There are so many games that I loved that I can't play any more
To name just a few:
Rayman, Harvest Moon: Back to nature, Rat Attack and MediEvil.
Mostly PS1 games that I've lost over the years. What games from you childhood to you miss?

A PS2 isn't hard to find. I still have both my PS1 and PS2. But I've lost nearly all of my old games

Super Mario World, I played that game all the time, and Super Mario 64, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time, GoldenEye, Mario Kart 64, and a bunch of other Nintendo games, I only played Nintendo games when growing up.

I really gotta figure out where my stepbrother hid his Playstation...
Oh, and the first Rollercoaster Tycoon. I'm not entirely sure, but that might be the first PC game I ever played. Or at least the earliest one I remember.
@Hat: You sold your PS2? Dude, you don't sell a PS2.

I sympathize with Harvestmoon, i only ever completed one, but i think i got 100%.
But i have no Idea what possessed me to marry popuri
Ahhh...Populous, I'm so sorry for messing up your disk, I really am...
And Age of Mythology was one of my first games ever, I loved it so much i think i played it for 5-7 years straight. And i still have my copy, full, good condition.

I could never get into the Jax & Daxter games, which is weird since I wasted hours on the various Ratchett & Clanks. :\
Was missing BG&E, satisfied that nostalgic craving though.
Now I've moved onto FFX, can't emulate, no PS2.
My only hope is that they bring it out on PSN.
But I don't think they do that with PS2 games?

Nope. I think they will end up doing it eventually, but not as of this moment.
Anyway, there isn't really any game that I used to play that I can't play now. I was lucky enough to be able to keep all games and consoles.

For some very odd reason, Sony only built a number of PS3s with backwards capability(the ability to play PS2/PS1 games).
What's BG&E?

Beyond Good and Evil, I'm guessing.
Also, all PS3's play PS1 games. They cut hardware PS2 emulation from their cheaper models to make them...well, cheaper. They're still free to do software emulation. And that's enough from me on that. :p

Odd world
Sonic pre-3D
most N-64 games
Viper Racing(great for everything, but racing)
Kirby pre-3D
Diablo
Starcraft 1
Any Nintendo game that required a cartridge(which I guess covers Kirby/N-64)

One of my first games was Jazz Jackrabbit! I loved that game! Also Rayman, but I could only play that game at my cousin's, because I didn't have a PS

I miss no childhood game. Probably because if it's good enough, I play it. Despite being old and childish.

You, sir, just repeated my entire childhood back to me. And for that, you rock.
I really miss the pre-N64 times, though, when you had Sega and SNES. In my opinion the Super Mario games for that are still the best out there. But the one game that will always and forever be the staple of my childhood? The Oregon Trail. Honestly: best. Game.
Ever.

You people are making me feel old, naming PS2 stuff as part of your "childhood."
My list would be too long to complete, since I played tons of freeware games, games at other people's houses, and lots of other cheapies, but I've spanned games from just about every system back to the C64 and Atari.
