Mom’s Got Game Giveaway!!!

May 5, 2009 by Unknown

I’ll let you in on a little secret….gaming is NOT just for men. No, ladies, it is not! I am not ashamed to admit that I LOVE to play on our Wii AND our XBox Live. Sure, i don’t play some of the shoot-em-up games or the sports games that my son and my husband like to spend all of their time on play. I love Zelda and Mario Party and MarioKart (chances are if it involves Mario, i’m all over it! heh) and Guitar Hero and Rock Band and I even sing a little High School Musical Karaoke with my 8-year-old.

For this very reason, I am THRILLED to be able to give away this AWESOME AWESOME (did i mention awesome) Mom’s Got Game Mother’s Day package to one of YOU!

Your package (valued at an estimated $275!) includes:

a red wireless controller:

Vision Cam:

Wireless Headset:

Copy of “Lips” (singing game)
:

lips.jpg

and here’s all I need from you…Tell me your all-time favorite video game. I mean, it can go all the way back to the Commodore 64 or the original Nintendo. I don’t care. I don’t judge. I want to know your favorite! I – or one of my trusty side-kicks – will choose a random winner this Sunday, on Mother’s Day!!

Good luck!
(i will try to keep my drooling to a minimum…)

**please note…this prize does NOT include an XBOX 360 console.
***please note…this prize is ONLY open to WOMEN (sorry, men. but you should get the women in your lives to come on and ENTER!)

    i love guitar hero, what is better than rocking out to your favorite songs. I may stink at it but i sure do have fun playing and anyway isn’t that what really counts in the end LOL. My favorite guitar hero has to be the Aerosmith edition. What is better than my all time favorite rock band combined with my bad eye hand co-ordination LOL.

  37. Alison says

    May 7, 2009 at 4:38 am

    It was an Intellivision game – a treasure hunt with elves and treasure and monsters. I can’t remember the name, but it was the one computer game I was ever good at!

  38. Linda Hastings says

    May 7, 2009 at 4:27 am

    I loved playing Halo with my son. I would get all freaked out by the monsters and run around and hide while my son would shot all the bad guys for me. He would laugh so hard as I practically danced and squirmed around like I was really IN the game. I could never coordinate the buttons enough and my gun would just end up shooting at the ceiling.

  39. Terry Perron says

    May 7, 2009 at 4:10 am

    It would have to be Donkey Kong, Only game I could really play
    now my boys laugh at me when I try to play there system.

  55. Maria says

    May 6, 2009 at 9:06 pm

    My favorite video game was PaperBoy. We recently downloaded it for the Wii, and it’s just not the same as it was on the Nintendo. But it was one of the first games my mom would let us play! 🙂

  56. Elizabeth says

    May 6, 2009 at 9:02 pm

    I LOVE Little Big Planet, for PS3…It has these cute little sock puppety things that you build structures for them to climb on, swing around on, work their way through dangerous situations. And then watch them get electrocuted or burned to death when you fail.

  57. Joyce Poyton says

    May 6, 2009 at 8:56 pm

    My favorite game was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I loved the action and the different kicks and spins that you got to choose from.
    I had one of my kid’s friends over after school and he told me if I whacked a certain area of the bridge 50 times it would take me to a secret level.
    Guess who was dumb enough to fall for that? You got it, me. My kids still make fun of me for that one.

  58. Karen says

    May 6, 2009 at 8:38 pm

    My hubby bought a Nintendo Wii and at first I wasn’t too sure about playing along because I thought watching him do the movements was entertaining enough but when I tried Wii sports I got hooked on ping pong! LOVE IT! It even makes me work up a sweat!

  59. Tania Bugnet says

    May 6, 2009 at 8:38 pm

    I still love my Zelda games! Awesome!

  60. Kimberly says

    May 6, 2009 at 8:38 pm

    OK this will show my age for sure but I loved Pac Man!! It was and probably still is my all-time favorite!

