Nostalgic gaming moments!

First gaming memories, Altered Beast played by my dad, got the Sega mega drive collection for our Xbox 360 now so still play it. Also Sonic the Hedgehog, the opening tune! Mum was a fan of desert/jungle strike on the mega drive. Also remember playing Hogs of War, can't recall the platform but it was insane and funny! FF7 was amazing. But ultimately, the best, most epic was Zelda:Ocarina of Time in the N64. Spent a whole summer at the age of 15 playing it. Dh got me a 3Ds a couple of years ago for Xmas with the 3d version and still love it! Now dd likes it.

Ooh and My powerhouse of a SimCity that just could afford any fucking thing, with those Terrariums or Panopticons or whatever they were called. I have played since, but never achieved anything like it.

Chuckie Egg - when the caged bird is released and all bets are off.

Watching friends playing Magic Carpet and swooping their whole bodies around as they played flying across the landscape.

Tomb Raider - the Cistern was the level I really remember. They took so long to solve, you got to know them really well.

Coming late to the party with Mario and realising what all the fuss was about with Super Mario Sunshine. What a great game.

Oblivion. They erected a statue in my honour. I've never forgotten.

Me and Dh often like to have this discussion. I always remember the bit with the t-rex from tombraider (not sharon) and yy to the dogs from resident evil. Also the first time you see a licker in resi 2 - made me jump. And pyramid head from silent Hill 2. Me and dh played that together not long after we first started dating and so pyramid head always makes me feel slightly nostalgic

Finishing Resident Evil on the original Playstation. Plus absolutely sitting myself when the dogs jump through the window in the hallway.

When I was very young, playing the Lord of the Rings game on my dad's Spectrum

Cool Spot, I remember playing it loads as a kid. Megadrive was my first ever console.

Silent Hill 2. Unreasonably creepy and psyche-invading. LOVED IT.

Zelda Ocarina of Time. Just so engrossing and fun and pretty.

Cool Spot!b I loved that game, had forgotten all about it. Also one with a rabbit that jumped around on huge platforms.

I remember playing Dune on the pc back in the 90s, that seemed so advanced at the time.

You're wife is as attractive as a monkey in a negligee.

All the Monkey Island games, ToeJam and Earl, Sonic, Road Rash, Cool Spot.

Oh the times, playing ToeJam and Earl 2 right now, oh the beautiful fucking memories!!!!!

I remember dreaming of collecting rings for a week after getting Sonic on the Megadrive, other favs were Rayman & James Pond.

andrealezac, Ratattack was a good fun game! I only really remember the names of games ps1 onwards, but will always love my NES as my mum would sit and play games with me so it was us time. Chip and Dale was a firm favourite!

PS1 games there were just too many to count! Monster Rancher, Harvest Moon, Hercules...I am just so glad controllers are no longer the rectangle shape!

Oh and Doom on the PC in the late 90s. Used to properly scare me.

Dungeon Keeper on the Atari 520. I actually screamed when a mummy crept up behind me :) Also WoW, and when I got my first mount (and went nuts riding up and down the road for a while), followed somewhat later by the day I finally got my Drake, after months of egg-hunting :) LOTRO and farming in The Shire, just watching the sun go down and feeling like I was really there.

castle of riddles

Never got past the bloody spider.

I played Monkey Island a few months ago. There was a new version done. Exactly the same but with new graphics.

Blimey, I remember half life. Think I had a tail and spent ages in a bar drinking. Couldn't really work out what I was meant to be doing but it was the first game I played where you interacted with other players. So basic compared to WOW, etc now.

I had a c64 as a kid and loved stuff like Outrun, all the Olympic game games, California games, etc.

Chuckie Egg on the bbc model b was a great game. As was Elite. And some weird castle game with no graphics only lines of text.

Yes finally getting all the replies right in the sword fights in Monkey Island! I am rubber, you are glue!

How about the best intro music evah!

Does anyone remember Ratattack on the Playstation/N64?

Ooh, Monkey Island! 'You fight like a dairy farmer'

Did anyone ever play Sierra games?

For anyone who fancies a return to the world of Half Life (the original), the mod community re-make, Black Mesa, is terrific. The original game with modern graphics! And FREE!

At he last possible second! I'm not going to be happy having 3 different xboxs hooked up I know that. They've done a huge back peddle on a lot of things on the one and the last one with the kinnect means it'll alright to buy now. Still not happy about it though.

I did try with the play station, well we all did.. got a 3 and in the end it just sat gathering dust until I sold it. I wish I had taken to it though.
