#FiveVideoGames that defined me huh? Let’s see…

1.) #ManiacMansion First NES game I asked for myself, inspired by a Nintendo Power feature. This game may have warped my young mind.
2.) #SamandMax Hit the Road. When my family first got a PC the rule was educational games only. I convinced them it was by the image of Mount Rushmore on the cover. Glad they didn’t look too close…
3.) #VtM Redemption. First time I got into a modding scene. We ran #TTRPG campaigns in multiplayer using WODMOD.
4.) #DarkAgesNexon First truly memorable MMO experience. I’m still friends with people I met here. Also had my identity stolen in the most bizarre way (long story, tell you later).
5.) #ChronoTrigger Before BlockBuster, I re-rented the local mom & pop shop’s sole rental copy so much they let me keep it, given I’d basically paid for it. Also first game I wrote fanfic for, though it was just very tame Frog backstory stuff hosted on a pre ff.net archive (no lemons allowed). If you understand that, your back must also hurt.

#fiveVideogames meme? Sure why not :)

1. #zooKeeper, playable on MAME. An overlooked and incredibly fun and diabolical risk-vs-reward trap, you can play it safe but you won't want to;
2. #themePark, Bullfrog's earlier take on better games, but this got me into the "Give folk a fun time while making bank" genre;
3. #redFactionGuerilla, literally smash capital with a big hammer;
4. #saintsRow, like GTA but way more fun and silly;
5. #raiden series, genre-defining vertical shooters zap zap!

Can't sleep because my brain decided this was the most important work it needed to do right now so here goes:

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles
Metal Gear Solid
Knights of the Old Republic 2
Journey
The Last of Us

It's not very indie games of me as lists go but it's probably my honest answer.