  61. Claudia says

    May 6, 2009 at 8:29 pm

    My all time favorite video game is Centipede. I know, I know, you are probably saying, “talk about old school”. However, I could play it for hours. I have to say, Guitar Hero runs a close second. Please pick me and make me the coolest mom on the planet. Thanks.

  62. Claudia says

  65. dmhaen says

    May 6, 2009 at 8:02 pm

    I haven’t played video games for sometime now cause I’m really not that good at them. I leave the games to my teenage son. But I do remember playing this game when we first got out computer way back when. I can’t remember the name of it but it had lots of boxes to jump over and so on and I did enjoy that one. Actually I just saw it posted here; it was Tetris.

  66. ivieliu says

    May 6, 2009 at 7:58 pm

    I love playing Wii Sport with my kids.

  67. sandra says

    May 6, 2009 at 7:56 pm

    High School Musical because I get to feel like a kid when playing it.

  68. Lottifish says

    May 6, 2009 at 7:25 pm

    All time favorite game huh? I’d have to say Mario Kart. Nothing is better than getting a big group of friends all in the same room to play and shout at each other.

  69. Maureen O'Donnell says

    May 6, 2009 at 7:03 pm

    My favourite all-time game is Frogger! So much fun to play 🙂

  70. Sarah says

    May 6, 2009 at 7:00 pm

  72. princessvix19 says

  73. Joy says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:49 pm

    wow – when i was a kid, we were not fortunate enough to have video games. My friend had Pacman on Atari though, so that had to have been my favorite as a kid. Boy, am i old!

  74. lisa yelds says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:47 pm

    I love my new WII, I have always played video games with my kids and will play them until I am old and grey! They are awesome I even have an original nintendo too! (:

  75. Dana says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:43 pm

    Old school Nintendo – Dr. Mario!!! It was kind of like Tetris, but with colours. Really gave you the “tetris-itis” problem of seeing squares after if you played too long. And BTW, I wanna win this for me – NO sharing with the boy 🙂

  76. Angela says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:32 pm

    I loved Zelda, and am currently being beat by a 7 year old in every game running – from Guitar Hero to (*sob*) tetrus style games!

  77. CJ says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:28 pm

    I have to admit that I’m still a sucker for Pac Man!! I was probably about 13 when I first started playing it. I borrowed my friend’s hand held game and my fingers were sore an hour later!

  78. Shonna Bechtel says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:17 pm

    I love Tetris. On any system. Love it. Although I recently was bored and picked up my sons Mario Party and found it quite addicting too. But favorite has to be tetris.

  79. Anne Borger says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:14 pm

    My favourite game is Jak and Daxter. We got it for my 6 year old, but now I’M hooked! I even dream about snagging precursor orbs!

  80. Brenda Penton says

    May 6, 2009 at 6:01 pm

    It is hard to pick my all time favorite. I loved playing all the Zelda games and I guess my favorite one would be Zelda: A Link to the Past

  81. Wendy Friesen says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:58 pm

    I love the Zelda games for nintendo. I remember playing with my brother…well he played and I worked the maps and clues!

  82. Kath says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:55 pm

    I don’t really know what I’m doing when my boys give me a turn with the Nintendo DS Star Wars The Complete Saga but I just love the flipping lego guys:-)

  83. Tina says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:55 pm

    for me it would be a tie between the Super Mario and Crash Bandicoot

  84. Katharine says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:53 pm

  86. Iris says

  87. lucky says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:31 pm

  88. leaver25 says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:29 pm

    Mario Kart

  89. Holly says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:21 pm

    My favorite game is Perfect Dark not the one for the 360 it’s not as fun as the one for the N64.
    I like FPS’s some RPG’s etc…
    More women could have fun gaming if they tried.
    For me Perfect Dark was awsome I was pregnant and didn’t have much to do so I started playing it.
    That game started me off I now LOVE video games.

  90. Paula says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:16 pm

    Pacman!!

