Damn did I have an epic game of Madden today.
So it was fourth quarter. I'm down by 14. There's 3:00 mins on the clock. I just scored. He has the ball.
PLAY: Runs the ball - fumble - I recover it.
I'm on their 30 or so. Couple of quick pass plays and I score at 2 minute warning.
Score's 35-28. I have 1 timeout. Highly unlikely game. I onside kick it, wildly. It bounces very wildly, goes very high and lands 13 - 15 yds off, I manage to recover it!!
Again, down the field I go, not using a timeout since I want to score and go to overtime. But I get a big play and score fast. There's a minute left.
He gets the ball. Runs it. 10 yds. - 15 secs. Runs it. 10 yds. -15 secs. There are 38 seconds left. Runs it, FUMBLES - I RECOVER!!!
So I throw 2 long ones. Use a timeout when I get a lucky catch, bout midfield. Bout 20 secs left.
I do a shorter 30 yd play. I'm in the pocket - he does not rush at all - all coverage - right as I'm finally about to go down I hit a random button and whatdoya know, Isaac BRUCE catches it at their 20 yd line. There's only 15 friggin seconds. I'm not thinking straigth and don't try to stop / spike the clock. I flip the Playbook, select Field Goal, 10 secs, so nervous, and basically I had 3 seconds to aim and fire. Made it.
38-35 I won.

EXCITEBIKE, c'mon people its original
Super Tecmo Bowl... best foggin football game ever made... you can all keep your Madden's.
To add onto Ramned's story..
My bro and I were playing NHL Faceoff 2001, Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final. We tie it up late in the game, then proceed to 9, yes 9, overtime periods before we finally score the game winner.
Ah, the good ole days...
Civilization.... (any one but 3) for loosing days and days of my life....
Half life or Halo.... Its a tough call
Mario 64 and more recently Mario Galaxy (sunshine wasn't great)
Fallout and Fallout 2 are by far and away the most entertaining RPG's ever
Mario Kart, Mario Party, Mario Soccer... Any multiplayer Mario game.... Seriously Mario features so heavily in this list simply because Loosing at them is nearly as enjoyable as winning..... If you have 12 friends, a game cube and mario soccer.... Plus a few slabs of beer... You'll make a very entertaining night of it.....
