Street Fighter II : Champion Edition (Mega Drive)
Final Fantasy 7 (PS1)
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Mega Drive)
Banjo Kazooie (N64)

Honourable mention for Treasure Island Dizzy (Atari ST Version). It started my addiction, Ive lost count how much ive played the game but it can never be a favourite of mine because it cause me so much pain & tears over the years. Such a stupidly difficult game :mad:

Fantastic Dizzy wasnt that bad (still a balls to figure out though). Treasure Island was a nightmare.1 life, 1 hit kills, no saves and you could only carry 3 items at once.:mad:

I remember I have Treasure Island Dizzy for the C64.

After collecting all the coins all I ha d to do was make a jump onto a boat at the end to finish the game.

Yep. Also if you go to www.yolkfolk.com theres a load of fan games. The Oliver Twins allow people to make their own Dizzy games as long as theyre freeware

Had a quick blast there.
Not even gonna try and work out the puzzles again - done that already. It's gamefaqs guide open alongside it, and save states.

Looks Like I'm going to beat you after all these years, Treasure Island Dizzy!

I only beat it for the 1st time last year (after 14 years of trying

). Took a video walkthrough & save states in the end

Not really in order:

-FIFA Football 2003 (PS2)
-Driver 2 (PSOne)
-FIFA 09 (PS3)
-Driv3r (PS2)
-Resistance: Fall of Man (PS3)

at least play the first driver game, its far superior to 2 and 3. driv3r has some moments but overall, its a horrendously designed game with brutal AI. I seem to remember beating the final boss by shooting him in the head with ease from distance with no resistance whatsoever.

in fairness, i hear resistance is a decent game(the second game is meant to be excellent too), fifa 09 is very good alright and i can't recall fifa 03.

Corcaigh84 · 20-04-2009 5:19pm

1. UT'99/UT3
2. Baldur's Gate 2
3. Quake 3 Arena
4. Left 4 Dead
5. Super Mario Bros. 3

1. Resident Evil 1/Resident Evil 4:
Hard to choose the best of the series, it's always been the original as with the sequels I knew what to expect, when I first played Resident Evil their was absolutely nothing in the world like it...Resi 4 though turned out to be far better than I expected it to be!

2. Final Fantasy 7 : I still remember to this day my fist reaction to this game was to hate it...that bloody music...but then you get into the amazing story...which is by a mile the best story to a game ever and a better story than all of the many SF/Fantasy book I've read!

3. Metal Gear Solid: Superb characters and story, the most enjoyable boss fights ever and so many great twists...MGS4 was fun but rubbish compared to this monumental moment in gaming history!

4. Resi 2/3/CV/5: Actually theirs still nothing in the world like the Resident Evil series, I've got to go out and buy Resi 2 again...

5. Zelda A link to the past - Definitely the most challenging game of the series and more addictive than cocaine!

Worth a mention:
Pro Evolution series: Real football, enough said
Tombraider 1: Breathtaking and amazing and by far the best of the series
Zelda: Orcana of time - To have not played this game is to have not experienced what is great about games!
Mario Bro's (all) - The main reason computer games became so popular!

Sir! Super Mario World isn't prefixed IV, it's not part of the Mario Bros. series. And they where prefixed 1-3, not in roman numerals.

That's more important than anything you'll read all month.

fluffy.death · 03-05-2009 11:57pm

In no particular order (with a somewhat fcuk you to nostalgia):

Mirror's Edge
CoD4
Quake 3
Dungeon Keeper 2

Actually just for being so anal it was prefixed Iv, In Japan at least.
I also vaguely remeber the title screen on ym SNES saying Super Mario Bros IV: Super Mario World.

In other news I finally completed Treasure Island Dizzy - only took me 20 years!!