  91. Desiree Naylor says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:12 pm

    My all time favorite game is Duck Hunt. My brother was a pro at every game out there and I remember beating him once at Duck Hunt and that day I still remember him saying, “you’re not bad.” I have never been able to beat him at any other game or even again at Duck Hunt, but I felt really close to him that day.

  92. Alana says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:10 pm

    I love Crash Team Racing… oh and of course Duck Hunt! That dog makes me laugh every time.

  93. Debbie W. says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:05 pm

    OK. I’m giving away my age here.
    My hubby and I competed with Frogger.
    We loved our Commodore 64.

  94. Debra Bashford says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:05 pm

    My favourite game was a small hand held Nintendo Game &Watch one called Parachute. It came out in 1981. It had little parachutists that would jump out of a plane, and get caught on a tree limb. You had to get the guy in the rowboat to catch them before they went into the shark infested water. It was not in colour and the rowboat could only be in one of three positions.

  95. Debby says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:00 pm

    I always liked PacMan – it’s fun and simple – just like me!!

  96. Gizele says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:50 pm

    My favourite game is ZELDA -A LINK TO THE PAST. It took me forever to figure out that game and I needed lots of help too. It was very challenging.

  97. celticelf says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:48 pm

    My favourite video game of all time has to be “Discworld” based on the novels of the same name by Terry Pratchett. Eric Idle of “Monty Python” fame does the voice of the main character “Rincewind”, and the dialogue is very tongue-in-cheek funny. If you left the game running for any length of time to go do something else, when you came back you were greeted by “Rincewind” tapping on the computer screen calling out “Helllooooooo…. is anybody out theeerrrrreeeee ??????”.

  98. Tova says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:46 pm

    No question. My all time favorite game is/was Nintendo Mario Bros. Maybe it was because it was the only game I played. But who cares? I loved it!! And I rocked it!!

  99. laura says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:42 pm

    My favourite is the old style Pacman or Pacmiss.

  100. Anne T says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:32 pm

    Ok, this will out my age; here I go…..
    PONG is my all time fav video game!! lol

    My favourite all-time video game right now is the lego ones I have been know to stay up past midnight playing the star wars one

  103. stacey dempsey says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:17 pm

    when i was in my 20’s before i had kids i was a serious ZELDA JUNKIE back with the old nintendo , but i would really like to try some of the newer games , i always like car racing games too , maybe even get rockin with guitar heroes like my kids LOL

  104. Diana Plavins says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:16 pm

    May 6, 2009 at 4:16 pm

    My favourite all time video game was and still is Super Mario Brothers. I hear that familar tune and it just makes me smile. I spent countless hours dodging Kuppa Truppa and saving the princess. Always a blast. Thanks for sharing the video game memories! Keep on playing…

  106. marbles999 says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:16 pm

    My ultimate favourite game was Street Fighter III at the arcade. It was a great feeling when you could beat the boys and they just coming with their quarters for their chance to play against a girl. LOL I miss those days…

  107. Marianne McAfee says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:13 pm

    Okay, I’m lame and can’t master even the most simple children’s video games. BUT, I love Sonic the Hedgehog from Sega Genesis. Cute blue hedgehog and his buddy the fox (what was his name?) always died when I played the game but they remained true to me and returned evermore for punishment until I had to return the game to the video store. Since the demise of Sega, I’ve searched high and low for an online version but nothing compares to the original. Gimmie cute, cartoon-y video game characters any day over the blood, guts and gore of most of today’s games!

  108. Kim Rasberry says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:12 pm

    Ms. Pac Man or Pac-Man. Love it still to this day and when I see it on a ferry, I have to play it.

  110. Kaila Burke says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:08 pm

    Definetly Duck Hunt
    I rememebr that it was a pretty big deal to have a Nintendo with one of those orange plasic “guns” that you used to shoot the clays or the ducks with. Hours of fun!
    Oh yes, and remember you could stand as close as possible to the TV and “cheat”

  111. Yvonne Horvath says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:07 pm

    My all-time favourite video game has to be “Pac-man” from since I was a kid! Now, I’m pretty impressed with Dance Revolution on the XBox!

