Any one here play any old school games (1980-1990 era consules)

Hellcat · 04-23-06, 08:53 PM

held on to my NES until '98 when it finally failed, been playing the SNES since it's release. Amazing the SNES still works 100%, nothing beats the rush of Star Fox

yea starfox was good

I still have my old Atari 520ST and Silent Service, Their Finest Hour, Oids and WizBall to play on it.

I had to vote NO, though, as it's been several years since I actually got it out and played any of those.

Still play the old intellivision every now and again, some sega.

PLay the occasional Text based rpg and a very occasional blast of stuff like Elite and Lords of Midnight on a Speccy Emulator. Them were the days...sigh.

I remember way back when you got free games with computer magazines - only problem is that they were 50 pages of code at the back of the mag and you had to program them in yourself!

I have SNES I still play regularly. I never got into the new systems. MY college roommate had an Xbox and a Gamecube and I just could never handle the controls very well(but I can hold my own on a PC with a keyboard, go figure). Still have a working atrai 2600 at my grandparents house as well as one of these:

Yehu

I often play Snake, Battle Of Midway (yea the old top down one) and mortal combat...when I'm not playing brand new games (half often-ish)

I still have my old Atari, but I never use it any more.

I do, however, still play the same tabletop miniatures games I've had since 1977.

d@rk51d3 · 10-19-07, 05:43 PM

Play all the old consoles and pc's on my PSP. And recently picked up an old fluoro mini-tabletop u-boat game. 1 Player plays as the destroyer, the other side plays the u-boat. Made by Namco-Bandai, picked it up off ebay for $10.

O God this has to be hard. I remember the Early games like Centipedia or the milli version. And who could remember missle command 92 verision. i feel very old inside and think i need a cane.

Rampage was another classic and i loved to attack NYC. Pong is he oldest to date and loved it even though i played the PC vesion with the old grphics.

Atari 2600 was my first then the Sega Mega Drive which I still go on from time to time but no new modern one on the grounds of cost.
