Maybe COD Black Ops. Or Black Ops 2 zombies. I used to be fantastic, always top of the leaderboard. Also spent what feels like years on The Sims 2. And I am not ashamed to say I absolutely loved Fortnite. All the Tomb Raider games. I was absolutely besotted with GTA online and used to have so much fun, have some proper good memories with online friends and super late nights. I don't have the hours anymore to play and I miss it so much. I just can't get back into it like I used to.

Damn. Far too many to pick just one.

PSOne era probably my most formative. Final Fantasy, Tekken, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Crash Bandicoot, Metal Gear Solid.

It began with the SEGA Master System (16 bit) and Mega Drive (32 bit), though. Sonic the fucking Hedgehog, bay-beeeee!

The lobbies to black ops opened back up last month with over 100,000 players online, I felt 14 again and got to forget about the stress of adult life for a bit when life was all about gaming, definitely recommend finding the time for nostalgia

Would hate to pick one don’t think I could

Doom (the original pc version) is probably game I’ve returned to and played through again more than any

Wonderboy 3 the dragons trap - originally for the master system I remember playing it with my dad as a kid then the remake for modern consoles was brilliant

The remake of resident evil 1 - still the best resident evil

Red dead 1 and 2

GTA vice city

Probably others I’ve since forgotten

Aye, i remember Sim Cities would struggle after a while. Cities Skylines does benefit from having a more powerful system as do other sims like Anno, especially if running at 4k.

I fell in love with Horizon Zero Dawn during covid when it finally came to PC on Steam, i can't wait for Forbidden West to come to PC in the next year or two. The who world was amazingly and lovingly crafted but was absolutely blown away by the story

I have a few…

Transport Tycoon - Got the original in 1994 and have played variations of it since then. Never got bored of it.

Fallout 3 / New Vegas / 4 - All three of these games have absorbed hours of my life and are worth every second. I still play all three of them.

Elite Dangerous - Achieved Elite status in trade and exploration. Still not bored of it. Still enjoy playing it.

Red Dead Redemption 2 - Probably the best all-round game I’ve ever played. Visuals, storyline, music, gameplay are all top notch. I can play this over again and again.

Fifa- played hours in each one since I was a kid. First one I think I had was fifa 04 but didn’t play too much of it then. Started kicking in around fifa 06 where it was nearly every day

Red dead series- love the story line and with the new one just going round doing random stuff.

Skyrim- always loved playing it and keep doing new play throughs and finding new stuff

I’d have to say one of those 3

Ark has over 4500 hours sunk in to it by Fumble somehow! Hogwarts Legacy is wonderful, but then I'm a huge HP fan so getting to actually visit the universe (not the studio tour or theme park) in my own home is great! It does get repetitive and does need DLC, desperately.

I love it though! Definitely worth a play through at least xx

"Probably Diablo 2. I played the hell (ahem) out of that game for over a decade."

Diablo 2 was brilliant. For it's time Diablo 1 was also excellent.

Some personal favs too

Dark Souls

The Witcher 3

Skyrim

Sea of Thieves

"I've just started on COD again and there's a 128gb update...don't know what I'm going to do for the next 2 hours while it updates

...but I know I'll be playing it for the next 6 hrs

Two hours?! Mine takes anything up to 16!"

2 hours 37 minutes it took....I've got a fast download and upload speed so that's a bonus

"Ark Survival Evolved, Assassins Creed Black Flag/Valhalla, Minecraft, Fortnite and last but not least - Hogwarts Legacy.

Gamer family.

Ark has always been one I've considered. How is hogwarts?

Ark has over 4500 hours sunk in to it by Fumble somehow! Hogwarts Legacy is wonderful, but then I'm a huge HP fan so getting to actually visit the universe (not the studio tour or theme park) in my own home is great! It does get repetitive and does need DLC, desperately.

I love it though! Definitely worth a play through at least xx

D x"

4500 hours?! Wow!!

"Many hours lost just trying to load the damn games.on tape. Last century. Manic miner took about 20 minutes to load. Probably!

But later on I loved those cute little lemmings recently I tried table tennis on vr. Impressive.

Omg I LOVED lemmings on the game gear

Was my fave game at that time"

They were so cute. I hated seeing them explode etc.

There are a lot of forgotten favourites listed here. Gone are the days of Spy Hunter, Mr Do and Frogger, but they ride high in the memories of us old enough to remember pumping two shilling coins into the cabinets even if they have been far overshadowed as the tech improved.

I have over 8k hours on Ark:SE so it must be my favourite game, but I am a long term lover of the Civilization games and I have bought GTA: Vice City on several platforms.

Tetris. I've definitely put more time into that than any other game. I'm a fucking Jedi at it.

Super Mario World. Best 2d platforming game ever.

Fallout 4. Not everyones cup of tea but I loved it and put many hours into it.

Red Dead Redemption 2. That game was so good I haven't really enjoyed a game since.

Breath of the Wild. Epic game. Love it.

Ghost of Tsushima for me. The game is just so visually stunning and with a great story. If you haven’t played it then do.

My only advisory is that the ending will hit you hard.