  112. Clare says

    May 6, 2009 at 4:06 pm

    I love Rockband!! It’s so great for parties too!

    May 6, 2009 at 4:05 pm

    My all time favorite video game is crash bandicoot,,,(LOL don’t know if I spelled that right).. I remember limiting myself any time I played,,Like I could play for a couple hours if I got my housework done first,,or I had to stop playing until dinner was done then I could resume playing once kids were all tucked into bed..

  114. Julia says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:59 pm

    My favourite game was for the PC called Humans. You had to coordinate little cave man people and their tools to release the princess. I like games with a bit of strategy involved.

  115. Angela Pereira says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:59 pm

    My all time favourite game is Tetris – I could play that for hours!

  116. Shelley says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:58 pm

    I must admit I love video games. I can remember playing pac-man and astroids. Then can Super Mario on my Nintendo. Now I love Mario Cart and Mario Galaxy. I also love My Wii Fit becuase of it I have lost 25lbs in the last year. All games are good and help to get rid of that crazy stree we feel each and every day. Go Gamers!!

  117. Patricia MacLeod says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:53 pm

    I really, really love Pacman. It is my fav. I remember plugging in quarters to play. Now I can play playstation. It is a great game.

  118. Ann Marie Marchand says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:53 pm

    House of the Dead for the Wii. As a mom it is nice to have an outlet for anger and shooting zombies meets the requirements. Also if you have any power you could get them to bring back Toe Jam and Earl.

  119. jennifer says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:52 pm

    May 6, 2009 at 3:50 pm

    Holy Freebie Batman! You have a million comments today! I am torn between Zelda on Nintendo 64 and good old Miss Pac Man(played on my Apple 2C computer back in the 80’s). I agree…it’s not just for boys!

  121. sharon says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:49 pm

    Wow! This is soooo exciting. What a fantastic contest. I love video games. My fav is Brain Academy. I play it on my DS everyday. Sadly I don’t think it’s making me any smarter. But who cares, it’s fun!

  122. Leslie Sil says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:49 pm

  123. Angie says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:44 pm

    My favorite video game is Super Mario or Beautiful Katimari. Who doesn’t love rolling the entire world up??

  124. Susan K says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:42 pm

    I can’t remember the name of the game but it was for the first Gameboy that came out. You were a mover that had to rearrange boxes to clear a path. This actually gave me skills I needed shortly after to work on newsletters in desktop publishing 🙂

  125. Lorie S says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:40 pm

    I still love astroids, lol yes its going way back but its a blast! I remember when I got my arteri system my hands got blister on them from playing so much!
    I actually do still get to play this game and often beat my twelve year old son at at which is still amazed at!
    I would be thrilled to win this for sure!

  128. Melanie says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:36 pm

    I’m a fan of Sim City and games like that. I like the series of Tycoon, like Zoo Tycoon or Airport Tycoon.

  129. mwatt says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:35 pm

    Super Mario all the way, and how long ago was that, lol. The kids all think I’m crazy. BTW I hope “Maya” wins this contest, it sure sounds like she needs a pick me up-but good luck to all. Think positive!

  130. Maya says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:30 pm

    Ooh… my favortie game of all time would have to be Super MARIO 3. I couldnt get enough of it as a kid. I was known as the ultimate Mario Warrior back in my elementary school days.
    I need to play mario again!
    No sense in entering this contest- as I NEVER win anything! EVER!

  131. Bernadette says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:29 pm

    Oh man this is the ultimate thread for showing my age lmao I LOVED playing Frogger with my mom lol We would get a bottle of wine and sit there and laugh and play for hours!! Mom passed away two years ago now but the memories of those times are etched in my heart forever. Now that my son is an XBox live addict I love playing Halo with him or Guitar Hero. I’d give my eye teeth for this prize as we lost most of his gaming accessories in our move to take care of my mom before she passed. Good luck to everyone on this contest!

