Don't get me started. Just don't get me started I won't even list what I have played before, it is just too many. Now, I play all the sports games for ps1 with my friends. Playing video games by yourself is boring but when it with friends, woah look out

All time favorite game: Street Fighter ...I've been using Chun Li forever even though I pretty much mastered everyone else's moves.

I also like other fighting games like Tekken and Bloody Roar...I also like Final Fantasy series games and Perfect Dark, and all the Mario games...I'm not much of a sports games fan though (what's the difference between Madden NFL 2000, 2001, etc etc? lol)

I don't have a PS2 but I played Onimusha Warriors and i thought it was good.

For Nintendo, I remember playing Dragonball and Double Dragon when I was really young. And Ninja Turtles. LoL I loved those as well.

I got the Atari 2600 when I was 1. My parents played it more than I did at that time. I only had a few games for it, but the original Pac Man was by far the most awesome game ever.

For the NES, SMB and SMB 3 were my favorite games. SMB 2 was crap - in Japan, it wasn't even a Mario game. The US version had the Mario characters inserted. It sucked.

For the SNES, Super Mario World and Mario Kart are 2 of the classic games.

I was always really into video games - there weren't kids to play with in my neighborhood, so I learned how to entertain myself with them. I still pull out the NES and SNES and play. To make things worse, I've worked in a video game store for 3 summers

Hm...maybe I'll hook up the n64 and go play some...

Yeahhhh,

I was a pinball kinda boy, along with river raid, asteroids, megamania, yeah....

I had my old atari till I was 21, then my manic-depressive mother went on a 3-day cleaning spree and threw everything I owned that wasnt with me at school away. God I am still pissed. She chunked my atari and 90 games in the trash. UGH. Thats ok, I'll get her back. She'll be old one day. Ima have to loose the legs to her walker or something really vindictive like that.

Cool

When I was little we had an Attari. My favorite games to TRY to play were...
-Bowling
-Donkey Kong
-Pac Man
and
-Pitfall

Pitfall scared the crap outta me as a little, little girl because of the gators and the snakes. EEEEKS.

For basic Nintendo
-Super Mario Brothers 2
-Paperboy
-Othello
-Galaga

Sega
-Ms. Pacman
-Sonic
