[quoteost_uid0="weezer"]...why did you put playstation as "old school" ?
you do know that they still make games for it right?[/quote]
Because Playstation has been out for over 6 years now. I tried to list "older" Playstation games; I think the newest one in my list is probably Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2.

[quoteost_uid0="Troy88"]I've been playing video games since I was 5 years old, and I've went through many systems in my time. All of the new systems that are out right now are very nice, but some the best games that I've ever played were on systems that are currently dead. That's what this thread is about. Tell us about your favorite older games, what system they were on, and why you liked them so much (if you feel like it). And I don't want to see any Gamecube, $-box, or PS2 games in ur list, dammit!

Here are my personal favorite.

I never was much of a Sega fan, so that's why this list is short.

Turbo Graphics 16

Most of you probably never even heard of this system. It came out in the mid-80s when NES was going strong. It was a cool little system; the games were actually little cards the size of a football card, and the contollers had turbo controls built right into them. Ultimately, it died because it couldn't compete with Nintendo. But there were a few games that were decent for it.

Salamander
Dungeon Explorers (a lot like "Gauntlet," multi-player rocked)
Keith Courage
Bloody Wolf
Castlevania X: The Rondo of Blood (we got a watered-down version of this for SNES, not nearly as good as the original)
Gradius
Bonk's Adventure
Legendary Axe
Ninja Spirit
R-Type

Playstation:

Battle Arena Toshinden
Parasite Eve
ESPN Extreme Games
King's Field
King's Field 2
Final Fantasy VII
Blood Omen: The Legacy of Kain
Total Eclipse Turbo (almost impossible to beat)
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (the best Castlevania game ever made, I think)
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 (awesome sound track, awesome play controls, excellent replay value, and the 2-player games were kick-ass)
Twisted Metal
Resident Evil 3 (my favorite out of the series)

N64:

Goldeneye
Super Mario 64
The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time (I was sure that 3-D would kill this series, but I was dead wrong on that one; I was quite impressed with this game)
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Killer Instinct Gold (not as good as the first one, but still worth playing)
F-Zero X
Mario Kart 64

N64 was cool because it re-introduced analog controls to the gaming scene. Kind of ironic when you think about it, considering that Nintendo killed the joystick with their "D-Pad." I really like the N64 controller, in fact, it's probably my favorite next to the PS2 (although I don't like the PS2 D-Pad for some reason; it seems less responsive, and that little gap in the middle messes me up when I'm playing fighting games).
N64 had some decent games, but by the time it came out, I was already sold on Playstation. The N64 is probably the last Nintendo game system I'll ever own.

Well...that's about it for me. You can feel free to list your favorite arcade games along with your favorite console games (so long as it's an older game; in other words I don't want to see Tekken 4 in your list )[/quote]
I've played all those games and I also like final fantasy 2,
Oh and I played every Megaman X and Dragonball Z game.(I didn't like X4 because of Megaman or Rockman X's voice,and Mega/Rockman X5 had no voice in american and the plot stinked, oh I didn't like every DB game either.
EVERY FINAL FANTASY besides 10 and 11.(You don't hear about one that much but I got it. ) every STREET FIGHTER an combonations of games and don't get me started on "Sonic The Hedgehog"(long list) That rounds it up besides Killer instinct Gold and every Dreamcast and Playstation2 and 1 games that it.(Oh not that Britiny Spears game) Oh and All the Mario games and those Dolphin games Mickey mouse games snes and Genesis oh Phantasy Star games and Militry Games I was rised on games.(Spider man Games on snes and Genesis and PS 1 and 2 thats it for now I'll look though my stuff.