  132. GISELLE RICHARD says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:26 pm

    MY FAVORITE GAME OF ALL TIMES IS PAC MAN

  133. Liz says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:23 pm

    My favorite game still is Mario Bros for Nintendo. This is a awesome prize package and thank you for the contest.

  134. Heather Rosen says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:22 pm

    I admit to playing the occasional game on my PC… I happen to enjoy Bejeweled. It’s fun. And I’m great at earning points/badges online. It’s a superb boredom buster on the occasional nights when I can’t sleep. And it’s pretty. I think I must be a crow because I’m attracted to the ‘shiny’ graphics of the game!

  135. joanneelford says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:20 pm

    Growing up, Pac Man was definitely my game. Now, I have to admit I love Guitar Hero. Even mom’s can rock!

  136. Angela says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:20 pm

    My all-time favourite video game was Chopper Command for the Atari 2600. I played it when I was 12! I must have spent thousands of hours shooting at enemy bomber jets.

  137. Shelley DeLong says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:19 pm

    My personal favorite even to this day is PacMan! I loved that game so much I would sneak into the living room and play it when my parents were sleeping!

  138. Julie says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:16 pm

    Zelda. Every since Zelda came out for the original Nintendo, I have been hooked. I spent hours and hours playing this. Everytime I got a system upgrade I always brought the Zelda to accompany it. Sometimes vice versa. If Zelda came on on a game system, I had to buy the game system so I could play the game. Zelda all the way! Hyrule rules!

  139. Rose Nesbitt says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:15 pm

    I love Super Mario Brothers of course and all the various Zelda games.

  140. MONA says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:10 pm

    Wii bowling is my favorite. I also love the Wii golf. I think it is great exercise, and I am so good, I am beating my kids at it now.

  144. angela says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:04 pm

    my favorite game would be resident evil

  145. puzzled101 says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:03 pm

    I am a huge fan of video games. (I have my own DS, so I can watch soaps and play at the same time) Mario 64 and Zelda: Ocarina of time would tie for 1st. I just can’t choose between them.

  146. cc says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:01 pm

    I am kind of giving my age away when I say that my favourite video game was pac man! It was a blast back in the 80s!

  147. Rosanna says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:00 pm

    My favorite game is Super Mario Brothers. My son got this game for his DS and I totally took over his game. I got super hooked that I couldn’t put it down until I finally captured the Princess : )

  148. MsInterpreted says

    May 6, 2009 at 9:43 am

    My all time favorite is pacman, but since one of my kids talked me into playing Halo with them, I’m hooked!

  149. Lexi says

    May 6, 2009 at 5:04 am

    Hmmm…it’d have to be either MarioKart, or Donkey Kong….on the old nintendo, not the newfangled 3d thing. I feel so old.

  150. LibraryGirl62 says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:24 am

    The Galaga game! LOVED IT!!!!!!

  151. mamatulip says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:23 am

    Impossible Mission. I LOVED that game when I was a kid; I played it all the time. I loved starting a new game and hearing the evil computer voice say, “Another visitor! Stay a while…stay FOREVER!”
    LOL!

  152. April H says

    May 6, 2009 at 3:08 am

    Super Contra for the original Nintendo. I still remember the code for 30 men.

    May 6, 2009 at 2:31 am

    Pacman!! My cousin had a mini single console thing… remember those? Was so jealous he always had the good stuff. I could use this cause I have two boys and no video games!! So uncool.

  155. heather says

    May 6, 2009 at 2:25 am

    My favorite of all time is definitely Mario Kart on N64! Such a fun game. 😉

  156. Melissa says

    May 6, 2009 at 2:21 am

    Definitely Frogger! Loved that game on the good o’l Commodore 64

  157. Ilana says

    May 6, 2009 at 2:12 am

    Zelda, is by far, my favourite video game. I played for hours at a time!! It used to be Pitfall on Atari- back in the day.

