In a tangent to the other thread, in the following catergories what do you think the best game ever is? Games on the Xbox, Playstation 2, Gamecube and Gameboy Advance are banned as are arcade games after 1997.
Text Adventure (Adventure game where you type the commands out).
Point and Click Adventure
Birds Eye View Racing Game (Top down 2D racing game)
Behind the Car Sprite based Racing Game
Scrolling sprite Beat 'em Up
One on One beat 'em up
Football game using Sprites
Other sports game
Single Screen platform game (platform game that doesn't scroll, so Jet Set Willy is fine...)
Scrolling platform game (wonderboy, ghost and goblins, etc)
Platform game with ladders
Run and gun game (Contra, Gunstar Heroes, etc)
Single Screen shooter
Pre 1994 scrolling shooter
Mario game (pre Mario 64)
Sonic game
Strategy game
War game
Arcade Adventure game
RPG
Pre 1994 Puzzle game
Pre 1994 Action game
Pre 1994 3D game
Post 1994 2D game
Odd game (game that doesn't really make that much sense if you tried to explain it but you love it anyway).
Original Amstrad CPC game (ie not a conversion from C64, Spectrum, Oric, BBC, etc. Tricky one this... ^_^ )
8 Bit Game (any game you've not mentioned about on exculsively 8 bit machine, Atari 2600, Intellivision (yes I know it's technically a 10 bit processer) PC Engine games count here)
16 Bit Game (any game you've not mentioned about on exculsively 16 bit machine, Super Famicom/Nintendo games count here as does Texas Instrument 4/99A but I've a feeling no one will).
32 Bit game (not much choice here unless you had an Acorn Archiemedes or a 386 PC...)
