UNREAL TOURNAMENT 99 !!!

Still brilliant, I haven't found a game which comes any where near this ones fast paced action gameplay, if there are any newer games out there with a similar style gameplay please let me know!

I am getting a bit bored of the graphics with UT99, it does not really put my 7800GT to the test though this card really does make it shine!

Erm, UnReal Tournament 2003? 2004? 2007 in Sept'06 ?

Actually, to be honest, UT seems to have been written so well, that even 2004 will run brilliantly and your GFX will still be lazing about doing nothing for most of the time.

Some maps I am hitting 350FPS and more!!!

Even runs fairly well on a duron & GF4 MX420 if you set the rez to low-as-poss, so a 7800 will play it peachy as heck @ 1600x1200 with all the trimmings set to "Holy Sh..!!"

Bomberman rocks :)

I still play a lot of old snes and Nes games main ones atm:
Super Mario World (when this first came out me and my brother in-law sat playing it for about 2 weeks solid until we completed it :) ).
Street Fighter Turbo = the best fighting game ever made.
Killer instinict = Second best fighting game ever made (78hit combos!!!)
Micro Machines (nes version) = still a brilliant game :)

On the Pc i still play Starcraft (best RTS ever) and the other day i introduced my nephews to the wonder that is Diablo 2 (Yeah i love Blizzard).

Oh yeah played worms the other day too and i have the original lemmings on my mobile phone which i play if im bored at work :)

Proper game that ;) . I like a game of Raiden every now and again. Others are probably Commando, Bomberman, Track and Field, Crude Buster, Ghosts 'n' Goblins, Ghouls 'n' Ghosts, Pacland, Pacmania, Rainbow Islands, Jail Break, Hyper Sports, Robocop, (to name but a few :p ) all with the added bonus of playing the original boards in my arcade cab. :D I've probably got more than 50 boards which all get regularly played. Got a nice Marble Madness pcb set and trackballs coming soon (love that game!)

There's a nice few oldies on the Spectrum I like to occasionally have a bash at as well. Megadrive as well.

R-Type. Awesome shooter and still play it (and still lose!!!).

On pc-Engine GT, MAME and on PSP (PCE emu).

Bloody Great
 
On the PC it is Red Alert 2. Online comp stomps are still a classic.

On console, I dunno really.. I sometimes pop on the odd old game for a laugh but I don't play them regularly. Planning to play through Final Fantasy 7 and 9 again though.
 
God that's a hard question for a MAME ho3 such as me...

Regularly:

Ghosts n Goblins (still can't complete it without cheating)
Bubble Bobble (have to remember to hit the 2 player start button at the end - lol)
Green Beret
SWoS (PC - have the original CD version with the 'honey monster' commentator on it)
Flashback (Amiga - quality)
Turrican 2 (Amiga - unbelievable especially the soundtrack)
Speedball 2 (Amiga)
Dungeon Master (Amiga)
Bloodwych (Amiga)
CREATURES (C64)
Cybernoid (C64)
Robin Of The Wood (Spectrum)
Target Renegade (C64)
Feud (MSX)
Double Dragon (Arcade)
Final Fight (Arcade)
Streets Of Rage (Megadrive)

And many, many more....
