no doubt. agree 100%. in fact, i consider 007 Goldeneye for N64 to be the greatest video game ever made.

Toejam & Earl was a great game! They should remake it. Mario is my all time favorite though, my favorite mario was the one where he first had the cape, the run where you run up the tunnel and have to fly through a whole map of coins! Good times, good times....

Those aren't retro games :WTF:

06-23-2006, 12:19 PM
Yeah, those games aren't Retro in the least. Now, Joust, Defender, Yar's Revenge, Rygar, those are Retro. And maybe not as old, but Battle Toads was awesome.

Doom 2. My friend got a Doom package for Xbox and it is by far the best video game I have ever played. The co-op was awesome.
Zelda: the Ocarina of Time was pretty nasty too.
Superman

id definately have to agree that doom is one of the best for computer... for nes probably dr mario, sega- sonic and knuckles, super nes- the first super mario for that system and goldeneye, PS- probably crash team racing... that game was really fun, n64- probably donkey kong, and arcade games hands down galaga is the best game. i can play that for hours on end.

06-23-2006, 05:27 PM
Its all about the PONG and also some galaga and duck hunt. IT was super cool when after u shoot the duck the dog would got after it and I had that cool orange gun for the game

Goldeneye (for N64) and this old hockey game for the Sega Genesis that my uncle had. The puck was huge and the graphics weren't great, but I don't think I've played a game that was more fun.

That game is so hard and long. I beat it once and haven't really tried to beat it again. N64 is one of the best game systems ever though. I sell off games once I'm bored but I've never sold my N64 or any of the games.

I cant think of the name right now. It's bothering the S**t out of me. I think it was for sega, you were this green thing with a gun for a hand. You ran through these levels with like floating platforms, and the background made it seem like you were way up in the sky, with black and grey clouds. When ever you shoot, this silver spikey ball comes out. I cant beilive i cant remember this, i played it all the time when i was 5.
ALSO: if you have ever seen that gametap commercial, it is one of the ones that they show alot. im gonna go see if i can find the name lol

Resident Evil 3: Nemesis for Playstation.
I used to play that game for hours and hours.
Out of all the major RE games (RE 0, RE, RE2, RE3, RE:CV, and RE4) I liked RE3 the least.
Did anyone ever play Mischief Makers for the N64? Possibly the most underrated N64 game ever and in my opinion deserves a place in Top 10 N64 games list.
