18. The Legend of Zelda (NES)

The Legend of Zelda was one of those games which took me forever to beat because it was so hard, yet I couldn't put it down. Of course now a days I can beat the thing in like 7 hours, but back then, this was the classic RPG game for me. I was never into Final Fantasy or stuff like that, so Zelda was my FF. From the catchy theme song which I'd end up humming along with, to the great puzzles and design, Zelda is a classic in my mind and I'm glad I played it.
