In order I've had an Atari 2600, Commodore 64, Sega Megadrive, PS1, PS2, Xbox, xbox360 and ps3. I think I'm out now though I can't justify the spend on a new console as I use it mostly for madden, NCAA13 and Netflix these days.
 
Favourites games of all time include:
 
1. The football manager/championship manager series - been playing it 20 years.
2. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (1 and 2)
3. Skate 2 (and the other two but 2 was the best) a game I still go back to again and again to f**k around. The first I ever completed all of the DLC and took an active interest in online leaderboards.
4. Madden (been playing that since 95 although I prefer NCAA these days)
5. WWF smackdown vs raw series (great for multiplayer)
 
Some others I love Earthbound, Monkey Island, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, the NHL series, Fifa, Fable and brokensword.
 
 
I tried to get into Call of Duty but I am absolutely sh*te at FPS.

Modern Warfare 2 was the balls,one of my favourite FPS ever.The most recent ones have been bullsh*t though,basically a Hollywood movie with a small bit of playing thrown in between

San Andreas was the best GTA until 5 came along IMO,it had it all

yeah i agree. All that mental jumping in AW was complete crap. Then people hated the skill based match making that was on it meaning if you were really good you constantly got difficult lobbies so people started to reverse boost in order to get easier lobbies.

MW2 & 3 were the best, they never should of changed the format at all.

BO3 looks good from the multiplayer ive seen tho theres still fuking running along a wall which is going to be annoying.
put em under pressure!

Played a lot of Call of Duty myself. Praying BO3 will be good, would nearly just prefer if they kept it basic and just remade COD4 with better graphics and new maps.

San Andreas was my favourite GTA, I remember cruising through the countryside on a quad bike then usually up the mountain and fly off it in some shape LOL The tunes on it were brilliant too. GTA IV was a disappointment following it, seemed bleak and dreary in comparison.

Anyone know where I could pick up a copy of Walking dead season one pc game? I don't like steam as I prefer the hard copy but its impossible to get a copy of it at a low price.
I won the Player of the Century award thanks to the people.Pele was second.He also came second behind Aryton Senna as Brazil's greatest sportsman.The award FIFA gave Pele isn't worth sh*t - Maradona

PS1, metal gear solid and games like Crash Bandicoot were crackers. But the one that I was obsessed with (still am) was Resident Evil. Well, Resident Evil 2 first, and then the first one after strangely! But have loved the franchise since. The movies are total cock though. Remastered version of 1 online for PS4 so might get that. Also, talk of a rename of 2, which would be the absolute bollocks!

Still, it's going to take something special to beat the last of us. I genuinely can't say enough good things. If you haven't played it, go do it now

Still have my PS3 since 09, longest relationship I've ever had (new gf doesn't like that joke). Had PS1 and PS2 before that, started off with a Sega Mega Drive. Put this site up before but its a encyclopedia for old games on those consoles from 90's and 80's www.vizzed.com

Currently swapping between playing Battlefield 4 online and PES 2015 online, while also trying to do all of the Metal Gear Solid games in a chronological order (starting with MGS 3 based in 1964, going all the way up to MGS 4 set in 2014.) As I said in other thread I have Last Of US downloaded and I have no doubt it will live up to the hype I've seen elsewhere. Looking forward to playing it.

September will be a busy month with Metal Gear Solid 5, Pro Evo 2016, Battlefield: Hardline and Madden 16 all on my wishlist LOL which would be mad getting all of them if it weren't for the Ireland games on at the start of the month
