Childhood games

1. Megaman 2, I liked the whole series but if forced to choose just one I think I liked 2 the best
2. Ninja Gaiden (opportunity to plug my budding youtube channel)
3. Bionic Commando, which I loved to see brought to a new generation with rearmed
4. Zelda 2 Adventures of Link
5. Street Fighter 2

1. Rachet & Clank/Sly Cooper. I loved these series as a kid still some of my favorite games, though the last R&C game wasn't very good. I'm looking forward to Sly Cooper : Thieves in time.
2. Medal of Honor. I don't remember what the games name was, but it was on the original PS. One of my moms friends showed it to me.
3. kingdom hearts 2. I loved this game, best Hack/Slash game i've ever played to date. Too bad my original copy is broken now And i haven't gotten a new one yet.
4. FF X. First FF game i played, and the best one IMO. I've never completed it, since i don't have the patience to level up all the way. But i loved running around in the world.

1. Final Fantasy 9
2. Metal Gear Solid (PSone)
3. Pokemon Red/Blue
4. Dynasty Warriors 2 (PS2)


Those are the only Games i remember clearly XD
I still play FF9 and MGS because they are just timeless masterpieces that everyone can enjoy . I would still play Pokemon if i were able to SAVE :x (and i refuse to play it on an Emulator...dont want to ruin my Nostalgia)

Red version was my first Poke'mon game ever. But I liked Yellow better.

This thread made me realize how young i am compared to everyone else

Of course Vinyl, Yellow was nothing but a straight upgrade from Red/Blue but personally i was never a great fan of the Series back then so i didnt care that much for Pikachu lol .

You get there soon enough Spur, and once you're there you want to go back XD (WTF am i even talking about ? Im just 19 for gods sake , im not even in the second half yet) . How old are you anyway ?

We're both old enough to be someones grandpa dude, no need to be in denial. :|

For some reason i believe that people will treat me differently if i tell them how old i am.

Pfft. When i was 6 i played games for 18 year olds and watched horror movies...

I've always been a little f*cked up.

Oh, and i've actually been faced with that. Between the age of 13-16 i always got reactions when i told people of my age.

Most of them were bothered with the thought of hanging out/talking with/to someone my age.

My favorite version, is Platinum. But came out in 2009, if I remember right.

My favorite (and only) pokemon game is and will always be Emerald.

The Pokemon Game i spent most of time on was Silver .
I still remember all of the glorious 8 Bit Music and some of the secrets (I still know you can catch a Lapras in one cave every Friday night 0_o) .

But after that i stopped playing it because it got repetitive. How many Pokemon are there anyway ? 600 ?

Spur if i had to guess your age it would be 17 .
You're acting pretty mature and even make helpfull Posts, nothing i would have expected form 16 yo's .

Edit: derped at his actual age

I've been told that i'm mature for my age, but i find it hard to believe.

You, sir, need to expect less, and make more pie.

Another game that had some effect on me was Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

Loved taking care of my Chaos.
