Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Also, Police Quest II and Conquests of the Longbow.
And SimFarm, and SimAnt... and basically all my ooollllllddd PC games.
Admittedly, I still miss my SNES. Link to the Past... Killer Instinct is still one of my favorite fighters of all time. At first I was the masta with Jago but in the end of my time with it I became all about Sabrewulf.
It was beautiful. One day I went over to a friend's friend's house for his birthday party. For some reason the guy had never liked me, but whatever. I spent the first half of the night in the basement with his girlfriend, who was terribly distraught because she felt the need to break up with him, but certainly couldn't do such a thing on his birthday. I gave her sound counsel, and went back upstairs to the party where the birthday boy promptly declared he could whup anybody's ass in Killer Instinct.
"Excuse me?" I said. "I'll bet you that king sized pack of Pez candy on your kitchen counter that you couldn't beat me. Sabrewulf, baby!"
"Sabrewulf is slow as shit - you're on!"
The best thing about Killer Instinct is how you can beat the crap out of someone, give it the input for an Ultra Combo at the end of the fight, walk into the kitchen, take your Pez and come back into the living room before your foe hits the ground.
Postscript: His soon-to-be-ex girlfriend and I were together for two years. Good times - she had a Playstation.

That game kicked a LOT of ass... at least I thought so. I was the only person I knew (until now) who had actually played it. But I loved the damn thing, at least. =(

Swear to god I've bought those three or four times now.
Also, my Ultima Underworld CD. My first RPG ever, just disappeared when I moved house once.
YES.

It was one of the only games I know of where it took two random people, put them together, and basically forced them to be partners. I made some great friends in that game.
It makes me sad because I doubt we'll ever see a stealth based multiplayer game quite like it.
oh man, chaos theory. great memories
Link's Awakening has been lost together with the GBC I gave to my little sister when I got my GBA. I have no idea what happened to my Lego Chess disc, but I still have the manual and case somewhere.
I'm hopeful - I mean, I still have a couple boxes as of yet unpacked, but, the more I unpack, the more my hopes dim.
but you'll only need one.
Heh, I bought an Intellivision 2 with 2 controllers and at least 30+ games for about $15 dollars. Good times. Either I bought it, or a lot of people sold them for that price.
I lived in Michigan when I bought it.
Maybe it was just a ploy to get you to use the awesome detective skills you acquired while playing the games, to find them. In that case, it looks like you failed.
I miss the hell out of that game. I remember when I got my N64 I had to sell my MegaDrive to afford it, and on the day I did, I have GH one last play.
I don't know where it is. It's just... gone. I've never lent it to anyone, I've never taken it out of the house, it's just fucking gone! I can't find it anywhere, and it's driving me insane, not only because I had a 100% savefile on it, but because I never lose stuff unintentionally. I regret losing my SNES, but that was just 'cause I foolishly sold it.
God fucking damn it, now I'm pissed
I know how to get hold of them if need be...I just have too much self-dignity to go and beg for them back from someone who clearly no longer wishes to be my friend.
I'm chalking it up to poor judgement on my part and shall just have to wait until I have enough money to buy new copies. At least all of the PW games are available cheap from Capcom!
I gave it to a buddy of mine who loved to play Guitar Hero at my place. He could never afford a game system because he has 3 kids, and money is tight. Since I have my 360, I figured I'd stop by one day and give my PS2 to him along with GH1....felt good...totally made his day. (Gave him Katamari Damacy too for his kids, but I know he'll play it more than them, if he's knows a great game when he sees it)
I kept Shadow of the Colossus and ICO though. They sit on my shelf....beside my 360 games...one day I will buy another PS2 (perhaps used) when they are on the super cheap just for these. (Didn't want to risk not being able to find these games when that day comes)
I never saw it again.
Well, did you drive all the way to Québec to get it? If so, I'll buy it back!
Hey, I just thought of two games I lost the way someone described earlier in this thread (like, not sold, not lent ever, they just vanished away). Mario Paint for SNES and a 190 games in 1 bootleg cartridge for the NES. I found the former one a few years ago (I think it got into the crack in the sofa and then somehow managed to get into the sofa), and I still miss the latter.
- Blade Runner (man, do you know how awesome that game was? ). Original, boxed with manuals.
- Sam & Max Hit the Road (Managed to pick it up again as part of an LA adventure pack). Original, boxed with manuals
- Earthsiege 2 (didn't mind)
- I think this is what happened to my copy of System Shock 2 as well. Original, boxed, with manuals.
I also lost Star Trek: The Next Generation: A Final Unity. Can't say I cared much for it though.
Great times that I can never have again...
Also L.O.R.D. from my BBS days. Anyone else play that at all?

Been hoping to fix that crack addiction with a reinstall of Oblivion and a shitload of modding. Even still, I can already feel Warhammer's icy fingers around my throat.
It was a stick.
After I graduated from college in '06, I decided that I needed to keep as little junk at my parents' house as possible, since I was about to move to another state.
To this end, I took my model 1 Genesis, two six-button controllers, and collection of games (including Gunstar Heroes, Phantasy Star 4, Sonic 1-3 & Knuckles, Rocket Knight Adventures, Street Fighter 2, Mortal Kombat 2, Earthworm Jim, and others) and dropped it off a the GoodWill along with a huge box of other stuff.
I don't regret the decision; there's no way I could have taken the Genesis with me, I'm only at my parents' a couple times a year and don't spend any time playing games when I am, and eventually I'll be able to get all of my old Genesis games on the virtual console anyway. But damn, do I miss that Genesis.
I also dearly, dearly miss my Dreamcast. Thankfully I decided to hang onto the DC, and it's still sitting in a box somewhere in my parents' house, but I haven't gotten a chance to play it in years. Sigh. The hours I spent playing Marvel vs. Capcom 2 on that thing...
The worst part is a vocal minority essentially ruined the game, and there is literally no way to get it back.
Sad.
The last time we tried to play it, it would say "No Disc in Drive". It wouldn't even try to spin the disc when inserted. I guess the motor died. I still have it stored away. Maybe I'm hoping it'll work if I ever try it again.
I also miss WoW. I guess this doesn't really count since I've quit and resubscribed many times, and could resubscribe at any time. But I also know I'll never have the awesome experience I had when I levelled up my first character to 60, back when everything was new to everyone. Regardless, I'm going to try to get my girlfriend into playing it next weekend -- she'd actually like to play it, but isn't sure if she has the time at the moment. I think it can be done, but we'd have to play it very slowly and deliberately, which is the opposite of how I played it.
Don't kill me, but I never tried the multiplayer D: Think we can get a group of PAers and get some games going?
Also, does anyone remember Put-Put? You feed the purple car cereal with oil? Played that on my first PC back in, like, 1995.

Srsly, I remember when it was easy to find people to play Alpha 3 or Bomberman or Mario Kart. Now it's like I have to send out RSVP cards.
Stupid growing up.
