Unfortunately it is really hard to find well maintained pinball machines.

Love both those. Spent many a lunch time winning free games on them.

I concur. I love tempest. Same with AIr Hockey.

I spent a whole summer vacation and all my allowance on this game the year it came out.

As for my picks:

Zork and all of the other Interactive Fiction got me hooked early. I loved them.
Kings Quest series was a revolution and my dad, sister and I would play for hours on his original IBM.

Legend of Zelda on the NES. I would play till I could not see, then go to bed with the song in my head and flashing hearts burned into my eyes.

Spy Hunter- Something about it had me hooked.

Adventure for the Atari 2600

And i could not forget the many nights at the Starcade playing TRON.

And that just makes me think of the old Holy Grail PC game. Truly terrible piece of software, but chock full of excellent absurdest fun.

FYI...

Dragons Lair is now available in a HD Blu-Ray version which is getting decent reviews.

As for the games:

I was a "world record" holder on Asteroids for very short time if at all with a score of 2.4Million

I was also a Tempest god thanks to the 40-free games buffer overflow hack.
