Default Favourite Childhood Videogames...

I myself grew up with a Sega Megadrive in the house, so games like Sonic 3 and Ecco the Dolphin are the classics that I still play today. I also grew up playing the greatest FPS series of all time, (in my opinion anyway ) the Marathon trilogy.

What about the rest of you?

I suspect I may be a bit younger (or got into gaming later) - games I grew up with were PS1 era... Favourite though, has to be the Crash Bandicoot games!

N64 was a great game system back when I was around 8 years old. I remember playing Mario, Banjo Kazooie, and Smash Brothers on that game console. I later grew up playing games like Grand Theft Auto (every one before Vice City, if I'm not mistaken) and Ratchet and Clank on the Playstation. The last games I've played were Smash Brothers Brawl and Twilight Princess (Zelda) on the Wii.

The classic N64 games such as Super Smash Bros, and Mario Kart.
Loved those games.

Then came my first GameCube, then Xbox, then Xbox 360..
Now, my game is Halo.

I was addicted to the Z-Spectrum for a while which took so long (casette games) to load that the tape would run out and you would have to try to load it again.

The first working game I actually had a full on obsession with was Alex Kidd, which I completed TOO many times to count.

I loved Zany Golf (Amiga).

Many, many, many games on the other consoles following.

Spyro.. that brings back memories
Anyways, the game(s) I played most would probably be the pokémon series, there wasn't a single person in my whole school who didn't play it
