What is your favorite old game?

[g1nt3r]

I can't tell you how many hours I spent into Fire Red. (Which was the remake of it for the GBA) I would spend 4+ hours into that game in a sitting sometimes. I am sad to report I never catched them all. Was not even close.

It's a sad day for America right now.

There is always time to catch em all, at least the original 150 (151 with mew glitch)

You remember the first person shooter C&C? Where you could pick different classes and had to protect your harvester and base from the other team. There was like a free demo I remember playing the crap out of that with my friend.

Man I don't know, I do remember it. That sounds right, I'm gonna look it up here when I get the chance and I'll link my findings. Hell maybe it's freeware now Lol! I don't think I even played the full version for some reason but I played the crap out of the demo. Makes me think that it wasn't released. I could be wrong.

There is still no other game like it. Not even any other Metal Gear game after it. I used to almost get mad I had to PLAY it to get to the cut scenes!

 

[x Risky Kill]

Battletoads was the most frustrating game I've ever played haha that jet car part was the worst. Luckily rare replay gave me a rewind button 

 

[Mafsin]

Contra of course. 

beach 2002, tekken now a days Plants and zombies .

Did you like snake eater? That was was pretty damn good too. I didn't mind The Phantom Pain, it was a fun play through but it was very different from the standard MGS gameplay we're used to.

I hated snake eater the most! I'm not a big fan of retro themed games. I guess that's why I liked the modern warfare series of COD better than all the others. 

I'm not that high on the Phantom pain either. I quit playing it after maybe 3 weeks. It felt like the story mode didn't go innorder, and I like structure. Lol

First off, there is no picking "one" (unless you mean one system, then I'd go with Super Nintendo). Secondly, I don't know what constitutes "old school" anymore, much less what those reading this would consider it to be, so I'll just stay away from current gen consoles/games:

Atari: Pitfall, Centipede, Frogger, Qbert, Breakout, Dig-Dug, Space Invaders

Caleco Vision: Burger Time, Galaxian, Choplifter,
