Most people today still know about the juggernaut known as Guitar Hero.

It was a game where you and your friends picked up plastic instruments that had multi-colored buttons on it and pressed them to a rythem. It was fun -- a lot of fun!

Guitar Hero was about battling friends to who could get the highest score to awesome songs from Rob Zombie, Avenged Sevenfold, Buckethead and more!

Then, it all vanished.

Zombies seem to be all the rage right now. With the successful comic adaptation of The Walking Dead, World War Z, etc. Zombies are the popular thing! However, I really don't think there was a time where Zombies weren't popular. Night of the Living Dead made zombies pretty terrifying...you know what made zombies fun though? This game!

At some point in time, when this game came out...everyone went from "I want to be a Firefighter dad!" to "I want to be a city planner dad!" I'm not really sure how many people became city planners because of this game, but there has to be at least one or two. Who would have thought that adjusting city tax, building residential and commercial zones, would be fun? Well it was, and still is.

Yes...I know...this game is barely 2 weeks old, but it had to be mentioned. I have owned a WiiU for about 3 months (I think...) now and I have loved the system since I got it. I have mentioned many times, "Try before you judge" on this system, and I still stand by that statement. I've been waiting for a REALLY GOOD game to stumble upon this system...and that has happened.

Recently I bought a Nintendo WiiU...so far, the game console is really fun! I really only have one game for the thing, but it has been around for quite a few years now. Zelda has always been some of the most top notch games in gaming history (Ocarina of Time being my favorite), and many people saw this game originally and though, "WTF?!?!" Until they played it...

I have been doing these GTTBYD posts for quite some time now, and I never even thought about posting this one. THE GAME THAT STARTED IT ALL! Well, it didn't really start 'it' all but it did create a international icon and changed the way gaming was played forever. When you got your NES game console, you were treated with Duck Hunt and the classic...Super Mario Bros.

Children of the '80s and '90s pretty much learned everything they need to know from TV. (It was basically like a third parent.) Besides "very special" sitcom episodes, one of the major ways we learned about how to say no to drugs and avoid "stranger danger" was from public service announcements.

In the 1980's, video games only required 2 people to program a single game. Nowadays, they require a team of over 1000 to produce one game! The cool thing though about a single programmer, is that they can come up with some weird stuff. Like a fluffy ball thing with legs and a large tubular nose.

Resident Evil 2 is still my favorite RE game of all time, but 3 is a very close second. During the PSX era, there was a ton of amazing games coming out, and most of those today are considered classic games (I never want to think of something I grew up with as "classic")! Resident Evil 3 Nemesis is the last RE game on PSX, so how does it hold up?

Mortal Kombat, the first game where you could decapitate someone. Isn't that just awesome? Mortal Kombat became a HIGHLY successful game in the arcades and home consoles. When a game sells over a million copies, what does that mean to developer? LET'S MAKE A SEQUEL! With way more blood, and more gruesome deaths!

I have play what seems like all of the Road Rash games. My favorite has always been Road Rash 2 on Sega Genesis (and in many ways, it still is). That classic soundtrack and the split-screen 2 player is awesome. However, I dug out my old Sega Saturn and grabbed a copy of Road Rash for it.

When the Nintendo 64 showed up on the scene, we got some great 3D platforming games. Super Mario 64, Conkers Bad Fur Day, Donkey Kong 64, etc. We also got a TON of racing games! That little analog stick on the controller worked great for racers, especially the futuristic racer, F-Zero X.
