Earthbound!
So many to pick… But I will choose only a few…
Age of Empires 2
Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri
Heroes of Might and Magic III
Civilization
Doom 2
Hard to pick one but if I had to I’d go with Final Fantasy VII since it was the game that got me into RPGs, and I got some good memories of watching my brother play it when we were kids.
I remember beating Final Fantasy VII and just staring at my TV in shock. Like, mouth hanging open, mind blown.
What’s crazy is for the life of me, I can’t even remember the basic gist of the ending of the game today. I just remember how it made me feel.
Earthbound and Chronotrigger are the two games with the most memories for me.
U. N. Squadron and Super Punch-out! We’re the two I played through the most - just over and over again. So much fun.
Mechwarrior 2. Controlling a heavy mech was 90s af.
And I can still hear the startup sequence in my head. Reactor online Sensors online Weapons online. All systems nominal.
Fallout. I’m yet to play the second part and people say it’s even better. You just don’t see such game design anymore, I can’t say modern or old one is better, both have their advantages but playing Fallout was totally worth it
If you loved it, you must play 2! It’s so good.
Donkey Kong Country 2
Total Annihilation… couldn’t get enough of it. Even playing strategy games today I desperately miss the elaborate control and mechanics of TA.
Pretty sure you can get a modern copy of TA. Either on steam or gog.
And if you like the general style but want to broaden your horizons a bit, Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance and Planetary Annihilation: Titans are both good options!
Never played that, but how about Supreme Commander? That game still beats out any other RTS imo
Unpopular opinion: Total Annihilation > Star Craft

I liked the Marathon series for Mac and the Twisted Metal series for PS.
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
Top is hard. Probably OOT.
Top five would be OOT, Doom, Sonic 2, crash bandicoot, and half-life.
Way too many good ones to pick from haha.
Tekken 3. Late 90s but I spent HUNDREDS of hours playing it.

I have fond memories of friends coming over, all huddled together in front of my 15" monitor to figure out our way through Riven. Those eureka moments where we were like “wow! These are symbols for a base 5 number system!”

I remember being amazed at the seemingly super fluid animation of the character running. And those falling sequences…

Rogue Squadron!
Gotta get that RAM expansion for the 64!
I still play Civilization 1 from time to time.
And with friends, Worms 2 is a banger, and so is the cave flyer Wings
Worms was so much fun
Still is 😊
