I loved the '80s games. Games these days are too advanced and crazy.

one of my favorite games as a kid was pitfall on the atari 2600. I also remember playing ET, getting stuck in a hole I couldn't climb out of, and fawking hating every minute of it.

I had a friend with a colecovision, and the smurfs game really sticks out in my head.

we had a commodore 64, too. there was a side-scrolling transformers game that was fun, but really difficult. I remember the card slot games, too.... tooth invaders is the game that sticks out most to me.

apple IIe, with oregon trail, and rocky's boots, and many text-based adventure games (planetfall comes to mind)

I remember when we got our first nintendo. it was christmas of 1989, and it came with mario bros and duck hunt combo, with the grey gun (before the bs red/grey shit)

my first rpg I ate up was dragon warror. the original.

I had a friend who got a virtual boy. that would have been cool if games were more than one color.

when the cd-i came out, my parents got us one of those. burn:cycle was sweet as hell.

^We got the nes the Christmas it came out to replace our commodore 64. We played Mario Bros./Duck Hunt & Life Force like they were crack.

I still assert that Life Force was one of the best games EVA.

The Atari 2600 was my first gaming system. My parents still have our old one w/ about 20 games. Night Driver was my favorite, but Pitfall, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Air-Sea Battle were great, too.

I also loved Dragon Warrior on the NES. That game was great. I rented it one weekend... sat down Friday night and played through Sunday night to finish it. Pretty sure I slept about 10 hours that weekend and only put the game down long enough to eat & use the bathroom.

^SUCKED. I couldn't ever get that piece of shit to work right. I ended up cutting the cord and using it as part of a robot costume...
