Tecmo Super Bowl
NHL '94

You ever play Tecmo Super Bowl 3 final edition. Greatest football game of all time IMO.

Can't say that i have. But i loved the first Super Bowl (heck, i loved the ORIGINAL Tecmo bowl, even with only 4 plays). Even 20+ years later, the multiplayer, game pacing, stats, etc are still better than any Madden.

Wow! I totally forgot about Tecmo Bowl, that is a classic and unbelievable game. Tecmo Superbowl was really good too and made all the necessary improvements for its time.

I don't know if anyone else has brought this one up (too lazy to look)

Nintendo's Super Dodgeball!

Tecmo Super Bowl Final Edition invented the dynasty and player creation. Their system was amazing. Most players would stop progressing, but if you got an all 99. Let's just say he was unstoppable. Plus they had the legends(hall of famers go into the free agency at a certain year.) They were amazing.

I've got a friend that can dive sack you every time it's hilarious. He crushed me in Tecmo Bowl.

Then we hooked up Madden and I got revenge. LOL.

Sweet. If your friend is ever in Louisiana tell him to bring it over. I'd love to have a challenge!

How about Sega Genesis games?

I used to really like James "Buster" Douglas boxing and Joe Montana football.

Joe Montana football had this weird "glitch" in it where the camera started out as an aerial view, but then would zoom in as soon as you crossed the line of scrimmage. If you happened to be trying to tackle someone right as this camera change was happening, you would have a tiny "aerial view" guy trying to tackle the full size "zoomed in" guy and you'd get run over. I called it mini-man. Used to piss me off to no end.

Oh, I forgot about this one ...

NES - Rush 'n Attack ... kind of obvious where they were going with that name eh?

Sega Genesis
Phantasy Star 4. Probably my first exposure to an rpg and I spent months trying to beat it.
Streets of Rage 1, 2 and 3

Sega Saturn
Street Fighter Zero(Alpha) 1 and 2. With the 8 megabyte ram card there was no load time. It was like playing in the arcade and the 6 button controller with a d-pad that actually made it possibly to move diagonally...it was fighter heaven.
Magical Knight Rayearth. An amazing game based on the anime of the same name. It was like playing the anime.

PC
Wing Commander 1, 2, 3 and 4. I remember I could play the first two on floppy discs(lots of them). However, Wing Commander 3 had me begging my dad to upgrade the 286 with a multimedia kit(cd rom drive and sound blaster sound card) otherwise I couldn't play the game. I went through many joysticks with those games.

I would have to go with Dinosaurs for hire or Micheal Jacksons Moonwalker on the Sega Genesis.

any of you play Intellivision

More hours than I should have.

We got one of those instead of an Atari when I was a kid. You can download some of the games for a PC, btw.

EDIT: Available for the Mac, as well. One site for both PC and Mac is linked here.

Dude this is great. I loved Intellivision. I remember horse racing.

My parents got one too.

Does this bring back memories?

That's interesting. I had a Coleco Adam with the ColecoVision gaming console built-in. The games for it also included cards that looked like that and corresponded to specific keys on the numeric key keypad.
I remember playing Q-bert, Popeye the sailer, Zaxxon, Star Trek, Sub-Roc, Fortune Builder, Donkey Kong and Gateway to Apshai.

 

[Adam]

...Zaxxon...

Woah, there's a memory. I spent more quarters than I should have playing that at the arcade.

That was like the second console I ever played in my life, Donkey Kong and Montezuma Revenge are the two games that stand out in my memory.

I personaly enjoyed the Army Men series ( espeicaly head to head ) for the PS1, and MechWarrior 3 & 4 for the PC.
