    Street fighter was practically my life as a child. My brother and I had many a fight over street fighter!

    Who was everyone's favourite character?

    We even had a video of the film version with Kylie and Jean Claude Van Damme!

    MegaDrive and Master System for me, so games like... Sonic, Alex Kidd, Wonderboy in Monster Land, Shinobi, AfterBurner, Rampage, Double Dragon, Columns, Road Rash, Mortal Kombat II, Super Hang-On, Bomberman and many more

    Also have fond memories of playing Amiga and Atari ST at friends houses after school: Moonstone, Turrican, Midnight Resistance, Rainbow Islands, Xenon 2, etc

    SF2 Turbo on SNES :coma: I used Sagat and Ryu. I could never work out how to perform a dragon punch though, lol. Blanka was good for beginners.

    Off the top of my head, they are what made me... me. I usually go back to at least two of them every couple of months to complete again; FF7, oh how much I have played thee...

    I had Dog's life too! I really liked it until I got to the point where I didn't know how to progress any further in the game and just ended up leaving it ): I remember all the different colour smells!
    I liked Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly too.
    Also, Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex.
    Rayman.
    The Sims.
    The Sims 2.
    Sims Urbz (I was quite a big sims fan )
    I loved Dog's Life. Which part were you stuck on? I can complete it every time. Rayman and Crash were awesome too. But what I really liked about Dog's Life was that it's such a simple concept, yet it had never been done before. I really hope they'll make a sequel some day.

    Wow a lot of really good games here. I had just about every platform game with an animal as the playable character.

    Did anyone ever play Banjo Kazooie or Conker's Bad Fur Day?

    Conkers bad fur day is by far THE funniest game I've ever played, that sunflower, that d-day, that singing poo..One of the greatest games ever involving a drunk squirrel

    The platformers: spyro, crash and jak and daxter. Also, tombi the pink haired boy in green pants who jumped on pigs.

    The harry potter ps1 games also made my childhood. In general, it got very negative reviews but they were absolutely magical games. So many memories playing them.

    Another one is the RPG morrowind. The first ever RPG that I ever played and I'm so glad my uncle introduced me to it!
