Intellivision. I was the fucking man in baseball. Good luck getting the ball out of the infield. My reflexes were crazy good. I used to walk the bases loaded on purpose just so I could turn a triple play against my brother. And he knew what I was doing too.

Walk. Walk. Walk. Triple play. Fist fight.

Haha. Ah, memories.

Sorry. Misread title. That wasn't a PC game. I didn't play PC games. We had 1 computer growing up and mom said it was for business and we weren't allowed on it.

But then the internet came and my brother and I found porn. The computer got a nasty virus shortly after that and quit working.

I would play a city building game called Caesar II for hours. I didnt even like those types of games then, but that one got me hooked like crack.

Right on, I never played Grim Fandango, but the guy who made it (Tim Schafer) made one of my all-time favourites that I meant to put in the first post as well, so thanks for reminding me. He's also still making awesome games with his company Double Fine Productions that much different than most games out there these days and are absolutely hilarious and very inventive (The Cave, Broken Age).

Full Throttle

This game was so bad ass and ahead of it's time when it came out. One of the most enjoyable video game experiences I've ever had by far.

Absolutely man. Games like that, Age of Empire, Civilization, even Warcraft were addictive as any drug and took up many valuable hours of my childhood.
