    Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver!! That entire series is amazing!

    Managed to embed the theme music into my Volkihar build.

    There is rumour of a complete 'reset' of the series coming with modern graphics!

    I said yesterday that MGS 2 was possibly the most eagerly awaited game ever Guilherme! I remember watching the pre release trailer with my jaw on the ground. Listen to this with your eyes closed!!

    Lol, well its time for a change, instead of the usual people feeling old around really young people, its always the opposite when it comes to older video games.

    The kind of games I used to play that are kind of nostalgic are these:

    Obi-Wan (Xbox, I actually re-bought this game after I got an Xbox from a friend that didn't use it, it was damn hard surprisingly and I don't get how I beat the game as a kid)

    Halo: Combat Evolved (Xbox)

    Blinx: The Time Sweeper (AKA Cat thing that vacuums up wierd trash and blobs if I remember correctly, also with some sort of element of time in there, Xbox)

    Halo 2 (After I beat the campaign once, I hated this game, Xbox)

    Stronghold: Crusader (PC, I still have this game, it's really good, which is surprising since it was just a random pick from a best buy)

    Oblivion (Xbox 360, )

    The many different Online games of Miniclip.com (The Internet..., Well, this isn't a nostalgic one at all really lol, just having a hard time remembering some others.)

    Spiderman (Xbox, I liked this game alot when I was younger. Frankly I got bored of it rather fast when I got it again last year, or maybe it was 2 years ago almost.)

    Munch's Oddysee (Xbox, I played this game alot and I really liked it. I got it again and played it, the sound doesn't really work and I got stuck on one of the first real levels...)

    Well, those are all the main ones pretty much. Can't think of the others that I'm sure there are.

    I do remember a sort of robot game I used to play that I can't remember the name and was always trying to find, we usually just rented it. (Nevermind, I just went through the list of Original Xbox games and found the game within 60 seconds  Battle Engine Aquila is what it's called)

    That's it for now until I remember some more.

    Oblivion

    Age of Empires

    NFS Underground

    Fifa street 1 *never liked the others*

    Morrowind

    Alien vs predator *old version*

    C&C Generals, red alert and Renegade

    Sins of a Solar Empire

    Medieval TW

    Rome TW *still play this ALOT though*

    Jaws *don't know why, but i played this an ungodly amount on the original xbox*

    And theres one game i cant remember, i tried finding it again, because it was awesome, but i only managed to remember a few things  such as:

    I think you play as either Rome, Greece or Egypt. The nice thing about it was that the game is normally played by commanding troops from above. But on some levels you got to play as one person, i remember fighting the Romans as Cleopatra, with a bow and arrows, had to stop a siege or something, and with another had to sink 100 ships, as well as i think it was with Alexander, where i got captured and had to fight in an arena.

    I know its vague, but if someone reconizes it, gimme a shout :P

    The original final fantasy (NES) - I was experiencing EPIC battles the first time I played it and was literally running around my house telling everyone I just performed 999 Hit points of damage to any family member who would listen.

    The original Ninja Gaiden (NES) - now that was a HARD game. You kids with the Hard settings don't know what hard is (shakes cane at the lawn)

    1943 (Arcade) - really loved that game

    Space Harrier (Sega Genesis/Arcade) - a "3D" flying shooter in over the shoulder perspective. love love love

    Legend of Zelda (NES) - enough said

    Super Mario World (SNES)

    Tie-Fighter (DOS) - the DOS version was the best because you could use the mouse to fine tune your flight path on top of the keyboard directionals. I had GOD reflexes in that game. Sheds tears. The later incarnations just messed up the controls for me.
