Day 24: Favorite classic game.

We need to define “classic.”  What do you consider to be a classic game?  How far back do we go in order to classify a game as classic?  If the PlayStation era is considered classic, then my favorite classic is my favorite game:

but if we’re going back further then my favorite classic is my first favorite game/obsession:

I have a thing for numbers…

I can’t go back much further than that, because no older game sticks out enough for me to say it’s my favorite, but I think I’ve talked about SMB2 before, and lord knows I do nothing but talk about FFVII.

What’s your favorite classic game?

Day 13: A game you’ve played more than five times.

For the Final Fantasies, Final Fantasy IV and Final Fantasy VI.  I’ve only actually attempted to play through FFVII twice, ironic as that is.  I’ve seen the ending numerous times, but each time I tried to play myself I got stuck.  Then I became embroiled in the symbolism and theory behind the game, and oddly enough, I spent time I could’ve been playing it again doing that hehe.  Now I’m quite excited to get to it, because I’m armed with far more knowledge than I had during my initial (partial) playthroughs, so I can imagine I’ll find more VII revelations when I do.

I’ve played Super Mario World more times than I can count, The Adventures of Lolo 3, SMB3, and a slew of games on older systems.  I’m going to assume this questions means “beaten” more than five times, though that really doesn’t count for Coleco/Atari games as they typically had no “end.”

However you’d like to define it, what game have you played more than five times?

Day 11: Gaming system of choice.

I’ve been a fan of the Big N my entire life, and I always will be, but Final Fantasy VII turned me into a Sony girl.  The PlayStation has been my main gaming system for years; however, I’m an equal opportunity gamer, and I want to see what I missed out on in my youth, so I’ve been looking into consoles like Sega Master System and Genesis.

Did I answer the question?  I guess I didn’t.  In a pinch, I guess I’d probably go with the PlayStation, because I can play pretty much all of my favorite games on those systems.

What’s your console of choice?
