Witcher 3

Very good game

Red Dead Redemption 2
Fallout: New Vegas
Rolling Thunder 2 (Megadrive)
Final Fantasy 7 (Original for PS1)
Kingdom Hearts (Playstation 2)

And.. currently, sadly, I'm playing Apex Legends on PC and I cannot stop.

Command and Conquer
Tomb Raider

Hungry Horace

Last Ninja commodore 64

Medal of Honor:Airborne PS3

Doom PS4

Only played Fifa 20 recently, but if we're going back in time...

Manic Miner
Mario Kart... Inchy will remember beating me on small.
Football/Championship Manager
Pro Evo Soccer

Any of the Dark Souls series, would probably choose DS1 as my favourite

Red dead redemption 2
GTA V
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Gran Turismo 4
Football Manager series.

Nes - Mario
Megadrive - Sonic, Desert Strike, Golden Axe.
N64 - Goldeneye
Snes - Street Fighter 2
PS1 - command and conquer, Abes Odyssey.
Xbox original- Halo, Fable.
PS2/3/4 - Cod/Medal of Honor FPS style stuff.
PC - World of Warcraft, Sim City, Footy manager games.

I've lost track of the number of games I've played and I'd probably change some of that list on another day.

Despite playing violent games for so long I've yet to kill anyone

Worth watching High Score on Netflix if you're interested in how gaming began and expanded.

Used to play FIFA on PS until the step-kids commandeered it.

Not played Pro Evo in years but I always thought it was better than Fifa. Fifa 20 on the Xbox One was very very poor, and Pro Evo could easily better it, if they're as good as they were.

I only lapped you once, so could have done better, ha. What a game though. A classic that even now, people would enjoy playing.

Mario kart and Goldeneye on the N64 were the best. 3 awesome years at uni playing these solidly.

Two relics that I have very fond memories of playing round my mates house during the school holidays
Daley Thompson’s decathlon & International soccer

Sounds like you're a similar age to me. Mario Kart on the SNES was brilliant though. N64 was what, late 90s going on 2000?

We had one at our house in the Uni days.

Manic Miner

They came up with Sonic to compete with Mario on the SNES. Just a random fact for you there. I remember reading that it was actually drawn up as a very quick draft and Sega liked it and it went from there. Had Nintendo not had Mario, they probably wouldn't have bothered.

Mario fan though over Sonic. Thought the SNES was much better than than the Megadrive.

Sonic. An incredible game for its time.

Where to begin:

Medal of Honour - Frontline (ps2)
Medal of Honour - Allied Assault (PC)
Goldeneye - (N64)
GTA 4 - (PS3)
Fifa 98 - The road to the World Cup (PS1)
Mario Kart Racing - (N64)
Crash Team Racing - (PS1)
Red Dead Redemption - (PS3)

Edit: just seen Sonic, it was built in to my first Master System. Great times.
I was a Sega lad over Nintendo.

Halo 3

Championship Manager 01/02

Mafia

I do not even know what that means

Nanosaur 2 by Pangea.

Wasted a few years on it, when it came free with my Mac.

There was another game with it where one had to tip a surface to move a ball.

Trouble is that I had total recall of it, in bed after so I stopped playing it.
