I have all these games like World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, Knights of the Old Republic 2, and even Half-Life 2(which I got on christmas and haven't even bothered to play yet), but I found myself returning to an older game. I hooked up my dusty N64 and fired up The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It's 7 years old, but it's still just as fun now as it was back then. I just love the combat system and there is nothing cooler than fighting as the adult Link.

What older games have you found yourself going back to?

Dark Forces is one of my favorite classics.

I just recently bought Hybrid Heaven, because I borrowed it once years ago and had nothing but good memories of it. The combat system rocks.

Counter Strike. I think at 6 years old, we can start calling this one a classic :)

If ANYBODY has the Zelda: OoT + Master Quest disc for Gamecube, I would like to buy it (if you have it for sale of course).

That game still ranks number one in my book, and I can hardly wait for Zelda 2.

I gotta get an N64 to PC adapter so I can try Zelda with the new texture packs with the 1964 emulator.

So I'm not the only one who likes it! YAY! :D

Lately I've been playing Goldeneye for the N64 and trying to re-finish off Mario Kart for the SNES.

Goldeneye and Mario Kart, true classics (but honestly, nothing will ever beat Duck Hunt :cool: )

I have been playing Super Mario Brothers 3 constantly this whole last week. I usually can't play a game for more than 2 hours at a time, but I can play SMB 3 all night long.

I have many N64 classics. Mario 64, Zelda Oot, SSB, Mario Kart 64, etc.

I wish I could play my NES, but I don't know how to fix it.

Oh, I've been there... But not very often lately. I still have the old A t a r i F a l c o n with lots of old games. And I still have old disks holding games for the old A t a r i S T . I only go back there to extract sounds from old games. You might find some in my movies or levels or what not.
Recently, I extracted sounds from a game called Spacola by Dongeware .

I'd rather not go through the hassle of getting my parents to buy me it online, not to mention pay 20 bucks when you can usually find it in bargain bins for 5-10

That game still owns today. Even though you can't see the guy's face, they're fun to turn into little skeletons using a firebomb.

I especially hate those monks at the end of the game.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear -- It's not that old, but I'm starting to get nostalgia when I play it from time to time.

Yeah, RS3 kicks ***. The Athena Sword expansion is good, too.
