I m old.
You really aren't.
The first one on my list was a game in the arcade, then a game on the Atari 2600 :)
Damn, Atari 2600 looks so old. The oldest I have is nes kungfu. The sound effects are classic.
california games.
Flowers of crystal.
Tetris.
Daedelian opus.
Tetris.
ET because fuck me and fuck that game
Age of Empires II and Rollercoaster Tycoon, that's about it.
I was born in 1995, but didn't have a capable PC until my late teens so I was stuck with whatever ran on my win98 potato without internet connection. Great games though, still play them today
super smash bros melee
tomodachi life
sonic adventure 2
will add last 2 if i can think of any
- Super Mario Bros
- Zelda
- Zanac
- Golden Axe
- Street Fighter II
Super Mario Bros 3 (on GBA)
Runescape
Pokemon Diamond
Skyrim
COD4
- Columns (played with my mom, she fucking loved that game so much she’d leave the console running between playtime to save her progress)
- Sonic spinball
- Golden axe/street fighter (both)
- Comix zone (this one even influenced my music tastes because it came with a CD - the first cd I ever owned. Still have it.)
- Dominion (now abandonware, similar to StarCraft but with laser fences and shit)
All of these were SNES/genesis other than dominion which was pc.
Whatever hockey game I had on genesis gets an honorable mention. It’s the only purely sports game I’ve ever played and liked.
- 🔸Super Metroid
- 🔸Goof Troop
- 🔸Metal Gear Solid
- 🔸The Legend of Dragoon
- 🔸Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee
Well, I'm not as old as some people, but here goes.
• Sonic Mega Collection
• Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 ( w/ all expansions )
• Borderlands 1
• Worms Armageddon ( the xbox360 version )
• Destroy All Humans 2
- Morrowind
- Harvest Moon 64
- Pokemon Silver
- Myst
- Super Smash Bros 64/Melee/Brawl (I played what was latest)
Elite, Hanse, Pirates, Castles of Dr. Creep, Lode Runner.
Bonus points if you know any of them...
Elite was the first "proper" video game I played on a computer. Before that it was all games in the arcade, and on the Atari 2600.
Also (from a certain point of view) the first RPG I played (excluding D&D obviously -- I'm not an animal!).
Cytus
Pokémon Platinum
Diablo 1
Mabinogi
Yume Nikki
Cytus is pretty much the core of my whole personality (and music taste) so it is The Most Defining game for me. Platinum is special since it was my first game instead of a family game or whatever. Diablo scared the crap out of baby me but I really liked playing it! It was something my entire family played, everyone had a character save. I always was interested in MMOs but Mabinogi is The One that works for me. I reminded me a lot of Runescape when I played it but didn't have an egregious pay wall behind half the content (when I got to playing mabi, ik they had some pay walled stuff that they've gotten rid of over the years). I play any tab target MMO and I'll just have 'damn I'd rather be playing mabinogi rn' in the back of my head most of the time. And Yume Nikki was my first real foray into horror. I'm a wimp and hate playing horror games but I loved how vague everything was that I learned everything I could about the game. Enough to guide a friend through it over a phonecall.
I can only think of 4 big ones.
HellMOO, based on LambdaMOO, a text based game/roleplay/sandbox engine.
Blockland, a Lego kind of game about building with much more on top (like how Minecraft is a building game with more to it)
Zelda Majora's Mask / Twilight Princess.
GTA San Andreas (Multi Theft Auto / SA multiplayer mods)
Maybe something like Creatures. I still think of those games.
Pokémon Red, Pokémon Gold/Silver, Super Mario World, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Call of Duty 4.
I played a lot of games and can list many more, however those are the ones off the top of my head.
F19 Commander Keen Wolfenstein Gaïa
As a young adult Morrowind Command and conquer -red alert Fallout3
in roughly chronological order:
- Mario Kart Wii
- Pokemon platinum
- Skate 3
- Portal/2
- Titanfall (and Titanfall 2)
to this day, Titanfall 2 is by far my favorite FPS game. nothing comes even remotely close
Sly cooper
Cod 4
Burnout 3
||| Child Youth gap |||
New Vegas
Borderlands 2
Going to date myself very specifically. 🙃
And here I am trying to figure out what Child Youth Gap is lol I played through burnout 3 a year ago, it is soooo good still ❤️
The gap between child and teen. Distinct time frames.
It so holds up. Blame that game for the pop punk flavor I love in music lol
Half Life
Team Fortress Classic
Mecharrior 4: Vengeance
Ocarina of Time
Diddy Kong Racing
Those are the ones where I'd be a different person now without.
- Unreal Tournament
Don't remember which game specifically, but the moment when you're escaping out if the bowels of a living planet is unforgettable. Also the game is overall kinda creepy, I had hard time playing it lol.
- Borderlands 1/2
More towards my mid-teens, found about borderlands. Played it through and through, found great people in borderlands forums, it introduced me to so many good songs that are at the top of my playlists to this day. Two very great games.
- TF2
Speaks for itself. There will never be a game remotely close to how good TF2 was. Even TF2 itself.
Also some honorable mentions:
- A strategy game where you play as a mech that goes nuclear when destroyed, name is long forgotten sadly
- I'm Going In 2
- Hitman Silent Assassin
- Counter Strike 1.6/Source
And only recently I discovered World of Warcraft, specifically Wrath of the Lich King. Don't really have anyone to play with, but sometimes it's fun tanking for the entire group of randoms. I really enjoy tanking, when I know where to lead the group to lol.

Total Annihilation.
Supreme Commander as mentioned by others was the spiritual successor but I recall it didn't fill the shoes of TA.
I haven't played this yet, but I've heard Beyond All Reason is a very good Total Annihilation-like: https://www.beyondallreason.info/
Omg yes, it's actually both, I played both of them. Thank you!

The DS wasn't the first gaming machine I ever had, but it was the one I had from ages 13-18 and the one where I cut my teeth.
That's usually the case for me too, but these games in the screenshot are older than the ones I tend to see in other posts like this so this one doesn't make me feel as old.
I could just make the list all Pokemon games, but that seems like cheating...
- Pokemon
- Golden Sun
- Warlocked
- Mega Man: Battle Network
- Dragon Warrior 3 (on GBC)
- Zelda: A Link to the Past
- Chrono Trigger
- Ultima VIII (mostly as a gateway to the others in the series, but still got a soft spot for it)
- Final Fantasy VII
- Xenogears
It's so hard picking 5 but:
Super mario bros Half life Metal gear solid Driver Grand theft auto 3
-

- COD MW2+BO1 (Those were a dark few years, I played it almost the entire time without xbox live since I couldn't afford it. Lots of splitscreen zombies with friends on the couch though. Yes I am cheating by rolling them into the same slot)
- Payday 2
- Borderlands
- Terraria (Super happy that i'm actually still playing a decade later, never really stopped.)
- Super Smash Bros Brawl
Listed in reverse order of importance to me. Usually one of these was in my life at any given time, obsessions taking turns.
