Talking about old school games in the CSS thread inspired me to this!

One of my old favourites was a game called Populous: The Beginning!

http://en.wikipedia....:_The_Beginning


Legend game still got it in the depths of my HD somewhere!

Obviously some you oldies will go back a bit further..... :P

Also Doom was well up with the bests!

Starcraft all the way!! :D

There was also another game worth mentioning but I don't remember the name...You were either steering a mech or play as human beign on foot... This was a proper game and I know that once I saw the name I would know it straight away!

From consoles: Battletoads, Contra (!), Cannon Fodder.

Populous was awesome. By Bullfrog iirc. Was great. I remember building massive mountains to make it hard for the enemy to get to my camp then just spam em with earthquake spells.

Zelda: Ocarina of time was banging so glad I have it on my 3DS again. Still got my Gameboy pocket.

7th Legion, Red Alert, Destruction Derby, Ultim@te Race. So many!
ohhai you!

It's all about getting proper versions on ps3 etc..

Streets Of Rage 2 with online co-op and vs modes, anyone?

Road Rash was the best though, shame they canned the ps3/xbox remake :(

Just remembered Micro Machines, that was amazing!

Sega Megadrive ftw!

And the old PC games like Quake, Doom 2, Duke Nukem, Age of Empires. About 8-9 years ago I used to buy a PC mag every week and it came with a disk full of game demos, must of had near 100 games on the PC at one point lol, was glued to the PC back then.
