Before games for Android and Apple devices became popular, there were these games. I know, my age might be showing. There are other games that I have not mentioned that are just as good or even better than my list. I am not here to say these are the best games there is. Just sharing.
1. Altered Beast (Sega and Family Com) - main character morphs into creatures, side scrolling. simple and classic game
2. Contra (Family Com) - if you ever had a Family Com or NES, this is one game that you should be familiar with and the ever famous "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left Right ..."
3. Chrono Trigger (Family Com, Game Boy Advance) - one of my favorite RPGs. And even now still is.
4. Fire Emblem (Family Com, Game Boy Advance) - another good RPG. What makes it nice is you get the chance to develop relationships with the characters. Also, when they die, they die.
5. Knights of Xentar (PC) - RPG but not for kids.
6. Might and Magic (PC) - before I got hooked with Magic the Gathering, I would spend hours playing this game with friends.
7. Super Robot Wars (Family Com, Playstation) - I can never stop playing this game(s) even if many of the versions are Japanese only. Well, Super Robot Wars OG has an English translation.
8. Xenogear (Playstation) - The theme song of this game is one of my favorites.
9. Resident Evil (Playstation) - The main reason why I play CKZ is because of this game. Although I have never finished any game.
10. Bust a Move (Playstation) - Fun dancing game.
Feel free to give comments and feedback. Good games deserve to be shared and enjoyed.
The Wolf Pack are my friends, like all others whom I have the pleasure to know. You have my respect because you deserve it - the same way I expect this respect from you as well.

Ah yes.. and of course Mortal Combat "Fight!!!" ha ha
Mortal Kombat ... one "bloody" game. Fatality wins. I also remember there was a trick "Friendship" in the game.
My favorite character is Raiden.
Rampart
Lemmings
Tetris
Star Control
Red Storm Rising
Falcon 3.0
have a nice nite! ciao!
Oh yeah, Lemmings. Suicidal bunch if you ask me.
The earliest Nintendo Family Computer games came out during the 80's. That should already give you an idea for my age. Cheers.
ps altered beast had a man, a werewolf, and a dragon...lol
Dabbling all the way down
Jestered the devil with my song
And got what I wanted all along
I had a Nintendo 64 but did not have the chance to get a Goldfinger game. And yes, altered beast had a morphed animal for each stage. The dragon was my favorite.
In that case shanny, I should consider myself a very good aged red wine. Heheh.
actually, i was after glamazon's age bracket lol!:p
No this was before his time......lol
It was the sandman. Then u fought the gang but in a different level.
Yup Shanny those were the days......lol
Ah. Zelda. The very first game and the Link to the Past are my favorite versions. But then again most of the Zelda games are good - story wise and character development.
Definitely brings you back to arcade games like Donkey Kong and Pole Position (correct me if I am wrong).
For sure Donkey Kong. That was 1 of my favorites.
And with Donkey Kong came Super Mario Bros. Donkey Kong was the game that featured the plumber Mario. Well, quite many gamers should be familiar with Mario and his brother Luigi. One of the best Mario games would definitely be Super Mario Bros. 3 for the Family Computer/NES.
Go to the first page of this thread and post #6. Beat you to it
Ok Francis. I picked you on GB2. Don't let me down... lol.....
Before Quake and Counterstrike, there was Wolfenstien and Doom (the ever ominous BFG).
Well, there are always free roms where you can play classic NES and Sega games.
