I was thinking we need some Forum Games like we have on LABN. Anyway, here is my contribution, the ABC games works like this: we choose a topic say, Movies or Books or Actors, and then each entry runs from A-Z. (For Example: Films - Armageddon to Zoolander.)

So lets start, the first catagory is, funnily enough, Superheroes/Villans (from anywhere, TV, comics, Cinema...)

For W, can only say Wonder Woman.

And Lou, V was a great miniseries, particularly with the deliberate parellels in history. :)

XFL...this was the worst crap ever put on tv...it made a mockery of wrestling fans, football fans, and brought tv to a new low

I had to think long and hard on this one, before I finally remembered watching the Young Indianna Jones Chronicles. Sorry, but older Indy was by far superior.

grrrrr, the 90's version of Zorro sucked...it was on YTV here in canada and made such a mockery of the way too cool mexican legend...it should have been wayyyy better...but sadly, it was a tv show i used to watch with anticipation when i would get home from high school :? ...

Alone in the Dark

The ABC Game

hehehe, for A I would have said Anachronox, and will just mention that now as a truely favourite game. :)

But for B, I must admit to being a Star Trek geek and saying Birth of the Federation. :)

Ah, F, so many bloody choices.

But I'll go with the classic, the game on which 8-Bit is based, Final Fantasy

Grim Fandango

Kinda like Alone in the Dark, but you're already dead. :)

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

By far one of the best and most difficult Stealth Shooters you will find.

Hmm, not exactly a classic, but the only "O" I could think of:

Operation Flashpoint

The ABC Game

Meredith Bell's picture

How about Operation WOLF? The arcade classic? ;)

Pacman

Hehe, love that little guy, what's even better is they gave him a politically correct female counterpart in Ms. Pacman. :D

Quake

Geez, I wasted hours and hours on that game, and I hate first person shoot-em-ups. Go figure.

So many choices for ‘S’. There’s Sin, System Shock, Starcraft, Settlers, any number of ‘Sim’ variations. But I have to go for one that predates all of those. Not many of you will remember this one, but it was a great little game back in the days.

Spyhunter

The ABC Game

Meredith Bell's picture

Personally I would have gone for SUPER MARIO! :D or the Sega rival Sonic the Hedgehog. For T, there were quite a few including my character actor Tomb Raider. In the end I had to go with this classic just cause I've wasted sooo much time playing it over the years and I still go back for more -

Tetris

UFO

While for T, I would have had to say TIE Fighter, and serve Emperor Palpatine loyally.

Leaving me to say one of the classics of RP, Ultima

X-Wing

Yay!! What could be more fun than racing around the systems (and eventually the Death Star) in your very own X-Wing? Ok, along the way they made you fly Y-wings and A-wings and even B-wing bombers... but you still got to fly an X-wing :P

The ABC Game

Kaarin's picture

Ys

Which is a real game, believe it or not. And Heather, the answer to your question is simple: flying the entire range of TIE Starfighter lines, though the TIE Advanced is definatly my favourite. Then using those TIE Starfighters to destroy the rebel scum. Mwahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Well, I was tempted to go for Zed, simply to irk the Americans. :wink: But I found I just couldn't ignore one of the pioneers of the adventure games:
