Given that I haven't played any vidio games for over a year now, I think my
favorite is The Secret of Mana (SuperNintendo).  *shrug*

Space Invaders on the Atari 2600.  Doesn't get any better than that.

my faves: Phantasy Star II, III, & IV, Gargoyles, Might & Magic, Warlock.
(Genesis)
NEC: D&D Order of the Griffon, Valis Series, Shapeshifter...
I like shooters, RPG's, action/adventure, strategy/simulation. Never much
cared for any of the sports games (except for the Mutant League series).
I don't have a CD-ROM in my 'puter yet, so I can't play all the new games :(
2600 system, definately a classic in my book, I still play it. 
(Don't get me started on Nintendo, I hate Nintendo, ALL of them: 8, 16, 64)

I spent about two years being totally hooked on Donkey Kong back in the
80's.

Oh NO the Atari 2600.....That was back in the days when just about the only
computer sound effect was "BLIP"

I think the last game I played on a dedicated video game machine was "pong".

I can remember yearss ago when my cousin got the very first video game,
Pong!  It was slow and black and white but it was cool.  I think he
still has his pong machine somewhere, doubtless it started
gathering dust when the first Atari came out.

I never liked video games.  That's probably why I'm not a better 
programmer.  Give me an old-fashioned pinball game, any day.

The neat thing about pong is that people actually bother to put it onto their
TI-85's.  Some one downloaded a version of tetris off the internet and put
that on a TI-85, too.  My comp teacher said that the first versions of Pac-Man
were written in Basic.  To think that they would use basic for something...

Super Marios Bros., the game that came free with Nintendo.  *Great* game, with
good play action, interesting little sub-plots, etc.  I played it for an hour
or two every morning until, after 3-4 months, I could get all the way thru.

Re: #16- I've seen games programmed into even TI-81's, my roomie came up with
a really neat blackjack program. Hey! I like Basic. (and still use it) :)

Actually, I generally prefer pinball too.

I'm a pinball fan from waaaayyy back. They're spoiling all the
new pinball machines by putting computers in 'em, though.

I don't do arcade games much anymore but was something of an
addict in the early to mid 1980's. Favorites were Ms. Pacman,
Crazy Climber, Elevator Action, Dig Dug, Pole Position, and
Spy Hunter.

As to PC games, I've become addicted to a few but eventually
recovered. :)  Examples include the old "text adventures"
(Colossal Cave, Zork I, the Scott Adams games), Ultima II/IV/V,
Wizardry I, Wizardry VII, and simulations like SimCity and
Civilization. Civ 2 is something of a current fixation.

I had a good friend who had a real pinball machine in his basement.
We spent a lot of time cleaning relay contacts and such to keep it
going.  I enjoyed both playing (for free) and tweeking aspects.

Oh yeah, pinball.  I've been known to cultivate a machine here and there. 
I really don't like the new ones, since the strategy has gotten too
complicated.  I guess I like the late 80's ones the best.  My last fave was
Bride of Pinbot - great game.
