Isn't this just another "what's your favorite games" just with a different label.

Anyways.

Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Together
Arc the Lad 2
Brigandine
Wild ARMs 3
Final Fantasy 6
Super Castlevania 4
Xenogears
Tales of Eternia
Breath of Fire 3
Grand Theft Auto 4(if my internet was still working in this scenario, otherwise it'd be another game.)

It's not snowing and it's not supposed to snow at all in Buffalo, supposedly the bad weather capital of the universe, but if it were Snowpocalypse 2009, I'd probably set up a new game of Civ IV with the hardest, longest settings and sit on my ass until I could leave the house.

[Ed Oscuro]

I'd like to see a list of games that feature people being snowed in (I don't mean anything about teh durgz though) or, failing that (most likely), games with a snow theme.

You know, I think some N64 3D platformers have ice barriers to melt with stuff - possibly one of the Zeldas, a Banjo-Kazooie game, or Super Mario 64, maybe.

[Baloo]

I kept myself busy with these games today (I'm in PA and we got a TON of snow out here too):

Streets of Rage 2 (Genesis)
Streets of Rage 2 (Game Gear)
Sega Rally Championship

[Mimi Nakamura]

Soul Calibur
Super Mario World
Puzzle Bobble
Picross DS
Biohazard 4
Bare Knuckle II
Saturn Bomberman
Contra III
Virtua Fighter 4
Dynamite Headdy

Seeing as how I did this through the last blizzard I was snowed in for (albeit with Civ III), I'm going to have to agree. There's something about just sitting around for a good eighteen hours and just trying to plow through the French with your musketeers.

Anything immersive would make my list. I know that right now I'm in the mood for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and seeing as how I am indeed stuck in a snow storm (albeit not snowed in), it's going to be what I'm playing tomorrow.

Isn't this just another "what's your favorite games" just with a different label.

Not quite, I don't think I could play my favorites all on the same day with endless hours snowed in.

I'd probably sharpen my skills on fighting games (GG, SF2's, Marvel VS Capcom), or Have a Contra Day (Contra, Super C, Alien Wars)

It really isn't just a "whats your favorite game list" For instance unfortnately I got called in to work...but imagine if you got snowed in and unexpectedly you didn't have to go anywhere,...your job, school, whatever....With snow storms and depending on what state you live....you never know sometimes what your itinerary for that day might be...things can get cancelled...etc...So here you are STUCK inside with all the time in the world,,,,this is why it is diffferent!

Isn't this just another "what's your favorite games" just with a different label.

Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Together
Arc the Lad 2

I loved playing Legend of Zelda back in the day when school was canceled for snow.

[Ricochet]

I did in fact get snowed in this weekend (Baltimore) so I did IN FACT have to occupy myself with games. My sequence went something like this:

NiGHTS
Chrono Trigger
Kenseiden
Space Harrier

It was especially nice to game by an open window and glance out at the white, deserted world.

[AB Positive]

I'm further north and have the day off - so I'm going to enjoy our 6-9" of snow...


Top ten in order would be too messy, so I'm going to pick ten that I think would make a great snowed in grouping... in no particular order:

1) Alternate Reality: The City (a800)
2) Yoomp! (a800)
3) Phantasy Star IV (gen)
4) Landstalker (gen)
5) Super Mario Brothers 2 (via mario all stars)
6) Turrican (amiga)
7) Wizkid (amiga)
8) King of Fighters XI (ps2)
9) Madden 10 (ps2 ... shut up)
10) SNK v. Capcom: Cardfighters Clash (NGPC)



... which I'll probably hit all those tomorrow
