Oh, loads.

Elite (BBC), Chuckie Egg (BBC)(I have a Direct X version somewhere that's ace), Paradroid (Commie 64), Sensible World of Soccer (Amiga), Any of the GTA series (Amiga, PC)(except GTA2 and GTA: London), the early Infocom adventures (Commie 64), most of the Epyx 'Games' series (Commie 64), Interstate '76 (PC), Baldur's Gate (PC), Championship/Football Manager Amiga/PC) and a bucket load of First Person Shooters (PC).

SWOS rocked as did the early infocom adventures. You can play most of them online.

Final Fantasy VII

I bet millions of people say this is their best lol.

I have Final Fantasy X which is great for my first Final Fantasy, though i hate the fact that you have to keep watching cutscenes everytime you die (with hammy voice acting). Plus, the battles are too freaking long. Gorgeus graphics though.

P.S. why did it need three discs?

I think it needed 3 discs because of the extensive soundtrack (80+ tunes) and all the FMV's - the ending sequence alone was about 20 minutes long I seem to remember.

Agree FFX's voice-acting was hammy (as is the case with 9 out of 10 new games these days) - I wish they'd go back to the days of just dialogue boxes. Surprised

Actually i'd disagree, we wouldn't be able to hear the excellent voice acting in games like The Chronicles of Riddick:Escape from Butcher Bay. Plus, i hate reading text if it's on a console as it hurts my eyes-i don't think my eyes could bare reading all the text in FFX Crying or Very sad

I prefer dialogue boxes, at least for RPGs because then I can go at my (snails) pace.

But who needs either when you can just push the Start button and hold down FIRE! Very Happy
