This fucking game, right here.

My dad and I played this for hours, doing one mission each, kept failing some but we had a laugh doing it.

I watched him play a lot of skirmish matches, he enjoyed doing tank rushes on the hardest difficulty, while I enjoyed playing defensively and wait for them to attack me.

Man, I wish he was still around so I can play with him some more. RIP Dad.

If I ever hear the Mute City theme (the default one, not the Easter egg one), I actually get a bit choked up since it reminds me of my first experience with the arcade version. I'm reminded how incredible it felt.

It reminds me that series is dead.

The entire Fallout franchise. And yes, that includes 3. No other series has blended survival rpg elements, exploration, cheesy humor, and enticing gameplay as well as it. Not to mention its one of the few game collections where I can noticeably feel my character getting stronger.

Shitty Xbox 360s games like CoD, GoW. Personally the games themselves weren't really what I was interested in, but just chatting with my buddy who I would play them with. He was one of the few people I felt like I could talk to and trusted. He passed away a few years ago, and I still miss him everyday.

The entirety of my first playthrough of Grim Fandango. I got it when it first came out, when I was 14. For me, it's GOTY, every year.

I had it on my first toaster, /v/. It had a Pentium 133, from sometime in 1996. It barely ran anything anymore. Even though it was running at maybe 20 FPS in an empty hallway, I was having great fun. It took me 14 hours straight to get from Manny's office to The Meadow, and it was the best 14 hours of my life so far.

Now, sixteen or so years, four toasters, seven consoles, three handhelds, and... I dunno, thousands of games later, I still haven't found a game that I've had as much fun with.

my deepest sympathies man

I remember playing pic related when I was about 12 years old. I had it specially imported from the US because it wasn't released in europe until a couple of years later. I just needed to have the game so much I saved up like crazy and finally got it. Once I got it I played it constantly and even bunked off my paper round just to play. Introduced my little sister to it aswell and she got hooked as well.

shes dead now ;_;

There's a shitton of Amiga games I still keep around that make me go back to good old days in the early 90s when I usually went to the seaside with a small TV (14", drove about 300km through the country), hooked the Amiga to it and had jolly good time with stuff like Hired Guns and Genesia. Even invited some other kids to play stuff like Chaos Engine.

The resort we were staying at has changed so much nowadays, that I know going there would hurt me more than anything. I had too many good memories of those times.

Awhile ago, I thought I'd log in to RS just to see what's changed. I made the mistake of opening the "Friends" tab and a flood of memories I ever had playing the game with my RS friends came rushing back to me. Holy fuck, each glance at a name brought back countless moments of laughter, fun, stories, and friendships I thought I'd forgotten. But all this was washed away by a sobering yet saddening realization:

Just thinking of that whole 2 moths I spent on Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen. Fuck. One of the best games I've played in a long time. That fucking fight with Grigori was one of the best boss fights I've ever played. Doing bitterblack runs with a couple of different anon's pawns for rift bucks, grinding like fuck for those cursed level 3 weapons and armor. A great fucking game that deserves and sequel and, hopefully, a PC release.

Then there's also STALKER SoC. It was a couple of years back. I picked it up on a whim on a cold as fuck winter day. Played it all the way through. Non stop. I just couldn't put it down.

Halo 3 was the reason I got an Xbox 360.
From playing matchmaking, to being a part of some (horrible) machinima projects, I really had some unique experiences through that game. I also met so many interesting people on Xbox LIVE at that time.
IMO 2007-2010 was truly the golden era of Xbox LIVE.

City of Heroes and WoW from Classic to really early Wrath of the Lich King.

That was when I played MMOs with my one really close friend; before her health issues cropped up, before several friends betrayed her and hurt her terribly.

I remember bouncing around across rooftops with her as she got me into any group I ever wanted in City of Heroes because she was considered the best, most friendly Empath Healer on the server and if you wanted her, you had to get me as well.

Or how on our WoW server the Rogues never tried to gank one of us because if they knew if they tried, a very angry Mage or Priest was right nearby ready to join in.

She was so vibrant, so full of life back then.

I have a similar story. Back when I was younger I always played video games with the youngest of my two cousins that were brothers. He was still older than me but we enjoyed playing games. Then came a time when they were leaving for germany for 3 years because of my aunts work. We played dragon ball budokai the whole night before they had to go and as always it was fun as fuck. 3 years later they come back and hes doing drugs. Doesnt play video games anymore and I rarely see him.

>>260807996
FUCK. I spent so much time on this game I'm convinced I would be a totally different person if I never was introduced by my cousin. Never would of have kicked it off with my best friend of 10 plus years or anything. Weird.
>>
>>260784821
Basically any time I sat down and played hours of Smash or Mario Kart with friends and/or family, but mostly family. Lots of other games too, like Soul Calibur 2. Especially since I'm the only one in my immediate family who ever even really plays those games anymore.

Being ridiculously hyped for Kingdom Hearts in the fourth grade, buying it like day 1, my parents letting me take a day off from school for once to play it, and it absolutely living up to the hype for me.

Receiving a GBA for Christmas one year from my grandmother and playing hours of the GBA port of Yoshi's Island.
