You know, it's really awesome to hear someone else feel the same way.. when i explain to people that some of the best times of my life were playing online video games i just get a 1000 yard stare and a confused 'what?' - But honestly, im nostalgic for those years.. it was the last time i was truly happy and nothing else mattered, i guess it was the last great luxury of been young.. this was all before drugs, sex, and money.. which makes life great but usually not without some pain.

I haven't had a proper gaming rig for a couple of years now.. a lot of upheavels and changes in life has forced me into a different lifestyle, but this thread is making me want to go back too it.

As for favorite games:

Half Life (And all it's mods/side-stories - Opposing Force, Blue Shift, Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, Team Fortress)

Assassin's Creed Black Flag

I feel like they need to make an entire series just dedicated to the Black Flag playing style.

Assassin's Creed has always been a mediocre series, to me.... but Black Flag is probably one of my favorite games ever, and it's definitely my favorite pirate game. They need to run with that shit.
 
Agreed. I probably like the whole AC franchise a little better than you since I've really enjoyed a couple of them, but Black Flag is in a league of its own.
 
No I wasn't

It's actually up again , but I don't have a computer to playboy

I lived for that game during highschool from the beta for about 3 years
 
I searched for the old Nintendo game Adventure Island and found this video.
