SF2T best game ever. On any platform. From any era.
Good call sir! I remember that day I bought nintendo power magazine and it had the main menu cheat to make the screen turn blue! Memories.

Hello Craig.

Sonic was an amazing game. I protested as a kid, purely as I was Nintendo through and through.

I have a complete C-64, fully boxed with over 100 games tucked away.
One weekend, I will get all my consoles set up and have lonely night getting highscores on games that have been forgotten!

HeroQuest.

I can talk about Nintendo's all day, and will get back to them later.

There was a guy on my street called Lee. He never played football, was a few years older than me and never really played outside apart from 50/50 in a few nights a week.
When your a kid, you will speak to anyone. I noticed one day he had a SNES Controller box in his bin outside his house so knocked on his door and asked if I could play. Haha. We played Street Fighter for a bit, and he didn't want to play me anymore, so he mention about some board games. I picked one called 'HeroQuest'.

I've search on youtube for this game and watched some videos, but honestly cannot make sense on how you really play. But, back in the 90's it all made sense to me.
If you haven't ever seen this game. It's a strategy dungeon game with skeletons and cool shit. You would even paint your characters! Then try and collect treasure from a dungeon avoiding skeletons, traps and falling boulders. It use to take ages to set up, but as soon as you rolled the dice, you loved it. Any strategy game that involved warriors, skeletons, goblins or wizards I would be in.





This takes me back to my childhood, as does all the games console talk altho i was deffo a SEGA kinda guy!!! Sonic > Mario back then (Now obv the opposite!)

I was a massive SF4T on the DreamCast, and managed to pwn the world as Akuma. Smiley

Looking back, the simplicity of the games magic created an infinite lifespan.
I could play for hours.

I have purposely missed off a game from my list.. One that was released on the Playstation One and a game which I have racked up more than 300 hours playing.

The game, in my opinion is the greatest game ever created.

Here's a clue.

Thx for your post S4OOTER.
The dreamcast is the only console I have never owned! I chose the Sega Saturn during that Era.
Do you remember any other games on there which were any good or that you enjoyed playing? Crazy Taxi was on the dreamcast I think?

Confirmed by far the greatest game on any playstation console ever. Could compete with hours spent Smiley

One of the games I've played for probably 1000 hours with countless replayability is Deus Ex, super old but if you've not heard of it you need a brain scan!

Probably reinstalling it when I get home Grin

Must admit I preferred (significantly) Soul Calibre

We had about 5 games for our Dreamcast at Uni and mainly Fighting Sims.

Dead or Alive (the film is also awesomely awful!)
SF4T
Tekken

These were abused, but also racked up hrs on

Evil Dead
Alone in the Dark

I shared the house with a Gameaholic whom owned every console and we found ourselves racking up hrs on Resident Evil (all games) and obv GTA in the later years, as well as the std Boys nights of WWE and FIFA/Pro Evo tournies.  (I was a pro evo > fifa tho).
Just saw him post a video on Facebook at a recent gaming convention where he got the chance to play the Street Fighter World Champion (Ryan Hart) - He lost 2-0 but was close, so fair play to him

Weirdly the last console i owned was a Xbox 360 (original) in which i hammered NBA and UFC games for a little and then got bored.

My top 10 games ever (all consoles)

1. Sonic 2
2. Resident Evil Series
3. Pokemon
4. Sega Rally
5. SSF4
6. Mortal Kombat
7. GTA
8. Pro Evo
9. EA Hockey
10. NBA Jam

Special Mention to Goldeneye, but i was officially the WORST player ever

Awesome list buddy.
Resident Evil was such an awesome step in gaming and the atmosphere it created, unreal. ResEvil 4 was a masterpiece.
