@Octane Wow, we have a lot in common right there. I could have made some of the choices you did right there. Do I know you or something?

@Kidfried I had to chuckle when I saw that your first game was a bootleg Mario game. My memory is vague, but the earliest video game I can remember is playing Mario on PC, which I presume had to be pirated in some form. My parents got their first PC, a Windows 95, it was sat in the attic, and on it was a Mario game. I played it a lot, that's all I remember. Although I remember dying a lot too. I don't think I ever got far into it.

But looking at your list; Super Mario World, Pikmin, Gravity Rush, Journey, the Team ICO games, there's a lot I agree with!

I remember you had MGSV in your top 5 best PS4 games, and seeing how MGS3 is your favourite game of all time, I have to try those games out some time. The MSGV Definitive Edition is dirt cheap these days, I'll add it to my list of games to play this year!

@Octane Perhaps it's this one?

(And you should definitively start at MGS1 or MGS3 to get a real feeling for the series.)

@Kidfried I'm not entirely sure, but it looks familiar! Especially those waterfalls, I remember them, but I can't think of any other Mario game that had waterfalls like that.

I suppose I could find a copy of MGS1. There's a remake on the GameCube, right?

@kyleforrester87 I don't own a PS1. And I can't remember any of my friends with a PS1 owned MGS1. Had I been aware of its existence, I could've played it on PC I guess, since I played a lot of PC in the 90s and early 00s.

Ok guys let's curb the emulation talk as it's not allowed here I am afraid.

Thanks for understanding

I thank you in not quoting rules at me whenever you disagree with a rule. You might be a mod over at NL but it cares no weight here. I have discussed with Sammy and discussion of hacking, emulation, modding of any sort is not allowed here. It's one of the few rules that we differ from NL. Thank you for understanding

1 – Very first video game
Super Mario World. Thanks dad!

2 – Your favorite character.
Nathan Drake, Zack Fair, Sora. Don't make me choose!

3 – A game that is underrated.
Disgaea 5. Disgaea in general, but I think 5 sold really badly as it launched exclusively on PS4 early in it's lifecycle, before going to Switch.

4 – Your guilty pleasure game.
Just Dance.

5 – Game character you feel you are most like (or wish you were).
Wish I were...don't know. Adol Christin (Ys), may be?

6 – Most annoying character.
Dr. Quack- Yooka Laylee.

7 – Favorite game couple.
Sora and Kairi

8 – Best soundtrack.
Persona 5.

PlayStation 4, duh!

12 – A game everyone should play.

Wolfenstein The New Order. I'm German so I can really appreciate the voice acting. It's not generic German, but they had a really good mixture of different dialects and accents in that game. I really appreciate the little nuances in that game.

Sonic Adventure 2 Battle...Super Sonic & Super Shadow born from the 7 Chaos Emeralds to take on The Finalhazard: The Ultimate Lifeform.

@Tasuki Then what's the point of the community rules if they don't reflect the rules on PushSquare? I'm not even trying to discuss the fact that you deleted my comments. I'm just wondering. A general question. In the off-topic chit chat thread.

@Fight_Teza_Fight OK that Kingdom Hearts picture is awesome, i'm nicking that if you don't mind

"I pity you. You just don't get it at all...there's not a thing I don't cherish!"

Fight_Teza_Fight

@FullbringIchigo Of course not. Enjoy ! I've been using it for almost a year now & I haven't gotten bored of it yet.

Gremio108

1 – Very first video game
Sonic 2. It came bundled with the Mega Drive that I got for Christmas, must have been 1992 or 1993.

2 – Your favorite character.
Whoever wins the Push Square tournament. They will have earned my love and respect.

3 – A game that is underrated.
Time Slip, it was one of those Net Yaroze games back on the PS1 that used to get bundled onto the demo discs. It involved a lot of snails.

4 – Your guilty pleasure game.
Singstar, without a doubt. I hardly even feel guilty about it, in fact I'm considering hiring a vocal coach in the run-up to the next family gathering.

