I am feeling video game nostalgic (now with added art rec)

[themostepotente]

I probably could have bought myself a small island with all the quarters I wasted mastering every version of Mortal Kombat.

I even have a tattoo of Sub Zero on my back. Also, I ship Raiden/Liu Kang pretty hard ♥ And SZ/Sc ♥

What are your all time favourite video games?

Mine are...

Mortal Kombat
Doom
Resident Evil
Tombraider

Scorpion [WS] by Stand Alone Complex on DA

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Tribunal and Bloodmoon to some extent.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (I got to beta Dawnguard!!)

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, especially Shivering Islands.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

I take it you like the Elder Scrolls? LOL

[xylodemon.livejournal.com]

Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Were you any good? LOL

[xylodemon.livejournal.com]

At the first three Zelda games, I was. The next one came out on N64, which I didn't have, and after that they switched to the first-person shooter vantage I can't deal with. I have a Super Nintendo that still works; I play Link to the Past all the time.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Wot? I love first person shooter games. I get to blow shit up :P

I'm not a huge gamer but I have an unhealthy addiction to Bioshock 1 and 2. Waiting for Infinite is killing me. :(

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

IKR? I've been waiting forEVER for the next installment of Doom. Nao pls.

I think I have permanent wrist damage from all the hours of Tempest.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

OMG, I LOOOOOVED Tempest. It gave you the option to start on a much harder level and show off LOL

[phoenixacid.livejournal.com]

I used to play Resident Evil and Tombraider too. Wow, it's been a while.

Oh, and the HP games!!!

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

BOOBRAIDER FTW!

I remain a pinball addict. I almost got a pinball machine in my apartment despite the lack of space, but have resigned myself to sticking to good computer pinball--the really good versions available for computer and gaming systems are satisfying. (Slam Tilt, Extreme Pinball, Williams Hall of Fame Collection.)

Classic video games: Centipede, Tempest, Dragon's Lair.

Classic computer games: Tetris, Monkey Island

Current gaming system games: Dance Dance Revolution! :D

The one computer game I play these days, at intervals, is Enzai (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzai:_Falsely_Accused). :D I know, I know, GIANT PERV.

♥ DRAGON'S LAIR ♥

I got a shiver just typing that LOL

How much do I wanna see Amers play DDR? *G*

I've never played video games - never owned a Playstation, Nintendo, Sega or whatever they were called. I remember my older brother spending money on those arcade game-machines during the summer holidays.
On the computer, however, I used to play The Sims, and I was thrilled when I discovered how other Sims-fans made costumized skins, objects and such so we could make Roman Sims. :D That's probably the only computer game I've really played a lot. (Scratch that; that's more or less the only computer game I've played! :p)
I've always been more about books and music. :)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Wasn't there an HP Sims?

[a_belladonna]

Yes, there was. Of course I also had a Harry Potter neighbourhood, complete with a number 4, Privet Drive. ;) It of course was more fun/made more sense when they released the "Makin' Magic"-extension. But one of the discs of my copy has since broke and so I can't re-install it and play it. :(

My favorite old-school arcade games were Lock 'n' Chase (based on the Japanese anime Lupin the Third), Mappy, Crystal Caves, Joust, and Dig-Dug. The later games I enjoyed were Doom II and Kingdom Hearts.

If you are a fan of ANY type of video game, then you MUST see Disney's upcoming 3D animated feature "Wreck-It Ralph."

The trailer alone is chockfull of cameos of video game characters. I was so delighted to see Qbert. :)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

OMGOSH! THAT LOOKS WONDERFUL!

I'm not normally a fan of Disney Pixxar, but I have to see that. So much love for this already \0/

[chantefable.livejournal.com]

My favourite is Minesweeper. Pretty badass. Particularly the special effects. *g*

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

I LOVE MINESWEEPER!

Except when I blow up.

[chantefable.livejournal.com]

So do I.

Yes, that is inconvenient.

[scificionado.livejournal.com]

Kill the Pedestrian.
I'm showing my age, since this was an arcade game. Also, it's the only video game I've ever played, unless
you count Mah-jongg and Solitaire on my cell phone.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Kill the Pedestrian? Rly? This was totes a real game? I am 42 and don't recall this.

Also, so much love for Mahjongg. It's a pitty they don't make a decent computer version. I've tried two to no avail.
