Favorite Retro Video Games

[Leidolfr]

So, I've been thinking about this lately, as I just got a Game Gear last week, that, some of my favorite games were on NES, SNES, and Sega, and as I get older, they get obscurer,and people don't know them at all. So, consider this a Cryogenic Chamber for all your Retro video games, this will preserve them, as you remember them, in your own words.

I had alot of games I loved, that people hadn't heard of when they came out [ Just an example, the Aquatic Games for Sega Genesis ] so, they're slipping in time and soon will be no more.

So, get Posting, Retro Gaming, well, for the sake of newgrounds, lets say it starts at the Magnavox Odyssey [ first gaming system ] and ends with, oh say, fuck it, lets go as recent as PS1 and N64, even though, they're not really retro. I have faith you people will make the right choice anyways

if ya really awesome, Include pics, tell a short synopsis of the game, and the story, and you know, what ya like about it, where when ya got it, how much it was back in the day, and of course, if ya beat it or not, as alot of us were little kids and some games were you know, just too much for us back then [ don't you love beating old games that seemed so hard before? ] anyways, here's my first Pick

# 1:
- Title: "Jungle Strike"
- Platform: Sega Genesis
- Year: uhh...early 90's..
- Story:
You Pilot a Helicopter, for the government,and you fight terrorists, simple enough. the first levelyou start in D.C, and of course, yhou can blow up the white house, but, then you fail. Anyways, its almost like an old GTA, one mission is there are marked vans roaming around, and you have to destroy them before they get to the whitehouse, and things like that

- Beat it? No, Each level had like 10 missions, and took like a half hour-hour to beat, and you couldnt save, so I either died or stopped playing, but I got pretty far

ok newgrounds, shock me