5 – Game character you feel you are most like (or wish you were).
Both Suikoden characters. Aspire to Gremio, but am more like Viktor.

6 – Most annoying character.
Moira from Fallout 3, my god, never has an NPC got me killed so many times. But I still love her.

7 – Favorite game couple.
Abigail and John Marston.

8 – Best soundtrack.
Grand Theft Auto 3.

9 – Saddest game scene.
The ending I got on Silent Hill 2 was pretty bleak. I wasn't great at the game though, so it may not have been the 'proper' ending. Hell, for all I know the canonical ending could involve lots of laughter, a musical number and a break-dancing Pyramid Head.

10 – Best gameplay.
Micro Machines 2.

11 – Gaming system of choice.
This is a strangely-worded question. Does it mean ever? Or at the moment? Currently, I tend to play all my games on PS4, but those old Mega Drive cartridges are a bugger to get in the disc tray.

12 – A game everyone should play.
We Love Katamari.

13 – A game you’ve played more than five times.
Sonics 1-& Knuckles, Suikoden 1 & 2, Streets of Rage II. These are the only ones I can think of.

14 – Current (or most recent) gaming wallpaper.
A picture of my man-crush Nathan Drake. He is standing with his arms folded on top of a watchtower, which thrusts into a beautiful blue sky. It is worryingly phallic.

15 – Post a screenshot from the game you’re playing right now.
I'm nowhere near my PS4 so no screenshot, but I am currently playing GTA V again, to my shame. I AM PART OF THE PROBLEM

16 – Game with the best cut scenes.
The Last Of Us.

17 – Favorite antagonist.
Until Mania came along, I was starting to seriously sympathise with Dr Robotnik.

18 – Favorite protagonist.
Ryo Hazuki. Although this is mainly because in my version of Shenmue, he did nothing except go to the arcade and play Space Harrier all day before spending his wages on toy dispensers.

19 – Picture of a game setting you wish you lived in.
See above for my dream lifestyle.

20 – Favorite genre.
Good question. I don't know. At the risk of sounding like one of those people who reply the same way when you ask them what their favourite type of music is... "I like everything".

21 – Game with the best story.
The Last Of Us (again).

22 – A game sequel which disappointed you.
Borderlands The Pre-Sequel, but it did pick up towards the end.

23 – Game you think had the best graphics or art style.
I'm a big fan of Dark Souls' whole vibe. And Bloodborne too.

24 – Favorite classic game.
Super Mario World.

25 – A game you plan on playing.
Monster Hunter is top of the list at the moment.

26 – Best voice acting.
Stephen Merchant as Wheatley in Portal 2, an absolute tour-de-force, as they say in Tinseltown.

27 – Most epic scene ever.
Parappa rapping his way to the front of the queue for the toilet. Alas, as I discovered on that fateful away trip to Millwall in '05, it doesn't work in real life.

28 – Favorite game developer.
Once upon a time I would have said Konami, back when they were churning out absolute corkers like MGS 1, Symphony of the Night, Suikoden and Vandal Hearts at a rate of about one-a-minute on the PS1. That feels like a long time ago now though, so let's say Naughty Dog. Of course in 20 years they'll probably be reduced to peddling erotic pachinko machines featuring Nathan Drake in nothing more than a studded g-string. Actually...

29 – A game you thought you wouldn’t like, but ended up loving.
Blitzball, on Final Fantasy X. At first me and my mate thought 'what is this?', ten minutes later we were hooked.

30 – Your Favorite Game of all time
I was about to say Suikoden II but then a little voice in my head said "NiGHTS" so let's go with that.

Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.

@Kidfried Thanks - I seriously love the Rapture soundtrack. I was caught abroad last year for work and got poorly and I just listened to it in the background as I tried to chill out and get better.

I liked your choice for best opening - coming into Rapture in Bioshock is just epic!
