[Editor's note: Kif talks about the Amiga and Mega Drive 2 for his contribution to this month's Monthly Musings. -- CTZ]

My venture into the world of videogames started oddly I guess. When I was a kid, my grandad owned an Amiga, and while I was plonked in front of the TV watching God knows what (American football and wrestling according to my mum, which is kinda weird I guess), he would do what he did on there.

So one day I go round to my grandparents house, and he's playing a game. And instead of minding his own business, he asks me to come and watch. I sit near the screen, watching the blue and green pixels move across the screen aimlessly while my grandad clicked the mouse frantically. And sure enough, his clicking led the blue and green pixels to the other side of the screen where they disappeared into obscurity, and a distorted "Yippie!" could be heard through the speakers in all it's monotone glory. That was the day I was introduced to Lemmings. More after the jump.

Gaming under the influence: Top 10 drunk multiplayer games photo

Drinking while gaming is such a stupid thing to do, and yet I know most people this site will have tried it. It's a match made in heaven when it comes to entertaining. But playing games drunk on your own is depressing and sad, only comforted by the fact that no one will ever know (Not even yourself if you put enough liquor inside you).

So, the only real choice when it comes to drunk gaming is to invite some buddies over, crack open a few cans and get your system of choice going! Here is a list of top games to play drunk with friends. Feel free to try these out.
