    Earth and Beyond - EA's cancellation created a deep hatred within me of them...lol.


     


    Auto Assault - I pre-ordered the CE of this game.  I was so looking forward to it.  Had a good beta.  Launches... "Hey, is anybody else here?"


     


    Damn it, a 43rd?  Heh, not 40 or less - but I saw your thing about Street Fighter.  I almost flunked out of college when I found the recroom and started playing Street Fighter 2 instead of going to classes...

    I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?

  • Loke666Loke666 Member EpicPosts: 21,441

    I don't think I can actually. Sometimes I really love a game but think a one that should be similarly good is just meh.

    I loved Daggerfall, but felt Oblivion was pretty boring.

    I loved the first Diablo, but overplayed it so I thought D2 was just so-so.

    I loved Neverwinter nights (BWs) but thought NWN 2 was so-so (like DA 1 & 2).

    I know what I like once I try it, but it is kinda hard to explain.

    I misses my old C-64 and Amiga, from the time when there actually released a few fun games at least every month, now it is fewer in a year than that.

    I have it pretty hard to define myself through games or music made by other people, even if it is stuff I like.

    Before reading, here's a short history of me and gaming:

    1. Had a NES, Genesis, SNES as a kid. Often played with siblings and/or friends.

    2. Later had my own PC. PC > Consoles for me, then and now.

    3. Have a PS, PS2 - played, but barely finished any thing. No impact to me.

    4. Got a PS3, XBOX - bought, but rarely even played any thing. I just felt like buying them even without time to play.





    Streets of Rage (First and last beat-em up)



    Tiny Toon Adventures (First platformer I beat and enjoyed. Sorry Sonic!)



    Phantasy Star II (My intro to RPGs)



    Herzog Zwei (My intro to the Strategy genre. HA! A console strategy game, who would have thought?)



    Warcraft II (My intro to the Strategy genre - using a mouse. Read the manual to bits. Actually loved the lore as a kid.)



    Civilization (Classic)



    Heroes of Might and Magic II & III (Skeptical at first, got hooked instantly)



    Settlers II (A hidden gem)



    Final Fantasy VI (Kefka and that Octopus guy.)



    Lufia I & II (Love these connected stories, no matter how cheesy. Underrated.)



    Day of the Tentacles (My intro to Adventure games)



    Toonstruck (Underrated)



    Curse of Monkey Island (Murray!)



    C&C: Red Alert (Intro to online gaming - 28.8kbps@Westwood Online)



    Age of Empires (56kbps@MSN Zone)



    Dark Reign (Underrated. Story and gameplay. Played this to bits in Active Online)



    Diablo (I remember my dad telling me not to play this. Heh.)



    Starcraft (Warcraft II - Diablo - This. Officially became a Blizzard fan - not a fanboy, but respect to them. Great games.)



    Utopia (My intro to browser turn-based strategy games.)



    Kingdom of Drakkar (My intro to MMO. This is before UO or Meridian.)

    Nice! I love reading these replies. Its like looking at a video gamer's dna.

    @VirusDancer:
    Ah the majesty of c64 and the 2600. So many fond memories. I think that time was just pure unfiltered discovery. We played platformers, puzzles, adventure, fighting and rts before they even had a clearly defined genre. Karateka, oh man! I should have listed that one heh.

    @ActionMMORPG:
    Definitely can tell that you have a clear vision of what you like. Probably why you're also a producer!

    @banecrow you are a 100% bonifide rpg junkie haha that's awesome.

    @Loke666 you don't need to worry about trying to explain why you like or don't like a game. Just write down games that you've loved and it will explain itself.

    @cybersurfr:
    I'm definitely with you there on Streets of Rage and Heroes of Might and Magic II. I still fire up HOMM2 once a month for some Necro goodness.

    keep em comin folks!

    • Quake

    • Ultima Online

    • Asheron's Call

    • Dark Age of Camelot

    • Shadowbane

    • Puzzle Pirates

    • EVE Online

    Those are the main games that basically have shaped the type of gamer I am and what I love about video games.
