What is your favorite childhood game?

As the title says, what is your favorite childhood game? Do you still play that game? Do you wish they'd make a remake? What makes that game so amazing to you as a child?
I'd say my favorite childhood game was either Super Mario Sunshine or Halo 3 as I spent so many hours on either game with friends finding glitches, having speedrun races, and screwing around. I wish they'd make a remake of either and I still play both today hoping I can be a kid again...

Hmm.. Good question... But.
Maybe... San Andreas. :3

Freddy Fish for sure, never played something else. It was always an adventure

Oh man jak 3 for the ps2 so much fun and memories also so glad they made a remake for the ps3

Strategies - Red Alert, European Wars.
Shooters - CS 1.3/Half-Life, Unreal Tournament, Duke Nuken, Quake II/III.
Fighting - Tekken 3, Street Fighter 2, Mortal Combat 3/4.
Racing - Revolt, Driver, Need for Speed 2/3/Underground

It was either Unreal Tournament or Soldier Of Fortune 2 man.. FPS was the shit when I played.

Great Question.
2 main games that I really loved in my childhood (And still occasionally play today).

1. The Settlers 3. There is just no other colony building game like it. Conquering, expanding, infrastructure, and unlike most other games you actually see everything happening in the world. You don't just build a sawmill and it generates wood out of thin air; you need a lumberjack and a sawmill and you see settlers transporting the wood logs from the lumberjack to the sawmill, and the milling dood taking that wood log and turning it into a plank, and then it gets transported to a storage area or just stays there, either way the only resources you have are the ones you actually see in the world. Makes the game very immersive and still basically the spearhead of the genre; later settlers games became too cinematic, the art style changed, the playstyle changed, etc.

2. Star Wars Episode 1 Racer. Its basically a driving game but using the podracers from Star Wars Episode 1: Phantom Menace. Its a very fun little game with 28 different tracks and about 20 Podracers or even more to choose from, with upgrading of parts to change podracer statistics, tracks that have shortcuts, and visually quite stunning considering its a 20 year old game. Also unlike other driving games, SW Ep1 Racer has some really fast racing going on. You don't drive a car at 140 km/h. You drive a podracer at 600 km/h. So its much more fast paced than any other racing game I know (also in the Zero-G tunnels you can go faster than 1000 km/h). Training mode also has an option to drive the tracks mirrored which adds for some variety. Wish there was a reverse mode for the tracks as well, but that wouldnt even work on those tracks that have things like jumps in them etc.

Heroes of Might and Magic III
The turn-based gameplay has you recruiting mercenary heroes, whom you then guide about an overhead map jam-packed with resources, treasure, magical artifacts, mysterious landmarks, monsters, and more.

I used to play this game called Night-Light I think.
In which you have to find things in a dark place and everything looked scary until you would shine a torch on it. And it would turn out to be something completely harmless.
I've been searching for that game a lot but never found it. It had a cat and a dog as narrators. Really fun game. Just wish I could find it and download it somehow.

I used to waste hours and hours in the net caffe to play red alert. I spent all my child money there
