Gee, I wonder.
Actually, I have time today, so I am going to list a few:
EARTHBOUND is my favorite game, rivalled only by MOTHER and MOTHER 3. They are magical experiences in the form of little gray cartridges.
Little Nemo: The Dream Master (NES): This was the first video game I owned. In the sense that my dad brought my brother and me to Toys R Us and said we could each pick a game. I had excellent taste even as a seven-year-old.
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES): I spent a good chunk of my childhood on this game, even though I never beat it properly until I was a senior in college.
Seiken Densetsu 3 (SNES): Square/soft/-enix has never topped this as far as I'm concerned. Bawwww why wasn't it ever released outside of Japan bawwww
Mega Man 4 (NES): S-shut up this is the best Mega Man.
Yoshi's Island (SNES): What, you thought I wasn't going to include a Mario game? I think my brother and I got this for making honor roll one year. Best reward ever.
King's Quest 4: The Perils of Rosella (PC): I think this is actually the fist video game I ever saw because my parents were big into it when I was three or so. Which means I can blame my video game obsession entirely on them. Whoohoo!
The Journeyman Project 2: Buried in Time (PC): This game made me feel smart. I thought I was a GENIUS when I figured out the trick to getting to the wrecked space station before my dad dideven though he figured it out shortly after and actually got there in his save before I did. more people should play this series, it's so unloved.
Zork Nemesis (PC): Speaking of feeling smart, this is one of the few adventure games I've gotten though with no hints or outside help or anything. SMRT.
Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers (PC): I have NO IDEA why my dad let me play this when I was 12. 12-YEAR-OLDS HAVE NO BUSINESS PLAYING THIS (AND THE OTHER TWO FOR THAT MATTER). But it's pretty cool.
The Dig (PC): Yes.
