Does anyone remember the -really- old computer games, for the Amiga? I really miss Fire & Ice, and Flimbo's Quest. Man, those games were such fun when I was little, I'd love to be able to play them again now. Only problem is, would it shatter the illusion?
You know, do you reckon that something you remember that fondly is gonna let you down if you try to revisit it?
yeah....its never as good as you remember it to be.....well imo it isnt
check out this site

the plug for mine broke and they didnt make them anymore so we got dir of it....
I dont remember very many games for it.....there was one in a castle and you had to make your way across the screen and there were soldiers with spears trying to get you....cant remember what it was called...
i also remember skate or die, arkanoid.....thats about it....oh and there was one where youwere in a jungle....a bit like metal slug....

I play emulated games on my computer from Nintendo and SNES.
im playing fire and ice right now.....its actually a well cool game.....
i used to love the Spectrum ZX i had some sick games, spy hunter, pitfall, gaxxon, skool daze etc. so many classics
I bought a mega drive off a guy in work for 10 pounds :)
I used to love Mortal Kombat!
i recently got a snes and a megadrive, i completed Sonic on the first go but it has always been my favourite game, but the most enjoyable game is mariokart nothing better than a 2 player match mode on bowsers castle 1, me and my bro play it everytime we can, weve had a rivalry for about 10 years now!!!
yeah. super nintendo was my favorite system. i used to pwn classic RPG's like earthbound, chrono trigger... those, and first person shooters for other systems like quake, doom, duke nukem...
i have an archive of games for NES, SNES and genesis everywhere...
the old old zelda for nintendo was soooo cool!
and the old black and white prince of persia!!
i miss old games too!
im thinkin of gettin an N64 it had some good games - iss soccer, wave race, mariokart 64 and goldeneye - all shit hot games
::sigh:: remember the old like zork games where they would just tell you things like "you pick up the match" then you type in light the torch. i miss them, i also have just ablout evry old system up to the nes. intellevison,atari,colicovision, pong. i still have the origonal systems with at least 10 games apeice.
I used to have NESticle. You need to get River City Ransom for Nintendo. If you can get two players, that game is HILARIOUS. I never threw out my old Nintendo games - I have almost sixty of them. They're a bitch to play, though, as all Nintendo heads know of the blow/tap habit in order to get a game to work. :rolleyes:Quote:

Secret of Mana.. Legend of Gaia.. Breath of Fire.. Actraiser.. Zelda: A Link to the Past.. Lagoon (very difficult game).. I can't remember them all. There were so many great RPG titles I loved for the SNES.
Haha.. great memories from Duke Nukem. I'd stay up all night in junior high playing modem games with my best friend. We'd download homemade maps, make our own, and we had another friend who was pretty good at modding. If it wasn't Duke Nukem, it was Starcraft, Warcraft 2, Diablo, or Shadow Warrior (Duke Nukem ripoff ;x).LMAO. Another awesome game I was playing around junior high. Used to turn on turbo mode (get it from beating the silo really fast) and big head mode. 006 > 007! :cool:Quote:

lufia used to come with a t-shirt in a boxed set, man... the DAYS, dude. :thumbsup:
by the way, i don't think i'll ever accept shadow warrior as a true standalone game. it was like a fucking 'duke nukem ninja plugin' for god's sake. blood was written on the same engine, though...
i play doom and doom II, they kick ass when your high :D
I PWN EARTHBOUND!Quote:

SensiRide, you're my Hero :). And yes, Alex the Kidd was awesome on the SMS... though I absolutely loved Phantasy Star.
Aaw you're sweet BMan :)
Sonic ruled my world for a year or two though, along with Mortal Kombat, Michael Jacksons Thriller and Ailisia Dragoon
I cant believe I still own a mega drive :D
Yeah, sonic did rule my life for a few years... especially Sonic 2.... I played those games for hours on end.... Mortal Kombat was cool too... I don't know about Michael Jackson's Thriller though... It's hard to listen to a man who likes sleeping in the same bed with little boys.... lol. I sold my sega master system (megadrive) about a year ago on ebay when i was strapped for cash.... i wish i would have kept it.... but i do have the games on my computer if i ever really wanted to play them lol.
finish him lol only learnt one finishing move knew alot of the specials though get over here lol
Haha I'd totally forgotten about that. I remember one stage was underwater but thats about it-was that the game he went into the shops to buy stuff? or was that marioQuote:
