I am still biased heavily towards the classic era of arcade gaming. I still feel as far as gameplay goes those simple, games have more entertainment value than most of the graphic intensive games that have come out the last 10 years or so. I have a list of 50 or so "classics" I still routinely play.

Very nice Rob. While those wouldnt make my top 10 all time list I know exactly what u mean and when it comes to retro and or arcade games or even Atari games, those are right at the top with exception of DD which was newer and on the NES/SEGA I believe. Got Em!!

If it's Double Dragon you fancy, you gotta play Double Dragon Advance on the GBA. Like the arcade one, only: twice the stages, bunch of extra special moves, and some cheesy cinematics.

I do have a list made on IGN that I'll link to later. Though so far I only have my physical games listed which numbers around 180-190. I probably own another 200-250 games downloaded. Most of the games I mentioned I don't own the physical game atthe moment. I do have many of them downloaded on either the PS3 network or Wii Virtual Console.

I owned most major consoles at one point or another as a kid but eventually sold them all off and I was not really into gaming for most of the PS2/GameCube generation of gaming. I'm sorta playing "catch up" at the moment.

Consoles I own at the moment are: PS3, PS2, Wii, DS and Dreamcast. I do plan on buying a Neo Geo AES at some point in the future since it was always a dream of mine as a kid but couldn't afford it. Will probably pickup a PSP too when I see a price drop.

Yea man u definitely need to get your Wii back. SMG is an amazing game and part 2 is around the corner! Got Em!!
That's cool that you like them games too. You really need to play Zombies ate my neighbors, if you haven't already. That game is very addicting. I'm not sure if they have it on VC, they might. Yeah I really need a Wii again. Once I get paid, I will buy it again. Sony and Nintendo are my favorite companies ever!

Yeah their was always something about Manhunt that I loved about. Piggsy is probably one of my favorite bosses of all time. The second one wasn't as good as the first, but it was still okay. I just hope they make a manhunt 3!

1. Super Metroid (SNES)
2. Diablo 2 (PC)
3. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)
4. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)
5. Super Mario World (SNES)
6. Final Fantasy 3 (SNES) FF6 in Japan
7. Chrono Trigger (PS1)
8. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PS1)
9. Half Life (PC)
10. The Legend of Zelda (NES)

Zelda games are just epic. Since I have 2 PC games on my list, if talking consoles only, then you could move things up after taking those out and add these two next, Kid Icarus (NES) and Rygar (NES).

Other games I thought about:
Mega Man 2 (NES)
Mega Man X (SNES)
Final Fantasy 2 (SNES) FF4 in Japan
Final Fantasy 7 (PS1)
Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
Mario Kart 64 (N64)
Goldeneye (N64)
God of War Series (PS3 is what I played them on) This is just one huge storyline that continues from the beginning of one and goes straight through three and concludes.

I dont think they added that game to the virtual console yet. If they do I will most definitely download it. Got Em!!

Now this is probably the closet thing to my list and taste! U know your video games. If I was into RPG's we would probably like all the exact same games. Haha! Very nice man. Im happy to see someone else include Rygar (NES) excellent classic! Got Em!!

Looks like the agreeing didn't last too long

I mentioned Mario specifically since it is usually hailed as Nintendo's best (and one of the best period) but I disagree with that

....though the console Mario games have always been very good - great (except Super Mario Bros. 2....
[Show spoiler]it was all a dream?! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!?!

Naw we still agree on this, but we just have them in reverse so thats fine. I just didnt like the shot u gave my boy Mario! Also Mario 2 was great man. It was different and very challenging. Yes it was a dream at the end but it was still a great adventure game like the rest. they just through a twist ending at us. Man I cant wait to get some time to start them all over again which I am planning. What is your top 10 gaming franchises of all time? Got Em!!

I always found it awesome that Super Smash Bros. let me use Link to kick Mario's ***


Mario 2 was decent I thought, but no where near as good as the others. Hell it wasn't as good as Mario Is Missing

I don't know about Top 10 but my Top 5 is:


Legend of Zelda (by far)

Uncharted 1 and 2

Mario (Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, Paper Mario are probably my favorites)

Super Smash Bros.

Mario Kart (I don't put these with the other Mario games)

Love the old school racing games! Did you ever get a chance to play Stunts on the PC? It came out in the early 90s and was very similar to the arcade title Hard Drivin'. You could make up your own tracks and even theme them as well. I often put cows in the middle of the track.

Here is a link if you've never played it - All about Stunts!

Mario 2 was supposed to be a dream; They tell you right at the outset that lil guys from Sub-con (ie Dream World) sent Mario a plea to come to their dream dimension and oust Wart. When it's done and they send him back, they do so by having him wake up at home.

Kind of like on South Park when
[Show spoiler]they went to Imagination Land and came back.
