15 in ’15: The 15 classic video games we want to play again before the end of 2015

*Flashback*

Joe Harrington

Take a trip down memory lane.

A large chunk of our youthful days were spent with a glare of a television beaming on to our faces.

No, we weren’t watching re-runs of the Oireachtas Report, we were playing video games.

We were lucky enough to grow up in an era when video game technology was making huge strides so we played a lot of classics.

We’ve decided to re-live some of those golden moments by setting ourselves a video games challenge in 2015.

We’ve made it our mission to play these 15 classic games again by the end of this year. It’s going to be fun.

The list was so tough to put together because we had to leave out a lot of great games.

If you think we’ve made a major clanger in leaving a certain game out, let us know.
