Nostalgia gaming thread - Whats your favorites?


Black64

Recommended Posts

Just wanted to start a nostalgia gaming thread as we enter 2015. Just post your favorite game or game series that you enjoyed. Can be from anytime current or in the past.

 

My all time favorite still is the Harvest Moon series. I started playing Harvest Moon 64 in 1999 and actually completed that game. I still play the current games in the series as well. Currently playing Harvest Moon DS and Rune Factory 4.

 

Runner up games by category would be

 

Platform - Mario series (Mario 64 and Super Smash)

Action/RPG - Mount and Blade

Classic RTS - Starcraft

Tactical RTS - C&C Tiberium wars

Strategic RTS - Supreme Commander

Racing - Need For speed series (Undergound 1 and Most wanted)

Adventure - Minecraft

Nyt, only the first CoD should be nostalgic considering the rest are all within the last ten years. :lol: And some within the last five.

 

 

 

For me, Legend of Zelda, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Metroid, Mario 1 - 3, Super Mario World, Final Fantasy 1 - 6, Chrono Trigger, and Secret of Mana are some of my favorite games/series. Also include Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2, Baldur's Gate 1 & 2, RollerCoaster Tycoon, and SimCity 2000/3000 on the PC side.

Platform - Sonic since I was raised on a Genesis while my sister had the NES (but SMB3 is one of my favorite games)


Action/RPG - Kings Bounty/Phantasy Star (Genesis)

Classic RTS - Command & Conquer (Original)

Tactical RTS - StarCraft 1

Strategic RTS - Total Annihilation

Racing - Need for Speed, I've been here since the first

Adventure - Legend of Zelda (NES)

 

It helps if I just think of my first favorites because I could go on and on other wise

I loved MissionForce:CyberStorm - great turn-based strategy game with Hercs. The follow-up was okay, but just didn't have the same zing.

 

I also loved Freelancer - played on a couple of mods (Asgard!) for a long time.
