    Greatest Old-School Video Game Of All Time

    I think anything pre-XBox and PS2 qualifies. Let me start it out.

    Outrun was my all time favorite at the Arcades.

    Some of my other favs were.....

    Arkanoid
    Pitfall
    Centipede
    Dragon's Lair
    Track & Field
    Super Mario Bros
    Pacman
    Joust
    Pole Position
    Qbert
    Space Invaders
    Dig Dug
    Frogger
    Donkey Kong

    I still have all these games along with atari stashed away in a box in my basement. I should pull them out sometime and relive some of my youth.

    How about the Hockey game where you had a fat slow dude, a couple of medium size dudes and the skinny fast dude. Anyone remember the name of that one?

    Ha Ha....that's the one rjt. What was the name of that one?

    Ice Hockey. Best hockey game ever. You could choose any combination of fat/slow, medium and skinny/fast dudes.

    Anyone ever actually beat Tyson in Punch Out? I always got my ass kicked. Could knock him down once or twice, but never won.

    Tecmo Bowl was awesome. Me and my brothers would have all night and day Tecmo Bowl marathons.

    I never watched hockey growing up in Texas but I loved the NES hockey game. So much fun!

    So pick a ton of games. Who gives a fuk? It's bringing back great memories for everyone. Don't be a cok. If there are some clear winners, I'll attach a poll and you can vote. How bout that?

    I see Ice Hockey, Punch Out, Contra, and Tecmo Bowl as clear front runners. Let's post some more game footage. Zelda is certainly, without a doubt one of the best. Nice call Matty.

    Super Mario 3 for sure. The whole 1, 2, 3 series is a blast but 3 is the best. I made a little loot in college taking challenges from people for all sorts of feats in these three games. Beat all 3 once with warps and cartridge change over in under 43 minutes.
