Favorite game growing up......

Wild Strawberries on the Atari.

Back in the days when we had to type games into the computer manually.

My brother and I named a kitten after this game (Strawberry - Warb for short), because she was an evil and vicious little stalker (and completely feral), just like the mobs in this game.

I didn't have gaming consoles until I started to work and actually earn $ myself, but I remember how one of my classmates had piratic cartridge console at home with Ninja turtles and Mario and what else not. We sometimes played it together after school until his older brother came home and kicked us out to play himself - then we just sat there and watched how he beat the game which was kind of both awesome and frustrating because we couldn't beat any game playing together and then he just did it alone like it was nothing.
I hate those type of games right now but when Mortal Kombat did first show up that was something. Since then we started to have tournaments with friends for any game and when PS1 came out then it was even more awesome - we had our own 6 to 8 people Tekken tournaments, Fifa tournaments, Quake tournaments and so much more. Quake I think was the most fun I have ever had - 4 people sitting at one TV screen accusing each other of watching on others' screen and hitting each other with elbows while playing the game. The 4th player didn't see others on his screen just bullets so it was even more interesting for him. At that time I think lot of us could easily beat anyone on official tournaments for games like Tekken 2, Tekken 3, King of fighters because we knew all the moves and combos that wasn't even shown on game manuals and on Tekken it was 2 players countering absolutely anything their opponent did, we often had the winner of the round decided only when the time went out.
That's why I hate how kids are now - they don't compete. They see someone better and start to cry about it. I liked it better when games were difficult and people had to try hard to beat them, when the guy who first beat the final boss was the king of the neighbourhood because no-one else could do it.