  158. Roxy says

    May 6, 2009 at 1:26 am

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Donkey Kong!! For a new game I would go for Mario Kart.

  159. Porter says

    May 6, 2009 at 12:31 am

    Pac-Man on Atari!!!! I remember fighting with my brother to play that game.

  160. January says

    May 6, 2009 at 12:26 am

    My favorite was the super nintendo and the super mario brothers game!

  161. Anna says

    May 6, 2009 at 12:08 am

    I have adored many video games through the years, but Frogger for the Atari was my first true love!

  162. Therese says

    May 6, 2009 at 12:03 am

    I would have to say MarioParty, or MarioKart (I’m with you on this one, Jen!). And, I have to admit, I have been known to drum, strum and sing a tune or two on Guitar Hero World Tour, although mostly to hang out with my 12 year old:)

  163. Jenn says

    May 5, 2009 at 10:48 pm

    Sim City!

  164. Carlee says

    May 5, 2009 at 10:46 pm

    As the only female member of my house, I am proud to say I can kick their collective butts in most games! I absolutely love wii bowling, wii fit and I am a little ashamed to say I heart Lego Indiana Jones on xbox360. As a throwback, who doesn’t love Ms Pacman!!

  165. Joanie M says

    May 5, 2009 at 10:45 pm

    I haven’t played a video game in so long! I think the last one I played was Super Mario Brothers on Nintnedo! It was most likely the only video game I played. LOL A new system would be really cool!

  166. Tali says

    May 5, 2009 at 10:40 pm

    Nintendo GameBoy circa 1990 with Super Mario Bros. – the only video game on earth that can hold my attention for more than five minutes.

  167. St says

    May 5, 2009 at 10:32 pm

    I still get a Mario craving every now and then. Love the original and the 3rd one about equally.

  168. Gwen says

    May 5, 2009 at 10:02 pm

    I love Guitar Hero and Rock Band, but my all time favourite was Parasite Eve. It was the first video game I bought for just me.
    This package would be great!

  169. Linda says

    May 5, 2009 at 9:53 pm

    My favorite video game of all time is Zelda. Love Zelda.
    Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  170. hillary says

    May 5, 2009 at 9:49 pm

    I am a little ashamed to admit this … my favourite video game is Bejewelled. (which, I know, started as a computer game but it’s on one of my husband’s XBOX 360 arcade games and I play it all the time. Which leads to confusion when all his buddies see his user id online and try to talk to him and it’s just me.)

  171. bella says

    May 5, 2009 at 9:31 pm

    I want this!!
    ~favorite games~ Wii – Guitar hero and bowling. Wii fit.. hoola hoop and step aerobics.

  172. Amanda says

    May 5, 2009 at 9:23 pm

    Has to be the Katamari Games. Katamari Damcy, We love Katamari and now, Beautiful Katamari. Check it out on Youtube, it’s craaazzzyyyy fun! Also, you can punch in ‘Katamari’ on Photobucket or the like, and see crrrraaaazzyyy fans dressed up as the characters. It’s awesome!

  173. Lesley says

    May 5, 2009 at 8:31 pm

    Super Mario Bros hands-down! When I realized my 5 year old had it for his DS I became addicted….again….

  174. maria says

    May 5, 2009 at 8:21 pm

    i use to play Kirby’s Avalanche. loved it. went all the way and saved the princess. of course the house looked like a bomb went off during this phase.

  175. Dawn says

    May 5, 2009 at 8:01 pm

    My favorite game would have to be singstar.

  176. jodi says

    May 5, 2009 at 7:49 pm

    My current favorite game is Mario Kart WIIIIII! (said in my head, just like they do on the game…)
    I love being baby Peach. I never win…but I still love being baby Peach!
    I love playing with my boys and flying all over the couch, because who can judge a curve like me?!
    Anyway…great give-a-way!!

