I had been through four consoles and five jobs before most of the games in the notes had come out.
My top five were virtually chiselled on stone tablets by comparison :)
-Copy Kitty
-Undertale
-Super Smash Bros. (4 & Ultimate)
-Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
-Fantasy Life
Have you played the new Fantasy Life? It's great
I have, and i like it very much :)
The instructions are contradictory. I’m not sure how it’s possible to comply.
• Pac-Man (Atari 400)
• Pole Position (Arcade)
• Parsec (TI-99/4A)
• The Legend of Zelda (NES)
• Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 (PC)
Off the top of my head:
Oh wait, Elite (BBC, Amstrad, and ST) — probably more so than Xenon.
Games that i bonded with my siblings playing growing up. Our lives would have not been the same without them.
Duck Hunt, Super Mario Bros, Xena Warrior Princess, Going Quackers, Pokémon Stadium
I was in high school when I bought my first console, so it's pretty much just Landstalker and Phantasy Star IV.
Commander Keen
Neverhood
Earthbound
Super Mario World
Secret of Mana
california games.
Flowers of crystal.
Tetris.
Daedelian opus.

ET because fuck me and fuck that game
Atari 2600 ET?
Yeah. Not the best game ever made :)
Given i was like, five at the time i did not find out that game was so shite it murdered the console industry for decades. I spent .years thinking I was just horrible at videogames. So mad about that.
Twisted Metal 2 Final Fantasy 7 Legend of Dragoon Final Fantasy 8 Hydro Thunder
Age of Empires II and Rollercoaster Tycoon, that's about it.
I was born in 1995, but didn't have a capable PC until my late teens so I was stuck with whatever ran on my win98 potato without internet connection. Great games though, still play them today
My cut-off date for "teen years" is the year you were born. 🧓
No order:
•Chrono Trigger •FFVII •Panzer Dragoon Saga •GTA3 •EverQuest •(Street Fighter Alpha 2 is up there too)
What an interesting way to look at demographics!
I m old.
You really aren't.
The first one on my list was a game in the arcade, then a game on the Atari 2600 :)
Damn, Atari 2600 looks so old. The oldest I have is nes kungfu. The sound effects are classic.
Minecraft, Team Fortress 2, Apex Legends, Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare (1 and 2) and Terraria. I'm not very old X)
Am I young or everyone else old?
stone tablets
Right there with ya OP!
Commodore Vic 20/Commodore64: Clowns, Omega Race, a space station game, Ghosts and Goblins, Zork, there was a Transformers game (looked fan made), Lode Runner, and about a dozen more

||| Child Youth gap |||
New Vegas
Borderlands 2
Going to date myself very specifically. 🙃
And here I am trying to figure out what Child Youth Gap is lol I played through burnout 3 a year ago, it is soooo good still ❤️
The gap between child and teen. Distinct time frames.
It so holds up. Blame that game for the pop punk flavor I love in music lol
That's usually the case for me too, but these games in the screenshot are older than the ones I tend to see in other posts like this so this one doesn't make me feel as old.
Don't remember which game specifically, but the moment when you're escaping out if the bowels of a living planet is unforgettable. Also the game is overall kinda creepy, I had hard time playing it lol.
More towards my mid-teens, found about borderlands. Played it through and through, found great people in borderlands forums, it introduced me to so many good songs that are at the top of my playlists to this day. Two very great games.
Speaks for itself. There will never be a game remotely close to how good TF2 was. Even TF2 itself.
Also some honorable mentions:
And only recently I discovered World of Warcraft, specifically Wrath of the Lich King. Don't really have anyone to play with, but sometimes it's fun tanking for the entire group of randoms. I really enjoy tanking, when I know where to lead the group to lol.
A strategy game where you play as a mech that goes nuclear when destroyed, name is long forgotten sadly
Total Annihilation.
Supreme Commander as mentioned by others was the spiritual successor but I recall it didn't fill the shoes of TA.
I haven't played this yet, but I've heard Beyond All Reason is a very good Total Annihilation-like: https://www.beyondallreason.info/
Omg yes, it's actually both, I played both of them. Thank you!
Elite, Hanse, Pirates, Castles of Dr. Creep, Lode Runner.
Bonus points if you know any of them...
Elite was the first "proper" video game I played on a computer. Before that it was all games in the arcade, and on the Atari 2600.
Also (from a certain point of view) the first RPG I played (excluding D&D obviously -- I'm not an animal!).
