Part one: What is the best game to come out of the 80s?

This is the second part of the series. This is eventually all going to get compiled into one megathread for people who want gaming recommendations from Chapos specifically. Other decades and consoles will come in sporadic subsequent threads.

Expanding on your choice is definitely a plus.

    My picks are overly simple so don't hate.

    I don't know if it's the best or most groundbreaking or anything, but I def played Golden Eye 007 the most at the time. Getting people around the neighborhood to come play was always fun.

    Runner up for me is probably mario kart for N64. I played it some at the time, but I played it a lot more when I was in high school and my friends would "drink & drive" which we would set up so you had to drink a full beer before you crossed the finish line. Which was also fun. Lol.

      I loved Mario Kart as a kid. I could never quite beat 150cc though. My reflexes were always and still are terrible.

      I played the fuck out of Goldeneye like pretty much everyone my age. It was a total cultural phenomenon. That said, it doesn't hold up super well with all the great dual analog shooters.