  178. Everyday Superhero says

    May 5, 2009 at 6:37 pm

    Probably Lolo for the original Nintendo. I’m working on downloading it for our Wii. Next I will be donning a sweat head band and some leg warmers (those are coming back in style, right?).

  179. Alison says

    May 5, 2009 at 6:34 pm

    Astrosmash, on the Intellivision, hands down. Oh, how I loved the Intellivision. (It was a real console, I swear! the Betamax to Atari’s VHS.)

  180. Tamara says

    May 5, 2009 at 6:26 pm

    Wii Fit. Specifically, the soccer heading game. can’t. stop. playing. must. beat. high. score.

  181. Cindy says

    May 5, 2009 at 6:20 pm

    Mario Kart for Wii. I suck at it, but I LOVE it. One day I will figure it out!

  184. Dina says

    May 5, 2009 at 5:49 pm

  186. Sharon says

  188. katie ~ motherbumper says

    May 5, 2009 at 5:17 pm

    all time fav? just one… eeek…. um I’d have to say the original Super Mario, though Guitar Hero makes me a rock star, but then I have a secret fetish for Super Monkey Ball. WAIT, no – it’s River Raid on the original woodpaneled Atari system.
    (pick me)(please)

  189. Anne Costello says

    May 5, 2009 at 5:15 pm

    I’m loving the Rock Band and Wii bowling for sure but my all time favorite is PACMAN!

  190. Chris says

    May 5, 2009 at 5:13 pm

    Definitely the original Mario Kart. We still play it with big groups of friends!

  191. Shosh says

    May 5, 2009 at 5:08 pm

    My favorite game is still the first video game I ever played, when I was 10 years old….Duck Hunt! To this day I am slightly amused and slightly horrified that the video game that came with a new Nintendo was a game that involved shooting ducks. Who even shoots ducks anyway?

  192. Meagan says

    May 5, 2009 at 4:42 pm

    I’m loving on Rock Band recently!

  193. Nicole says

    May 5, 2009 at 4:34 pm

    Pacman, man. How’s that for kickin’ it old school? 🙂

  194. Angella says

    May 5, 2009 at 4:20 pm

    I remember when we first got an Atari back in the day. Do you remember Pong? And then when PacMan came out? Good times, good times.

  195. LAVENDULA says

    May 5, 2009 at 4:15 pm

    hi Ali i am almost ashamed to admit that even though i have teens in my house we have no game system here.but we have friends who do and i love DDR is that what the dance one is called and my teen daughter loves kingdom hearts

  196. The Dumbest Smart Girl You Know says

    May 5, 2009 at 3:16 pm

    MarioCart ALL the way! And I was always Yoshi.

  197. foradifferentkindofgirl (fadkog) says

    May 5, 2009 at 3:09 pm

    Growing up, it was Space Invaders on the old school Atari. I LOVED playing that with the old school graphics. These days, I could literally forego work and food to play Guitar Hero for hours.

  198. Lindsay says

    May 5, 2009 at 2:48 pm

    favorite video game is Rock band. I love the interactiveness of it.

  199. Keren says

    May 5, 2009 at 2:46 pm

    I love Super Mario Brothers (from the first Nintendo), though i never was able to crack the final castle…something to aspire to…

  200. ruth says

    May 5, 2009 at 2:33 pm

    I love Bust a Move for PS2….my sister, mom, & i played over 100 games in one sitting…

  201. Sarah says

    May 5, 2009 at 1:23 pm

    So I have always been awful at video games (no hand eye coordination) so my fave would be tetris because I was actually decent at it.

  202. Mari says

    May 5, 2009 at 3:31 am

    Lesse… fav of all time? Totally Pitfall, for the ATARI.

  203. Amy says

    May 5, 2009 at 1:53 am

    My favorite video game has to be Super Mario Brothers. I stink at it – but I still love it. My five year old won’t let me play because he says I will just get killed. He’s right.
