Re: Old Video Games that are Awesome
Old games I still play occasionally.
Xcom UFO the original 1994. Star Wars Supremacy( Rebellion) in US, 1996 or so. Goldeneye on N64 was the GOAT! |
Re: Old Video Games that are Awesome
Uncle Festers Quest. Nintendo.
Abe. Mega Drive. Shadow Dancer. Mega Drive. Urban Jungle/Strike. Mega Drive. Some of my old fave games. I have the PS4 now but hardly play it. |
My favorite game is CONTRA!

Re: Old Video Games that are Awesome
Samurai Shodown on an arcade cabinet is a better than great time. I should probably play the sequels at some point. It's fun to annoy whoever your playing with by choosing Charlotte and jabbing them with a rapier over and over again.

Re: Old Video Games that are Awesome
Contra was great. I don't know where my copy went to though :(

I need to get a piece for my Atari 2600 and then a complete Sega Master System again. I feel like Nintendo's were the Macs and Sega was the PC. Not sure exactly why. Maybe the pimp status of NES compared to the underdog, but more colorful SMS.

Rocket Knight Adventures for the Genesis also is pretty damned fun.

In Europe, Sega and Nintendo were pretty neck and neck and home computers seemed just as popular as dedicated consoles. When the NES was apparently king, I was rockin' an Atari 520 ST and moved straight from that to a Sega Mega Drive. |

Re: Old Video Games that are Awesome
I haven't played many video games since we got an Atari in '81 or '82. I was all about Frogger and Pitfall at the time, and would occasionally break out the dial controls to play Night Driver, oooohhh :cool:

Was your ST like this, as far as advanced games. If this is really 1991, I had no idea the graphics and render could be so well done.

Yeah, the ST was great. It and the Amiga were powerful machines back then, with everything on 3.5' disc.

Re: Old Video Games that are Awesome
Yeah, The Blue Danube has been a staple of the soundtrack since the game's original versions. It's so iconic that you could probably dub it over a Star Wars dogfighting scene and it'd remind you of 2001.
