I would say Mario 3 is timeless. It doesn't rely otheon graphics but the game play is brilliant.

other than that, surely games that are coming out now are much better?

Have you gone back and played the games you loved as a kid? They're all terrible. Nostalgia is best left in the past.

 

Nah, most of my favourite games as kid i still enjoy now.

I got a mega drive joystick game thing for Xmas, had paperboy (garbage) ghosts n goblins (good but so hard) and a few others. So disappointed. On the other hand in have r-type and r-type 2 on my tablet and they are marvellous.

1) Time Crisis series

2) SSX series

3) TOCA Touring Car series, including the reformation into GRID which remains the best racing game ever. I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.

4) WWF Smackdown 2! Know Your Role 

5) Final Fantasy 9

6) Running Wild

7) Mass Effect series

8) Cool Boarders series

I have a feeling Witcher 3: Wild Hunt might join my list. Most RPGs have something about the gameplay that I don't like (Skyrim 1st person, DA:I not one open world), Witcher doesn't from what I can see although obviously I haven't played it yet. Unfortunately although I'll pre order it I won't play it till I get back from uni at the end of May.

I played loads of games at the local arcade when I was a kid/teen. Some of my favourites were pinball machines, but I remember popping in quite a few coins into these:

 

NBA Jam, but NBA Hangtime was my favourite NBA Jam game.

Tekken (everything up until Tekken Tag, which was my favourite)

Point Blank

Virtua Fighter 2

 

I used to play the heck out of my Commodore 64 and there were loads of great games (Uridium, Bubble Bobble, Pirates, The Great Giana Sisters, Skate Or Die, etc. etc.). I think Elite still deserves a mention.

Massive shame :( amazing game, my mates and Fallout 3 kept me occupied when my wife was at uni. Brilliant immersive game

Fallout 2 is the best game of all times. Fallout 3 is a sad, pale imitation at best. Wasteland 2 is the real Fallout 3.

- Mass Effect series.

- TES series.

- GoW series.

- Rockstar games.
