Post a video of the game that turned you into a video game junkie

As a kid, this is the one that did it.

Tecmo Bowl... And yes, Bo Jackson was really this unstoppable

Enough said. Best game ever. Period.

TooCool,

Those graphics were almost as amazing as another early favorite of mine:

Atari 2600 - Defender

The system that came out in my formative years was the 64. We all know how revolutionary it was, and I never could play only one game. I cycled through like 10 different games and it's impossible to name just one that got me hooked.

1. Super Mario 64
2. Mario Kart 64
3. Diddy Kong Racing
4. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
5. Donkey Kong 64
6. Mario Party 64
7. Goldeneye 007
8. Mario Golf
9. Wrestlemania 2000
10. Banjo-Kazooie

Back when you could hit someone so hard the ambulance came onto the field...

The song also echoes my feelings on the new hitting rules: "So put on a skirt if you come on the field and don't wanna get hurt!"

Epic horsecollar at :23
And that Randy Moss catch at :48 is epic.

What can I say??



And this game just settled it.



I still plug it in when i play the old gamecube.

I didn't even think to add handheld games. I'd like to add Pokemon RBY to my list from above lol. I was a Nintendo whore.

[bing!]

I'm sorry, but I just.can't.pick.one!

... and now the memories are flooding in... damn this thread.

OK, just this one...

Maniac Mansion

... it's still one of the greatest p'n'c adventure games.
