So Im sure we all played that one game that we just enjoyed so much and never really forgot.
For me, that game is most likely Tomba 2. It was the very first game I completed 100%. I loved running around the world n doing all the quests and stuff. I also loved the 3d graphics even if it was a 2d platformer.
What about you guys?

Okay, it has to be the 1st mmo I ever played. The idea I could play online with others AND be an elf just made me jitter with elation. That was FFXI. Previous, the 1st game that made me think life might not be so dull after all was Ocarina of Time.
Starflight II: Trade Routes of the Cloud Nebula. It was really the second space based sandbox game. The first being Starflight. You were dropped into a huge galaxy to explore with just a loose storyline. The game would be considered very primitive by todays standards. I've been hooked on sandbox space sims ever since.

I must have put 1000+ hours into FFX and it is the last Final Fantasy I ever bought and enjoyed. But of all time it has to be Zelda: Ocarina of TIme. I dont think I had a single inch of that game I did not like. Played for countless hours for months I only stopped playing it when my N64 broke not because I got bored of the game itself.
Kinda sad thinking about it how I clocked in more hours on some single player RPG and adventure games than I have in supposed MMO's which should be vastly bigger in scale.
My First MMO is always a fond memory, Conquer Online, lots of pvp on a daily basis, all community driven, and the community got very competitive with each other
I still remember chasing people across entire maps bunny hopping my way to kills and loot, but my strongest memory is the day a Water Tao came around and ganked me and took all my loots!!!

Gonna have to go with you on this one. One my all time favorite games and gaming memories, Atari 2600 ruled lol
No signature, I don't have a pen
The most memories any game has given me is Quake III : Arena. Played for years both casually and in tournaments. Still have screenshots from many of the matches and every so often, maybe once a year I'll go back and take a look at them and the whole match will come back to me.
Ultima Underworld.
It was the first 3D game I played.
I played it during the summer holiday between school and university.
Magical times, but it looks really primitive now.
Original civ, mega Lo mania, hl1 and daoc would be up there too
I best moment was playing Dark Age of Camelot. I was working at cyber café at the time and had a real close knit group of friends that I played with. We all started playing when the game first game out and frankly played a lot. It was my job and all. We had to been around level 30’ish and decided to go out to the frontier. Slowly making our way out of the gate keep. It was quite an accomplishment to make it to the first gate wall. Good times. Oh and the first relic raid. The pure scale I have not seen since.
I'd have to say Auto Duel for the C64 for my first memorable game. Loved that game.
For MMOs it's UO and SWG. Chopping wood to make furniture for my house in UO and shopping for new camo Gun Dusters are just a couple of awesome memories I have of the good old days.

It varies with age. Throughout my life, there have been many landmark moments in my gaming experience. To pick one would be too limiting. To list a ton would be off topic hehe
Runescape. Idk how many people make fun of me for it but I LOVED it. It had no story whatsoever. Well more like here's a bunch of background stories about the world that you dont need to concern yourself at all. I played WoW shortly after I quit runescape and while I enjoyed it as well, wasn't as well exciting. Maybe cause it was my first MMO.
Edit: Saw this was general gaming and not MMOs. General game would be magaman X4. Gamed all my life but no other game could hold my interest for that long. Oh the joy of finding pieces of megaman's new armor...
I cannot really name one game as there are too many to speak of so I'll go for my first love in gaming and it was love at first sight in 1979........

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

Are we talking MMO or Games in general?
Games... its quite hard to put a finger on one particular game. I have quite fond memories of games like Legend of Zelda, Super Mario 3, and Guardian Legend just to name a few big ones (And a less known one I loved a lot) but I also had plenty of Sega favorites such as Sonic 2, Wonderboy in Monster World, and TMNT Hyperstone. I could even go into stuff like Diablo 2 on the PC or Doom. Its really hard to pick one.
MMO wise? Its a bit tough but I'd say the game that has stood the test of time the most with me is Ragnarok Online. To this day I feel it had one of the best leveling and stat systems in a game. It was one game that made me feel so rewarded to play as I get a higher class and I get those skills. Still, I do have to give honorable mentions to games like FF11 (which also had an amazing class system) and World of Warcraft which did give me enjoyment and some memories itself (even if the latter decided to spoil that badly mid way through wotlk).
Regular game - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
MMORPG - Star Wars Galaxies
After much thought, I think I have to go with Shenmue. That game is so immersive its a mind fuck. I can smell that game lol
