Okay guys let's have it. Post your Favourite game(s) and ultimately Favourite game overall.

I'll get the ball rolling,

Mega Drive
It's gotta be, Sonic 2 overall but favourites include:
-Powermonger
-Sonic 3
-Sonic and Knuckles
-Jungle Strike

It's hard to remember but these are the ones I really loved.

Playstation
With no doubt my favourite is Final Fantasy VII others include:
-Resident Evil 2
-Metal Gear Solid
-Silent Hill
-Final Fantasy VIII
-Tomb Raider
-Resident Evil 3

PC
My favourite overall has to be Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast
-Jedi Acadamey
-Call of Duty (The original)
-Command and Conquer (all of them)
-Battle for Middle Earth

Playstation 2
My favourite overall that is a toughie, probably Metal Gear Solid 3
-Final Fantasy X
-Resident Evil 4
-Silent Hill 2
-Dynasty Warriors 4

X-BOX
Not so many to choose from so I'll just say Halo

XBOX 360
My favourite overall is Dead Rising but it's closely followed by:
-Call of Duty 4
-Gears of War
-Mass Effect
-CrackDown


Now bear in mind that this list is just from the consoles I have owned so doesn't include any great games on consoles I don't own. I also own a Wii but it sucks so it gets no mention beyond this mention.

So what are yours?

Sunset Riders. When i was at school it was the only arcade machine at the swimming pool when we went on Monday morning. We used to take turns while we were waiting for our coach to turn up.

That's it! Sunset Riders, we use to play it all the time at the video store. Thanks for the name Nin, brought back a lot of memories watching it on YouTube.

You guys would have loved it too but I think most of you were too young at the time it came out.

Not me! Though it was on one of the 8 bit consoles too, if I recall.

We had Peter Pack Rat and then later on TMNT and Xmen at the comic shop. A lot of 10p pieces went into those!

TMNT was another arcade I use to play a lot :D I was always Leonardo.

That's right you young 'uns, it use to cost us 10p or 20p to play those machines. I think that's the reason why Im reluctant to play on the new arcades. I just dont think paying £1 or £2 is worth it. For £2 you could have played WWE Arcade for a couple of hours and still have enough money to buy Thundercats bubblegum and pay the bus ride home.

Lyme Regis arcade (probably now long since shut down) had loads of classics too, back when i was a kid and the Radio 1 Roadshow was doing the rounds.

The 2 Exmouth Arcades aren't too bad, but the one in town is scummy and the one on the beach front doesn't really have too many decent games.
