I'm currently between games. But VirtuaVerse just came out, so that's what I'll be playing pretty soon.

As for childhood games I want to reminisce about... maybe one quite a bit later in my life, one from 19 years ago: Anachronox. It's one of my all time favorite games and every year I wish Tom Hall and the rest of the team are able to either remake the first one and/or create the sequel to tie up the story.
Anachronox has a lot going for it: an interesting and interactive world, story, and characters; witty writing. JRPG action is not my favorite gameplay style, but Tom&Team even made that fun.

And of course Tom had to post this yesterday:

But if I really have to go back all the way to childhood, then it's obviously Little Big Adventure. Again a game with an interesting, mysterious, and interactive world that you could explore. I really enjoy games where exploring and taking in the world is part of the game rather than merely being a set piece. So games like Unreal, all of BethSoft's RPGs (except for Oblivion), ... are really my thing.
