for the first time ever? This was inspired by me playing the GBA port of Donkey Kong Country again on my DS. I remember the first time I ever popped that thing in, the graphics were gorgeous, the music was top notch and the controls were flawless, it really took me aback as a kid. Even though I still regard it as my favourite game ever, I'd love to see it through the eyes of my 6 or 7 year old self again.

I've ranted about how great this game is to you too many times but in short, this is a perfect game in my eyes. The characters, the story, the music, the gameplay. Its all god tier. I had it on my PS1 as a kid but my memory card got corrupt and I never got a new one, so I only played through the opening sequence again and again. Then sometime after I graduated high school I DL'd an emulator and played through it all in a week or 2, blew me away. The scream from the final boss before the battle starts still gives me chills.
If we were to go for something back when I was a kid, we'd be going back to Halo CE. Those were the days, fighting aliens, zombie aliens, saving the world as The Master Chief. I got my dad to buy it for me from a garage sale it was bundled with the Xbox and some other shitty games. I showed this game to all of my friends when I got it and got everyone into it, up to Halo 3 we would have multiplayer weekends, staying at someones house with 4+ TVs and Xbox 360s playing custom games til the sun rose, good days.
Starcraft is also a brilliant time, would love to play through that again, I'm a very shitty gamer so when I played it as a kid I used all the cheats. If I could do it all over again blind without the cheats I would love that.

Knew you'd pick Chrono Trigger. Combat Evolved is another one though that I'd love to play again for the first time, I remember being 7 and my uncle bring home the Xbox, bundled with Midtown Madness 3 and Halo CE, we had a good go on Midtown Madness and it was awesome, the graphics blew me away. But then we got on Halo and wow. The music, the detailed architecture, Cortana's wit, the alien blood. At the time, there was nothing quite like it. Though real talk, I hadnt completed it til 2012
I remember how my brother and myself convinced my mother to buy the first GTA for PC at the time it was released. Great game and times for sure. The other game I'd love to play for the first time is Age Of Empires II. Some years back I managed to set up some on-line games with a friend, that's as good as it gets!
spent so much time playing split screen on this, great times, I remember playing this on one of those gaming stations in a game shop and was blown away by the graphics.
the james bond games used to be amazing, sad day when activision took it over.
