Fav game of all time

[Pablo]

all credit to gaming in the 21st Century but the game that got me hooked on Console games was Super Mario in his various incarnations on the SNES.

many happy months wasted!

whats your fav game ever?

[Tony Montana]

Have to go with Mario too,Super Mario Kart is the best game ever.Bought a gamecube last year solely to play it!

[shedite]

Super Mario Kart and ISS.

[Poor Student]

Too many to pick from. Champ Manager series (minus CM5 but plus FM 2005), Civilization, Total War series, UFO: Enemy Unknown, ISS Pro/Pro Evo series to name a few

[tiktok]

Tetris
in an arcade, back in the day :( (eyes welling up)

I thought Metal Gear Solid on the playstation was pretty good though.

[pete]

Not played that many but of ones i have:

Mario Kart best driving race on Nintendo - very good with multiplayer
Any of the Championship Managers on PC.
Civilisation good for the God Complex on PC too.
ISS on PLaystation best football game.

[tetsujin1979]

Final Fantasy VII - consumed my life for the better part of 3 months!!

[dfx-]

Super Mario Kart for me.....I refuse to play my age-old SNES now until I find it again.... :mad: :( :D


I also liked the original Game Boy...Tetris, Super Mario Land and 'Top Ranking Tennis'

*reminisces* :o

[Pablo]

when mario saved the princess it was a turning point in my life!

[Paulie]

Firstly ISS. The Pro Evolution Football series is unbeatable. Others would be Championship Manager, Golden Eye, the Splinter Cell series. I remember having a Bruce Lee game on the Atari 800XL which was great (at the time). The loading of games in those days was a right pain in the arse, 10-15 minutes in a tape player!

[pete]

I also liked the original Game Boy...Tetris,

Tetris was the only game i'd play on brothers Game Boy. I could never play on the Arcade version though.

[superfrank]

FIFA '98 cos it had every national team in it. I once won the World Cup with the Cook Islands.

[sligoman]

Super Mario Kart for me.....I refuse to play my age-old SNES now until I find it again.... :mad: :( :DOh ya, great game, I have it for the Nintendo 64 ;)

[Dyl10]

Exile 3:ruined world for P.C(Best Rpg ever) and its free to download

[Lionel Ritchie]

Sensible Soccer on the Sega Mega drive. class.

[Slash/ED]

Mario All Stars. What a bloody game! I'd say I've spent around 4 times more playing that game than any other. I still play it every now and then. Mario Kart was brilliant too. More modern games, Deus Ex is definitely the best game of this century imo, PES the most addictive multiplayer one.

Some class N64 games deserve a mention though. Goldeneye, Mario 64, Mario kart 64 and loads others.

[carrickharp]

Arcade: Bobble Booble,

Half-Life such a great piece of gaming history.

[CollegeTillIDie]

A variation on Tetris e-mailed to me at the office called Textris ... you use letters to form words along the lines of the Tetris principle. Loved that game. Downloaded it on to a floppy and played it at home on my old laptop for a while.

[Closed Account 2]

[dahamsta]

I'm not a gamer so this is probably going to be a tad odd, but Crush Roller (http://coinop.org/g.aspx/101075/Crush_Roller.html). They had one in "The Hall" in Garryvoe, and I had the top score.

Bubble Bobble is a great game - I was the best person in the entire of UCD at that game... :o They used to reset the scores every Monday, and by Tuesday, I'd have the top five scores and no-one else would break in for the rest of the week...!

Had (or have) an Amstrad 6128 - some great games on that. Grand Prix Simulator, Sabateur 2, R-Type, Sigma 7. Had an Amstrad 6128 emulator on the old computer with a load of the games, but that didn't work so well when we got a faster computer. Must have a look around for a new one.

Sensible Soccer is a quality game!

[Slash/ED]

Sensible Soccer is a quality game!

It is indeed, a quality game in it's day. Also one of the versions of sensible soccer had the proper Shels team from the 92/93 (I think, around then anyway) season.

I heard that Sensible Software were going to release a new version for mobile phones, did this actually happen?

Not that I know of, if it did I'll be first in line to get it. I don't see why they can't, I have the latest Fifa on the mobile phone and it's quite similar, you could definitely get a quality version of SS on there.

That's right - they had all the teams who'd qualified for Europe in it. I downloaded the game off the internet there ages ago - had problems with it again after getting the new computer though. Must see if I can get it working and see what gems of names are saved on it!

[petef]

Yeah Sensible World Of Soccer had all the leagues from aroudn the globe, can remember winning the European Cup with Shels.. think Romario was up front from what I can remember.

[Ruairi]
