So I remember a lot of games. I grew up at the dawn of the house hold console and then the beginnings of the console wars. I also remember various pc games my school had loaded on to the computers.
Computer Games: Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego? Surprisingly enough not San Diego. The game was hard to navigate as a kid and just when I would finally get past the beginning it was time to switch and do something else. Nothing of course saved. Millies Mathhouse: It had a cow and math. Idk what else to say about this. Snakes and Laters: My aunt had a game package which included this. Another game and the game where the snow man eats you. Organ Trail: A journey to the manifest destiny has never been so perilous and educational. Sim City, and Sim city 2000. Before you could control humans and spores. There were cities. Zoning laws, taxes, building schools... which i never played correctly. I was all about loading as many natural disasters as possible to kill my make believer tax payers. Ninteno games: Breakout: You hit blocks. Punch Out: You hit people. Zelda: You kill chickens. Rescue seven princesses. Name your self lord of poops. Cry because your cartage erased itself. Good times. Sega: Sonic: Wow throwing up because of motion sickness was never so fulfilling. Playstation games: Hoyboy there is a long list for this one. It is actually the first system we bought with desk and the one that could play CDs XD. Legend Of the Dragoon. Grand Turismo Grand Theft Auto. The first one was actually rather fun to play and horrible at the same time. Oh the pixel cars. Jet Set Moto: Water Jet Ski Racing. N2O: I remember this game particularly because the sound track was done by crystal method. You basically went in a vortex and killed various bugs. Another brightly colored acid trip which produced motion sickness in me after hours of playing. Crash and Crash racing. Spyro: Ugh this game made me sick literally. I never finished it. ... so many games in the 90s seem to have given me motion sickness. Silent Hill: The first M rated game I ever attempted to buy, was denied and then borrowed it. Never finished it. When Arcades used to be around: Killer Instinct: Man I loved this game. It was a basic two player fighting game but I loved the designs. Primal Rage: Another two player killing game. Tekken/King of Fighters: Haha blocky peeps kicking more blocky peeps. Crusin: A racing sim game, with the actual joystick. DDR: Hell yes. Before they brought it home. Carnevil: It was a game I watched people play. Crazy Taxi: Haha. |
You gotta explain to me how Spyro gave you motion sickness o.o

Easy, following behind the brightly colored dragon in his techno colored world as the world jerked from left to right each time you flew anywhere to accomplish things. After the second or third time I had to do one of those flying ring levels. I quit playing that game.
example different game same reasons though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rFks5C4nos |
I played so many great games growing up! We always had a great desktop computer at home, so most of my games were played on PC. In year 6 my teacher gave me his son's PS1 with all the games, so I played a couple of great games on there as well.
PC: Sims, Sims 2. I used to spend hours sitting and watching my older sister create houses and play the sims. After she got sick of it/if she wasn't there I would play my own game, but I don't think I ever enjoyed it more (when I was young) than watching her. Now I hate watching other people play any game aha, I just want to have a go. *Sims 2 soundtrack is one of the best ever in my opinion, such nostalgia when I hear it - hours and hours worth of hearing the music from it* Need For Speed Underground 2: So many hours logged on this game. Also has a fantastic soundtrack!! Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2: Had so many cheats for this game, loved flying around :P Age of Empires 2: Another favourite. But then again they were all my favourites! The Hobbit: One of, if not the first proper action/adventure game I played! I think I actually finished this game, unlike a lot of the others on this list. Rollercoaster Tycoon: What a classic. Who didn't love launching people off the end of the rollercoaster into the next park? Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego - the 1995/96 version, such a fantastic game!! Used to play with my Mum, or sometimes by myself. Gizmos and Gadgets: 100% one of the best games I played! I used to play it all the time at Primary School, took it home once and it didn't work. Had to buy myself a copy. Windows 3.1/95 Games Chip's Challenge: What a fantastic game! I would always play this at my Auntie's house whenever I slept over. Such a blast from the past. I think I still have pages with all the level passwords written down :P Castle of the Winds - Very very old game, but a LOT of fun! I still play it now and enjoy it! Solitaire: Just a classic. The cards were great in the Windows 3.1 version. Pipe Dream: Another game that took up a whole lot of my time. Ski Free: I never legitimately finished this game, I always got eaten :( Rodent's Revenge: Such a simple game, still fun! PS1: Crash Bandicoot 1, 2 and 3. Nuff said. |
Oh man, Castle of the Winds. I played the MESS out of that game.

Childhood games? :3
Well, Pokemon for starters. Played those all day, all night. Then there was Hamtaro: Ham Ham Heartbreak. I love that game to bits, it's a shame not enough people seem to have watched Hamtaro at all. Those little hamsters are adorable, haha!~ Finally, Digimon Dawn and Dusk. I ended up loving Digimon more than Pokemon... |
Ooo, I watched Hamtaro as a kid, but never saw that game before. What kind of game was it?

I grew up heavily on the Final Fantasy series. I fell in love with the storyline and characters. The graphics were amazing. I recently found an old game at my local GameStop for about $8, which was a steal because they no longer make that game. It was fun relieving my childhood. Ah, the nostalgia. :f-heart: |
I grew up with Pokemon, my first one is Pokemon crystal. I didn't have it anymore, so my earliest game I have now is Pokémon ruby. The most satisfying moment was beating Pokémon emerald several years back!
