ok, im not actually a "gamer"... hand-eye coordination just isnt my thing... But there are several games that I enjoyed as a kid and teenager anyhow.. very roughly chronologically...
1. Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood (on our old Amiga, as a very little kid)
1. Mario Bros. (sadly, I am old enough to have spent a lot of time playing the oringinal, on an original Nintendo)
2. Defender of the Crown (on the Amiga again)
3. Sonic 2, the Game gear editon
4. Gex (whoo hoo, my brother got a PS1 and we felt very technologically advanced)
5. Wild Arms (Loved this)
6. Sim City (again, the Original)
7. Age of Empires
8. The Sims (because who doesnt like to play God)
9. Harvest Moon (on PS1.. possibly the most preposterous game ever, but somehow very satisfying)
10. The Sims 2...(my current addiction)

AGain with the lack of order, as it would make this even harder.
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Jedi Knight
Ocarina of time
Goldeneye
Perfect Dark
Super Smash Brothers
Operation Flashpoint
Half life
Max payne
Rollercoaster Tycoon
Actually they basically did come to mind in order of importance. I kept it to stuff before I was 16, seems about right for "growing up."

these are in no order.
7.Spyro Gateway to Glimmer
Don't be ashamed! Here's why:
1. Spyro: Year of the Dragon.
2. Spyro: Gateway to Glimmer
3. Pokemon Crystal
4. Spyro 1
I was somewhat of a Spyro fan. Why did I not pick up Final Fantasy sooner? Now, when I was even younger, these were what I played.
5. Sims: along with Holiday, Hot Date and Unleashed.
6. Lego Island I
7. The Animals of Farthing Wood
8. Muppet Treasure Island (3 disks
)
9. Catz 2, 3, 4 and 5.
10. Well...erm...*thinks* It's hard to place a final one since no other game comes to mind as important when I was a kid. Maybe 102 Dalmatians, since I played it on both PS1 and then GBC. >_<
