and comodore 64

Speaking of Commodores first game ever played was Zork I on brother-in-law' Radio Shack TRS-80, via modem no less (latest thing!), connected to UNC Wilmington's mainframe. Used to play all night might still have the cheat map somewhere . . .

Written in MDL at MIT it was one of the first "interactive" games ever written!

"You are standing in an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door. There is a small mailbox here."

Is this where my love of AI and FantasyLand comes from?? The best interactive game today is our Real Lives!

You are in a maze of twisty passages, all alike.

[TicTac]

Spyro year of the dragon, Spyro Riptos rage, Army Men sarges Heroes, Army men RTS, ALL of the Halo games, and pretty much every real time strategy game under the sun. Oh yeah, and I can't forget about banjo kazooie and tooie! I loved theses games when I was a kid, and I still play them frequently today.

These games are not particularly feminine I guess, as barley any Women play them, but I enjoy them quite a bit.

Spin the bottle lmao

Civilization!!!!! I would sit up in my dad's office just playing it every night until forced to get off. Console wise I also went towards strategy games a lot, particularly Japanese SRPGs like Shining Force and Warsong/Langrisser which I have played through a number of times. Also honorable mention to old school point and clicks, particularly the original Sam and Max, Day of the Tentacle, and Grim Fandango (though that was a bit later).

I used to play Commodore 64 and Atari/Amiga mostly, earliest game I remember ever playing was M.U.L.E. and Stargoose on the 64, faves on the Atari were Dungeon Master, Arkanoid, Populous, Syndicate and Switchblade, Lotus Esprit Turbo/Buggy Boy and Typhoon Thompson.

From the Mega Drive era, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage and Sonic I guess.

PS1 era Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, FF7/8, Silent Hill

[Rumples]

God, this thread is just a list down memory lane.

Robot Ron, Vindicator, Barbarian: Amastrad CPC464
Shadow of the Beast 2, Gauntlet, SWIV, Monkey Island : Amiga 1500+

I didn't own a console until well after the PS1 came out, but have fond memories of playing Streets of Rage, Street Fighter, Golden Axe, Probotector with friends.

Pokemon Emerald and Super Mario World (Both on GameBoy Advance)

Pokemon Emerald is my all time favorite Pokemon game. I got it when I was 10, and I still have it with the same save file from about 11 years ago now. I caught a lot of Pokemon, though I've migrated most of them to my Ultra Moon now.

Super Mario World was one of my first GBA games. I had a lot of fun with it. Though it took me about 4 years to beat I remember even drawing my own levels on paper after playing some Super Mario World.

>go northeast

Grating Room
You are in a small room near the maze. There are twisty passages in the immediate vicinity.
Above you is a grating locked with a skull-and-crossbones lock.

I still love playing the first Diablo game but I do enjoy all the Diablo series.
