    Oh well, in 16 pages of pictures it's easy to miss. Point is, Pokemon Blue was/is an awesome game.

    Omg |Crash| massive rep points for you. I totally forgot about Treasure Mathstorm and Treasure Cove.

    I will also add a classic...the 4-player X-men arcade game from Konami. My friends and I spent many a quarter.

    And yes, the 4-player X-men arcade game definitely consumed much of my lunch money when I was a kid hahah!

    I don't think anyone put up this game yet. If they did, I apologize but WC2 was my game back in the 90s :cool: I did not like the FMV ones as much, but that was all the rage back then (OMG FMV is the future :rolleyes: )

    For a game that's already over 6 years old, it still looks pretty amazing. :)
    These screens also show what the game can look today, when fans with some serious skill have spend years on modding the graphics. I think it looks pretty close to or even better than Oblivion.

    I remember playing RE1 when I was 12 or so. Really scared me. The intro movie thing was acted in such a cheesy way that made me laugh.

    It's nine years old, but I still think that it's one of the best games ever made. When the PSX emulator for the iPhone gets a little better, I'll probably give it one more playthrough.
