Which game triggers nostalgia for you?

[c4xmaniac]

Halo 3 and MW2. The closest you can get to that golden age today is TF2, not surprisingly it came out around the same time.

Halo: CE, the original. Back in 2002-2003 I was like 4-5 years old and I always saw my brother playing it so one day I asked him if I could play it, and he let me. Started a decade-long love for the game even after Halo 2 and Halo 3 came out. The soundtrack, the gameplay, the fact that it was made in like 9 fucking months, all of it just comes together for a massively nostalgic game for me. Also shit like Age of Empires 2, Command and Conquer Zero Hour, Time Splitters 2, and more. Another for me would be the first Dead Space game, I was 10 or so when it was being teased in the gameinformer magazines and it gave me nightmares from the pics of the necromorphs, I never got around to playing it until I was 12-13 but that was back when you could burn discs onto your XBOX so I always had KoRn blasting over the game sound lol. Also went out of my way to play Fallout 3 whenever I could, because my dad wouldn't let me get it, so I'd have to go over to my friends house and I would play it until like 4 in the morning. Same with NV, I was 'old enough' to play it according to my parents so I got it the day it came out and was mega hyped every time a DLC was released.

Also played the absolute shit out of Oblivion and Morrowind because it was always around the house growing up since my family were D&D and RPG fanatics, I was obsessed with the Daedric set and literally googled on our old ass internet and went to a poorly made website to find out how to get it, so I grinded to level 20 and would constantly farm Rockmilk cave to get it. Good times.

As for portable consoles, I'd play Pokemon Red, Blue and Silver versions, got two cartridges of the Emerald version one year and one of them was hacked so I played the shit out of that and had all three legendary pokemon which you weren't supposed to get apparently lol. Also played the fuck out of Super Mario World pretty much incessantly, that game invokes such a deep, abyssal sense of nostalgia for me for some reason. Long nights of sitting under the covers playing it when I was supposed to be asleep.

A few final others, I also grew up on Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, as well as Mario Kart and Goldeneye and I always remember having my friends across the street come over and play with me and we'd always fight over the yellow N64 controller which we insisted was the 'golden' controller.

The Lion King.

The games that give the most incredible nostalgia are CS 1.5 and Super Mario, I probably I'm too old, but from time to time, I still play these games and have so many emotions going on. Besides these games, I still play CS: GO with my friends since it is easier to find the live servers and have fun in the other part is that in CS: GO you can earn real money if you sell csgo skins for paypal at some online sites like skincashier, or you can sell the skins directly on the steam market to get new releases without paying the real money.
