    Halo Reach or GTA 5... I still remember the first day I had GTA 5. The map was fresh and no online either! I did enjoy the online when it first came out. I don't play much anymore, but GTA is one of the games I'd love to go back to.

    Halo Reach was one of the best multiplayer experiences ever.

    I got into PC gaming after that, but i lost interest soon after. Maybe it's me getting older, but I miss those days when I could get into a game and play it for hours without a care in the world.

    I played Elite on my Acorn Electron. All 64K of it!

    Finally reached Elite status 1300 miles from the South Pole. I was serving on HMS Endurance at the time (Royal Navy Antarctic survey ship). 

    My Acorn was rigged up in our emergency generator compartment. It was like sitting in a fridge! Getting a 240v supply in there was almost a bigger challenge than becoming ‘Elite’.!

    Since Halo Reach is now out on PC, I had a blast playing through the single player again on Legendary - but multiplayer just isn't the same. Nothing quite compares to coming home from school and playing Halo 2 and 3 with all your friends.

    Worst game for me has to be "Micro Olympics" on the BBC Model B & Acorn Electron.
    Check this out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soucv6rbvuo
    It was completely unplayable!

    Best was "Elite" on the Acorn Electron.  Amazing considering the limitations of the device.

    Best games for me are Witcher III (huge fan of the books), Death Stranding (Kojima is the genius) and MGS series. 
    Also I've found old game «I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream» — voice actors are SO amazing! Plot is kinda weird, but I still love it.

    Resident Evil on PS groundbreaking at the time of release and nothing like it before 
    Half Life on PC hard to better at the time and still playable today.
    Modern Day Zelda Breath of the Wild is pretty perfect in every department .
    Lots of others I’ve played over the years but they would be my desert island games 👍
