Still play old games?

Burgertime was the bomb.

 

Its not that old, but I just broke out Final fantasy VII for old times sake.

 

This thread makes me wish I had a copy of Blades of Steel.

But I guess I'll settle for Streets of Rage 2, which, by the way, is also the bomb.

I've never owned an old console, but over the years there are very few games I've discarded for the PC over the years. I still have a few of the older games that I first played on PC...

 

Wolfenstein 3D

Eye Of The Beholder 1, 2 and 3

Lands Of Lore

Betrayal At Krondor

Ultima Underworld

Monkey Island 2 (can't play it because half the mojo wheel thing is missing)

Dark Forces

Doom 1, 2 and Final Doom

Heretic

Hexen

Take No Prisoners

Blade Runner

 

I've got some old copies of Pac Man, Space Invaders, Lemmings, Prince Of Persia and some others as well, somewhere.

 

I'm actually playing through Hexen II again right now - because I can't remember completing it. For Hexen, Heretic and Doom I use the engine mods for those games...Doom Legacy or JDoom, for example.

 

The bottom line is...I still fire up these games now and then, because they are still good games to play even today.

I remember when my brother lent that to me in '97...was one of the best point-and-click adventures I'd ever played. Great story, voice acting was kewl, and the fact it was even remotely linked to the film was a good enough reason to play it ^_^

 

Lemmings 2: The Tribes, I got for Amiga way back. Fantastic title, so enjoyable to play, it makes me wanna dig up the system again ^^ I also remember playing games like Operation Stealth and Trolls on the Amiga. Good times =]

 

Also, I know it's not that old, but I think Grim Fandango is worth a mention. Best graphic adventure. Ever. And only Lucasarts could come up with something like that:DIf you haven't played it, do at some point, it's well worth a look;)

That was not NES, that was for the Intellivision Gameing system,

 

Here is a picture of it:

However, if you still have a playstation, it is on this version of the arcade's greatest hits:

I beleive it was also available for the NES as I remeber playing it and never owned an Intellivision.

 

I still play the X-wing and tie fighter games on my PC...

I LOVE Old Games, I'm an avid fan of the Dark Forces Mod, and recently purchased the Sonic Mega Collection for the Game Cube, and I have the Sonic and Knuckles Collection on PC, (I had it on Mega Drive but sold it :()

 

I have countless ROMS and Emulators for all the great Systems.

 

I am going to reinstall Lemmings in a couple of days.

 

I have every Star Wars game for the PC aswell, and I still play them.

 

The game I haven't been able to get hold of though and play again is Sonic CD I was gutted when it wasn't on the Mega Collection :(.

 

Oh and I have bought the Microsoft Return and Revenge of Arcade Software packs.

 

I love nostalgia, I am the most nostalgic person I know.

 

I also love loads of old music and films (anyone heard of the original Star Wars trilogy.)

Aye, same here, though it's not the same as the Mega Drive version, I didn't get hooked on it so much:(

 

Damn, I need to get ahold of Lemmings 2 somehow, that was one of my favourite games, I miss playing it so much ;_;

Yeah thats true, do you know that if you have a computer with a processor over 1000 mhz, it plays super fast? So I can't play it anymore

 

The Game Cube version though is pretty addictive.

 

For Lemmings 2, how about getting a decent Snes Emulator which supports mouse control and use a ROM for that.

 

I got Lemmings for Windows 95 and Oh No More Lemmings, great games!

 

I also had the original MSDOS version aswell, that was cool.
