Childhood Game Collection (INCOMPLETE)

The games that I owned throughout my childhood. Not a complete list as I simply cannot remember every game I’ve ever owned, but all the major ones will be here. I haven’t played many of these games in a very long time so I’ll only have stuff to say about a select few. For the purposes of this list I’m classifying everything before high school as my childhood.

At the time I didn’t care much about Star Wars (watching Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith had convinced me that Star Wars was boring) beyond thinking Obi-Wan and Yoda were cool, but this shit was my life in middle school.

I never beat either of the Sonic Adventure games as a kid because I would eventually reach a point where I stopped having fun and turned the game off. But I was always down to play City Escape.

I’ve heard all the defenses of this game and I can see where they’re coming from, but this is one of the most miserable experiences I’ve ever had playing a game.

I’ll admit, one of the first things I did in this game was type in ‘sex’ to see what it would make.

I would be more than happy with Rockstar releasing these smaller-scale top-down handheld GTA games in between the main ones, but alas.

The first first person shooter I ever played. I unfortunately didn’t appreciate it at the time because I was a dumb kid who wanted to be playing CoD 4 like everybody else.

There just aren’t games like this on PlayStation anymore and that makes me undeniably sad.

My uncle visited one time and just gave me a copy of this and LocoRoco. I found the cheat code for infinite grinds and basically ruined the game for myself but I had a ton of fun.

My mom couldn’t afford to buy me real Bionicles but she could afford to buy me this game. Twice. Except this time instead of being a mediocre third person shooter it’s a mediocre first person shooter.

I think this is the greatest PSP game ever made, and I would consider it the greatest rhythm game of all time if Theatrhythm Final Fantasy didn’t exist.

Wartime drama mixed with a heavy dose of anime bullshit and I was OBSESSED. So obsessed I would name characters in other video games after rhis game’s main character.

I put both this and Season of Ice on here not because I owned both but because I can’t remember which one I owned, I just know I owned one of them. Anyway, it seems Vicarious Visions’ calling was converting Playstation 3D platformers into 2D GBA games.

I had let my cousin play my copy of this game with a 100% complete save file. When I got the game back from him and saw that he had deleted said save file, that was the closest I had ever come to strangling somebody.

Fun story: I accidentally stole this game from Walmart. This happened when I was 7 years old. After getting the game off the shelf, I, absolutely enamored with it, walked around the store with the box in my hands staring at it the entire time we did the rest of our shopping. When we went to checkout I was still holding the box and neither my mom nor the cashier noticed that I still had it, so it never got scanned. It wasn’t until we were halfway home that we realized we had left the store without paying for the game. This turned out to be a good thing because this game sucks.

I’d had four different consoles by this point and owned only one decent racing game on any of them. This isn’t it, by the way.

It was this weird touch screen based top-down third person shooter with first-person brawling sections. A real odd title.
