    What is your greatest Video Game Memory?

    Whether it be that time you got 99 men on Super Mario Brothers; actually playing a Vectrex; burning your first Utopia Load Disk; or the first time you played Halo.

    I am making a collection of best video game memories and moments and would love the input of fellow GFY'rs who I know are usually witty and intelligent (! WARNING: Ass Kissing Attempt !)

    My personal favorite memory....MASTERING THE OLD ORANGE COLORED STRIP POKER GAME ON ATARI 800.

                      Finally figuring out the last portion of the Indiana Jones III adventure game. Leap from the lions head, or something like that

                          Humm, that is funny because I was amazed the first tome I played Pac Man. I thought is was such a cool game.
                          the truth is I was so clueless.

                          I sometimes am asked to sit in and Gran Tor auto race (PS2) with my daughter.

                              how did it explode?

                              remember turning up the brightness to cheat in duck hunt?

                              Sonic was badass....especially the speed burst

                                  Although many true diehard video game enthusiasts might not consider this to be a true video game.

                                                  I remember playing Dragon's Lair when it first came out. The graphics were way beyond anything else available at that time.

                                                      When I had my nintendo and the original Mario. I was in a level which turtles walk down these stairs and if you jump on it and stay on it for countless minutes you get a crazy amount of lives, and I actually did it. It was a joyous moment in my young life.

                                                          Playing "Hunt for Red October" on my Commodore 64 for 20 hours straight to beat it.

                                                          I still think that was one of the best video games ever made.

                                                              I don't know I just think it was one of the best RPG's ever released. If you dont have it I suggest you grab the ZSNES emulator and the chrono trigger rom.

Its fucking HUGE and would allow you to travel to places that noone would ever go. You could stay in there for hours/days/weeks and the level would never reset. Just keep going and going and going.... It was crazy...

I was just a little kid, but I will never forget hooking it up and playing my first video game at home. It was Space Invaders. That was pure bliss.

                                                                                                              A close second would be the first time I played a MUD against other real people on the Downtown BBS.

                                                                                                              Another very memorable moment was my first online Quake deathmatch.

Myself, I didn't have that kind of patience

                                                                                                                                                                                              but i hear microsod is coming out with a newer version of it... just not as cool.. i think it's called freelancer, should be out soon.

                                                                                                                                                                                              but a mouse-controlled space sim? eew.

Prior to the game in the afternoon, i gave him some weed to smoke up just before the game. Then when we got ready we smoked up on our one and played. It was too funny.
