Mariokart! Loved it!

Also I spent innumerable hours playing Dark Cloud and Dark Chronicle ( I have a feeling this was, inspirationally, called Dark Cloud 2 in America)

Micro Machines and Worms on PS1. I spent many a chemically altered night playing Worms at uni.

Goldeneye on N64

Time Crisis and Point Blank were sooooo good!

As a youngster I loved frogger and Mario brothers.

I was seriously addicted to Quake 3 Arena for a couple of years - then after a sad event in my life I put it down and haven't played it since.

I like the brain age games on the DS as well as Scribblenauts!

I love viva piņata (yea it is a kids game but it is addictive - trust me ) on the xbox 360. I also loved A kingdom for keflings ( an xbox live arcade game) and worms 2:Armageddon is freakin AWESOME! Guitar hero world tour has to be one of the top games as well!

I am currently obsessed with my Wii so...

MarioKart for the Wii!!! So much fun, especially when you have at least two wheels and can get a bunch of friends to play with you. I also love the Sims Castaway for the Wii and Nintendo is putting out Super Mario Bros for the Wii next week which should be neat. I grew up playing the old Super Mario Bros games so I have a soft spot for them mfr_lol.gif

For the DS:
Cooking Mama, Civilization Revolution, SimCity Creator (this is TERRIBLE on the Wii but good on the DS), The Sims 2, Brain Age
The Black Sheep
PC:

Deus Ex: The Conspiracy (all time favorite. an oldie though)
Thief
WoW
Aion
Trine

PS3:

Assassin's Creed, Yay the new one is almost here!
Drake's Fortune

360:

Army of Two
Gears of War
AdamR
I'm surprised Worms has been mentioned twice! I didn't think many people ever played them. Definitely fun to get a few friends together, have some drinks or whatever you prefer, and play. Good times!
Ratticis
Now for my projects that I hopefully will finish someday;

Furious George
Santa; North Pole Ninja
Draconia
Tales Of Galactica (Working Title)
Wheelchair Racing
Suicide Man (I finished this once, but wanna polish it up a bit)
Race World (Working Title loosly based on Final Lap Twin for the TG16)
Race World Online (MMO version of above)
Ches
Maniac Mansion on nintendo was sweet..
Im a Sony kinda girl so my soft spot is for Sonic.. who is super hard on the ps3..geez.
I used to get down on Urban Combat when PS first came out.
Loving Uncharted 2
Little Big Planet rocks
Just about any Sims is good
The original Test Drive is bad ass
Any Street Fighter will do
And ALL those game show games...

And Pimpwars online!
Beautiful

MarioKart is totally one of my favorite Wii games! I've played through it so many times now. My sister is super excited for Super Mario Bros. We were looking at the "trailers" for it on the Wii the other night.

Super Mario Galaxy on the Wii is fun too, but I am not a good gameplayer. Growing up, I always watched my sister play. Games like MarioKart don't require you to press more than 3 buttons at a time, which is good for me! Lol.

I have to watch what guy friends i tell that i like the Wii. They think it's sissy.....of course i'm not telling anyone that my bf plays it more than me. lol, but ya, mario kart, super mario galaxy i love, mario bros and sonic winter olympic games, they are all fun to enjoy w/ my kids. I like the bowling too. It's the only way i still can. I used to be really really good

BUT MY FAVS ARE

PS3: MADDEN 10 DEFINITELY!!! I LOOOOOOOOVEEE FOOTBALL, EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!! If I could coach it I would be the happiest woman in the world!!! I always wanted to be the world's first female NFL referee!! Can't happen now, but it was a happy thought before!!

Gears of War!! Was very addictive.
MX vs ATV It's the only way i can still ride motocross!
Rainbow 6 Vegas 2! love it, and pretty much most of the other fighting war games

I still have a friend that has a nintendo, the origianl and i loved that w/ duck hunt when i was little.
Loved donkey kong w/ nintendo 64 and for some weird reason i was really addicted to Dr. mario w/ my nintendo ( it was like tetris in a weird way ) my mom was addicted also.
I then got a sega, and the only two games my parents could afford was "ECHO" the dolphin. lmao, funny, but i played it. And then sonic pinball game.

I was too young for this when it started, but i play it now on the PS3

DRAGON'S LAIR!!! So much fun!!! And dragon's lair II, it reminds me of our old cartoons back in the day.

I still can't do Rainbow Road on MarioKart at 150cc. I can't stay on the track and it drives me crazy! I play with the guys from my shop sometimes and they can do all these cool moves hahah. I've been playing MySims on my Wii and it's a lot of fun if you like The Sims games. I want to find some of those Super Mario Bros trailers online! It comes out in a couple days and I'm excited, lol.

Hey Kodie - May I ask how you play MW2? - or what gear you use? I'm a complete c5/c6 so I just thought you might have a trick or two up your sleeve ... biggrin.gif

Ok. I'll try to explain this best I can lol. I'm in a tilt power chair so I start off by reclining a bit. Then, I lay the controller (buttons up of course tongue.gif) on my lap. I control the analog sticks with the palms of my hands. The X, O, square and triangle buttons, I control with the side of my right thumb. L1/2 and R1/2 are tricky lil boogers! The way I use those are with the sides of my hands (kinda where your thumb joins your hand). Ok, I dunno if that helped at all lol! I did the best I could! smile.gif I figured all this out in 2002 on the ps2, so it's evolved quite a bit. Just test out different positions for the controller. It took me a long time and ALOT of trial and error, but I somehow managed to get pretty decent at it! smile.gif

Best of luck!

If any of you like old school D&D type games, Dragon Age: Origins is absolutely incredible! PC Gamer said it was the spiritual successor to Baulder's Gate (one of my all time favorite games). From playing it, I'd say it's far more than that. The storylines themselves are incredible.

I've had an incredible time just creating characters and learning the back-stories they have. That's what I love about this game. A human noble is far different from a city elf from a mage. Just going through the starting stories is amazing!

My highest level character is some 25 hours into the game now and he's nowhere near the end. But, I'm taking my time and exploring, too. I would recommend it for the PC, if you have that option. I read the 360 version of it isn't quite as good. One problem I remember reading about is there is no way to scroll out to get a top down view of the battlefield on console versions.
Ratticis
I always love a good story. That's why I'm pretty much a fan of anything by squaresoft, though all there stories seem to smell pretty simaler in the "kid from small village 50 miles from nowhere saves the world and finds love on the way" sence
