Played a lot of games, some good ones to. . the only game that I couldn't leave untoutched when it was 3 in the morning and I didn't feel like going to bed was XBoing. Not that's the most grafical game, or the most fun I've played. The the one I still needed to play.

Before that, it started with the Zelda series from Nintendo. The good old 8 and 16 bit days ... . :-[

TMA: Quarantine is the game where you drive a hover-taxi armed to the teeth through a prison city full of adrenaline addicts (and the odd crackwhore). Is that the one you're thinking of? ;)

[lowzeewee]

Red alert 1 AND C&C

[Terror]

Rise of the Triot

I just love that game.. remember the homeseeking missiles

remember those treachurous germans? ;D they would go down on their knees and beg for help, but if you show mercy, and turn your back on them.. they will pickup their gun and shoot you in the back. and yes, it's a great game. The graphix looked very good at that time, with all that futuristic fancy smancy stuff.
