Best Game ever?

[dracolusus]

whats a dosbox and where can i get it?

Its a dos emulator and it works rather well considering Windows sucks so much

Google it, you should find and if you want games, try www.freeoldies.com

I'm gonna throw one into the mix here. We used to play "Iron Man Off-road Racing" for hours on end - 4 of us on one keyboard! I still have it in my DOSBox collection - only now I can max out a car in under an hour...

I remember finding it in an arcade once! Couldn't resist the urge to play right there and then... Also, during my primary-school days I had an obsessive fascination with dinosaurs (which school-boy doesn't? ), so it was at about that time that Primal Rage came out. It was violent and it had dinosaurs in. I was in heaven...

I loved that, as well as Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, it rocked. I spend my entire allowance for ages, in the arcade cause of that game.

I remember that as well! Too bad the TV show sucked... Dinoriders, on the other hand, were AWESOME.

That was the *****!!! Man I begged my parents to get m-net just so I could watch, took them ages so I was at a friends house every afternoon it was on.

Hahaha - yeah, I was the same. My first glimpse of it was at Sun City in a hotel room! Collected some of the toys as well...

Don't have a best game, but these are my favourite or were my favourite in the good old days...

Arcade - Street Fighter 2 - Champion Edition. Spend all my pocket money on this one. SF2 started the "Fighting Game" craze.

Arcade - Skywolf - Clocked this game.

Arcade - Super Mario Bro - Clocked this game. First platformer I played. Then brought the Nes version. Real classic

Nes - Contra

Nes - Super Mario bro 3

Nes - Ninja Gaiden

PS1 - Metal Gear Solid

PS1 - Teken 2 - Best close combat game in those days.

N64 - Super Mario 64 - My first true 3d game

N64 - Golden Eye - First time I played 4 player shooter on a console. Can't
forget that. Really intense.

PC - Duke Nukem 3d

PC - Star Craft - Best strategy game period. Multiplayer rocks.

PC - Diablo 1 and 2 - Good old RPG.

PC - Unreal Tournament 2004 - I prefer this over Quake 3. Real Action Shoot em' up

DC - Soul Caliber 2 - Beutiful graphics and smooth animation and control.

PS2 - GTA 3 and San Andreas

PS2 - Metal Gear Solid 2 (Good Gameplay, Story Sucks)

PS2 - God of war 1 and 2

PS2 - Grand Turismo 3 - The endless tweaking of cars. Rear wheel drive, 4 wheel drive where does it stop.

Xbox 360 - Gears of war - Real good gameplay. Solid action.

Xbox 360 - Bioshock

PS3 - GTA 4

Enuff said.

Everyone knows that only "Killer Instinct" can hold the title of "the best game, ever".

Facepalm ! Soul Calibur 2 was never on the dreamcast ! only soul Calibur 1 which was a DC exclusive (I know since I still have my dreamcast and my original copy of sc1)

Regarding the best game
I dont have a Best game as There will never Be one but Spartan X is one of the best games i'v ever played and Pinball Action

from a graphical standpoint i would say definitely Half Life 1 as it pushed the pc and the quake engine to its limits when it came out in 98.
