[Technology] What is your 1 favourite computer / console game?









Hard to list one .... so I'll break the rules :

Montains of Khan (?) - Dragon 32
Wizball - C64 .... I think
Kick Off 2 - Atari ST
Paradroid - Atari ST
Good shout on Paradroid 90, I loved playing it on the ST.

The arse end of Hangleton
Gauntlet

Doom

Duke Nukem

Gauntlet was FAR better on the pub/arcade machines than any console. Good call on the other two though. Remember playing Doom on a Netware network when I worked at Lloyds Private Banking ..... AND getting paid for it !

Ocarina of Time (N64)
Goldeneye (N64)
Perfect Dark (N64)
Donkey Kong 64 (N64)
Colin McRae Rally (PS1)
GTA: Vice City (PS2)
Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (PS2)
Timesplitters 2 (PS2)
Fable 2 (360)
GTA V (Xbox One)

The N64 will always be my favourite, i play it more than my Xbox One and I collect for the N64 too. The graphics of the N64 might be basic in comparison, but no game feeling has come close to when playing Ocarina of TIme, you finally step out into the vastness of Hyrule Field. It's small by modern standards, but by god it felt HUGE at the time.

The original Resident Evil on the Playstation.

I could name a few Spectrum games which I loved back in the day, but I'd probably think they were rubbish if I played them now!

Sensible Soccer, Amiga

Kickstart 2 48k spectrum (sorry I posted already but had to add this and California Games on the Lynx)

I'm guessing we're a similar age as these two are both massive favourites from my youth! In my nerdier moments (which were regular), I also LOVED The Settlers ☺

Sensible Soccer, Amiga

Sensible Soccer on the Atari was KING of football games.

Memories of the long range curler into the far top corner - dribble towards the far corner flag from just inside the touchline and just inside their half... hit shoot then pull back on the joystick to UNLEASH

:goal:

Pro Evo - N64

Do you mean ISS? Pro Evo was never released on the N64, but Konami made football games for the console under the International Superstar Soccer name.
