List 'em folks.

Sega Genesis and Nintendo 64.

[Hailto]

Sega Genesis is one of my favorites, fond memories of Sonic and that Ninja Turtles game.

Arcade games. I work for an amusement company so other then EQ and the occasional hour or 3 playing Black Ops 2 on PS3 i spend alot of time working on and playing arcade games. My enjoyment on playing them really depends on how much work i had to do to the machine to get it working in the first place.

I spent more time on an Atari 2600 than anything I've had since.

Fond memories of 4 player arcade games, TMNT, The Simpsons (nobody wanted to play Marge though), even the old Gauntlet games...awesome :)

We have a one of these cabinets that has been scrapped for parts for the last 7 years. Eventually I'm gonna do something with the cabinet:

^^ had it on the N64(?) I think? Wasn't as good as the arcade though.

[katrik]

SNES would be my favorite! So much love!

yea the dreamcast one was actually the best port of it to console, it's basically the same as the arcade graphically and in gameplay

I played it first on Gamecube with my little brother. Was a fun game.

[Klendathu]

SNES. Period.

[Swish]

Street Fighter 2 on the SNES was an all time favourite. My friend had it on his Megadrive (Genesis to you US folks), and it was a horrible port...had to press start to switch from punches to kicks.

SNES was the better console but games like Road Rash 2, Sonic games and various others kept it competitive :)

[Hex]

Probably Golden Eye 64 was the most fun I ever had on a console game.

[Thulack]

Road Rash on Sega Channel and 4 Player Goldeneye on N64 were also 2 very fond memories.

[Hailto]

Probably Golden Eye 64 was the most fun I ever had on a console game.

Oh man, so many rage filled multiplayer matches. Good times.

[gotrocks]

SNES hands down

[Barkingturtle]

NES.

The games make EQ nostalgia pale by comparison. Sometimes I just let the music from Shadowgate play in the background while I'm making love with my wife.

[lawll]

Sega defiantly and games off the top of my head like altered beast, sonic, xmen, zombies ate my neighbors,nba jam, streets of rage 1/2, battletoads, mortal combat and aladdin.

[Kagatob]

Snes/Genesis. NES/N64 right behind those.

[Gwence]

there's really only 5 console games that lead the way when talking about rage induced drunk brawls of epic proportions with your friends

1) Fusion Frenzy on Xbox or Xbox 360 (maybe it's on other consoles, dunno)

2) Call of Duty 2 for me, but probably works with any call of duty if you're playing split screen together at the same place. The screen peek factor causes large amounts of rage.

3) Goldeneye, same as above

4) mario kart, snes or n64 version

5) smash brothers, similar to fusion frenzy, but for me at least, much much much more rage was produced from FF.

The screen peek factor causes large amounts of rage

We used to scream screen peek at each other during Halo tourneys, halo doesn't compare to cod or goldeneye but the principle is the same.

so much rage when people would peek

[Ahldagor]

goldeneye made me miss many a morning hours in elementary school.

[Kagatob]

screen peak became second nature to me playing Goldeneye, I taught myself to just stare at the center of the screen and perform all actions aside from sniping from my peripherals.

I couldn't not screen peak if I tried.

YOU CAN'T PICK ODDJOB, HE'S TOO SMALL.

Greatest multiplayer in that game was, Pistols in the Basment, License to Kill (One shot kill)

Hah we must have grown up in the same era, I actually remember playing Pong as a child.

I remember my commodore 63 - 30+ games per floppy, 100's of floppy's - I didn't own a home console system til Super Nintendo was on it's way out and I bought it dirt cheap to play FF games. My buddies had the Colecovision - Smurfs FTW!

I'd have to say that the PSX would be up there as one of favorites though - so many hours spent with roommates and friends over playing Tekken, Soulblade and Toshinden, the Resident Evil games, Twisted Metal, the FF series and so much more. I still have a PSX emulator on my PC and recently downloaded one on to my Nexus 7.

I remember my commodore 63 - 30+ games per floppy, 100's of floppy'sI'm with you guys. Atari 2600 for many years... then a C64 (C128 in C64 mode when the first burnt out). Sooooooo many floppies.... I still have that Commodore stuff stored away in my basement and still considering converting some of the programs/games I wrote to be used by an emulator. Think I have my first modem (300 baud) around too.
