the letters and claps when you bankrupt) and Dragon Warrior. Nintendo always had the best games, even Duck Hunt was great!

Ah yes, how could I forget Duck Tales!
That is one of the greatest games in the history of platform gaming.
I'm also a bit embarrassed that I forgot the original Mega Man series for NES.
#17re: Favorite Videogames
Posted: 11/28/06 at 10:58amThe entire Zelda series, Lego Star Wars, Wolfenstein 3-d, and some of the Final Fantasy games
need to defrag my brain.

Posted: 11/28/06 at 11:33amPretty much any of the old 80s arcade games, and the Super Mario World/Donkey Kong Country series for the SNES.

Posted: 11/28/06 at 2:02pmI play Second Life, but I made the mistake of downloading the World of Warcraft free 10 day trial. Sigh.

I have a little crush on Shbrt now for being a hot girl who likes geek games.
I'm currently STUCK in a rut playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance over and over and over on my Xbox. In between it, I am playing Justice League Heroes.

I recently picked up both of those titles, bwaysinger. Though I haven't been able to start either of them as I am bogged down in Dead Rising and enjoying Wii Madden way too much.
Are you enjoying them?
I am much more of a DC guy than I am Marvel, but Ultimate Alliance seemed like a much better game based on reviews. However, if Batman is available in a video game, I'm likely to try it.
