The one i played the most was probably super mario world

My favorite snes game

But ocarina of time was great too.

For pc id say, red alert or diablo.

Homeworld and Half Life for me: both were just awesome. I spent a very long time in both.

I don't really know what to pick so I'm going to go with something kind of obscure, "The Adventures of Bouapha: Spooky Castle". The gameplay is a little hard to explain but it kind of plays like Zelda but you can pickup upgrades for your main weapon that allows it to be thrown in many directions and it has sub-weapons that can either be found or dropped by enemies and they have limited ammo.

I actually forgot this game existed until itch recommended me "Hamsandwich", which is a free and open-source collection of updated versions of a bunch of old Hamumu Software games. There are mods available for specific games and it's available for Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android and any other OS/device that can play the online version.

In more or less this order:

Fifa 99

Duke Nukem 3D Doom

Rise Of The Triad

Test Drive 5

Simcity

Hardball 3

Madden 98

Starcraft

Age Of Empires 2

Need For Speed 2

Technically 2000, but Sacrifice. It's still one of the most unique games I've ever played, and is my top wish for a remake/remaster.

It's a hybrid action RPG and RTS, which isn't completely unheard of, but even in its niche genre it's unlike anything else. You play a wizard with a range of both spells and summonable units, which can be ordered around to a limited degree, or more commonly used as a personal escort. Both the units and your own spells are very creative, and the higher level ones can be ridiculously powerful. In a glorious early celebration of terrain deformation, many of the high level spells will create volcanoes, mountains, craters, or even gaping voids in the already surreal landscapes. The story mode is also very weird and funny, with some top level voice actors.

Can't decide between at least:

Homeworld

Frontier: Elite II

Warcraft II

Burden of the Crown

X-Wing, TIE Fighter, X-Wing vs TIE Fighter, X-Wing Alliance

It's between Final Fantasy Tactics and Suikoden II. I think it goes to the latter.

The 90s were peak gaming for me - a lot a creative things were going on, new genres being explored. And we were spoilt for choice with all the blatant piracy.

But if I had to choose one game that really blew me away, that would be Thief.

Super Mario 64

I've always been a Nintendo fan, and their first- and second-party catalog from the 90s is phenomenal:

• Zelda OoT / MM
• Goldeneye / Perfect Dark
• Super Mario Bros 64
• Mario Parties
• Banjo Kazooie / Tooie
• Pokémon Red / Blue / Yellow
• Pokémon Stadium

Outside of Nintendo, the standout titles for me are:

• Crash Bandicoot
• Spyro
• Metal Gear Solid
• FF VII & VIII

Flashback. There's something cinematographic in that old Delphine gem.

MGS 1 for obvious reasons.

Blitz and NBA street 1&2 were definitely some faves.

Jet Moto series.

Jet grind radio had so many hours sunk into it.

Resident evil 1-2 was absolutely terrified of these games but couldn’t stop playing and quickly became a favorite of me and my dad.

Subspace - Meet people from all over the world, and then kill them.

One of the first online multiplayer games. It has a very long skill curve, and a ton of variety in game types.

It's still alive in Steam as Continuum!

Shattered Galaxy, it marketed itself as an mmorpgrts. The depth of gameplay was fantastic. While the graphics look a little dated, I would still play it if there was any server population left.
