Everquest, Orc Hill/Crushbone in Greater Faydark as a 7th grader. Lord of the Rings came out around that time which only added to it.

When I got my N64 and Banjo Kazooie

Seeing link turn from a kid into an adult in OoT.

Goldeneye/Perfect Dark parties

Actual lan parties, gaming with friends in the same room. COD, Wolf Enemy Territory, Unreal Tournament, etc.

Crossing into Mexico for the first time in Red Dead Redemption at sunset with this song from the soundtrack playing.

So Far Away, Jose Gonzales

Lyrics:

Step infront of a runaway train just to feel alive again.
Pushing forward through the night, aching chest and blurry sight.

It's so far, so far away.
It's so far, so far away.

Cold wind blows into the skin.
Can't believe the state you're in.

It's so far, so far away.
It's so far, so far away.

Who are you trying to impress, steadily creating a mess?

Step in front of a runaway train, just to feel alive again.
Pushing forward through the night, aching chest and blurry sight.

Aching chest and blurry sight, aching chest and blurry sight...

Step in front of a runaway train, just to feel alive again.
Pushing forward through the night, aching chest and blurry sight.

Aching chest and blurry sight, aching chest and blurry sight...

First time walking into Vivec in Morrowind.

Boarding the Scarab in Halo 2.

Defeating Lavos's final form in Chrono Trigger.

The suicide mission in Mass Effect 2.

Goldeneye split screen had some fun memories.


Halo 3 with my old room mate was the best times though. "Adults" in college setting with green and no responsibilities. We wrecked shite in halo 3.

Goldeneye parties.

Halo LAN parties, and then Halo 2 online. Me and my buddy beating Ogre 1 and Ogre 2 in a best of five series in Halo 2.

Then seven years of WoW and meeting some of the most fun people I've ever met.

So many good times.

Was still fun, but a bittersweet sign that lan parties were over. Never was the same again.




Top memories for me:

-All weekend playthrough of RE5 with a friend who brought his TV and 360 over to my house

-For about a week or so, my friends took turns trying to beat every Goldeneye level on every difficulty in order to unlock the 2 extra MP maps......which weren't all that great.

-With every Halo LAN party we had, our first game was a free-for-all rocket game to 50 on Prisoner. We'd also have to get a no-shield shotty game on Chrion. That was pretty chaotic.

The day my druid in WoW finally got Swift Flight Form. The Old School way...

quote:

"Back in my day, we had to work to get our Swift Flight Form, work that meant a lot of travel, spending of gold, and running a dungeon that pretty much only benefited us druids, which was hard to get help for. We didn't have the luxury of getting it safe and sound from a trainer."


Man did that feel good. Much beer was consumed afterwards.

The day my WoW warlock got the Dreadsteed mount the old, hard, expensive way.

The day my WoW priest got Benediction the old, hard way.

The day I got Rivendares mount when you couldn't solo Strath.

Chris Suellentrop's favorite is winning the AFC Championship Game on a last second Hail Mary.

He's a former Yahoo News editor and a gaming writer. He mentions it in another podcast:

As a kid, finally finding the elusive red ring on Legend of Zelda.

In college, the LAN parties we'd have for Halo 1.
