BY MELISSA LYNNE: Man, I love modern games. Cutting edge graphics, motion-captured cut scenes, and action that could have been torn from a Hollywood blockbuster. But every now and then, a sense of nostalgia pulls me back to the classics, the games that laid the foundation for the gaming industry as we know it today and that lead to me falling in love with gaming.
Here are 10 classic retro games that have stood the test of time, providing that sometimes old is indeed gold.

The first PlayStation is home to an array of iconic video games that went on to define the sheer significance of this console.
I think from a historical perspective I would change Spyro for Grand Turismo. It's the franchise that made the PS1 look like an absolute unit. Other than that, I can't argue with the rest when it comes to games that defined the PS1.
And to be honest, there should be space for Tekken 3, Wipepout and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater in order to round out the PS1 identity as the machine to own at the time.
With Tomb Raider 2, Silent Hill, Symphony of the Night, Tenchu, and Soul Reaver as backup contenders.
