I don't know about you guys, but I like to plug-in to the Old-School classics just as often as the new ones. What are your favorites, and if you're hardcore like me, what are you playing ATM? For me - CastleVania IV for the Super Nintendo Shadow Dancer - The Legend of Shinobi for the Sega Genesis Dune II for the PC Sonic and Knuckles for the Sega Genesis Donkey Kong Jr. for the Atari 7800 Just to name a few. Post your favorites, discuss them...that's what it's here for! The Señor
Not going to post sexy classic pictures because I have way too many pictures to post and/or I'm not playing any classics at the moment. I remember playing Sonic 3 and Knuckles and Sonic and Knuckles to death though. I got all the Chaos emeralds for each character and their uber form. Hyper Sonic was insanely fast! Loved it. I recently fired up Mega Man X3 for kicks on ZSNES. I got bored though :lol:
I knew you'd be the first, NS...you appreciate the ROOTS! w00t! I've beaten the game fully as well...Hyper Knuckles is my favorite. Smash into the walls and BOOM!!!! All enemies dead! I posted the pristine pics of yesteryear to remind some of the younger, less informed members of the quality that is old-school gaming.
Alone in the Dark Duke Nukem 3d Leisure Suit Larry Police Quest Space Quest King's Quest There's also, Doom 1 and 2... and Blood, dunno if that counts though
Hell yeah...Alone in the Dark creeped me the hell out when I was younger...I played that game until my eyes swelled shut! Keep it coming, guys!
More random retrogaming: I catch myself playing the 1942 vertical shooter games a lot as well. UN Squadron was also a great game and still is. Games these days rarely test the reflexes and amount of concentration required in games such as these vertical/horizontal scrolling shooters! R-Type 3 was frickin hard! Thank goodness, they gave you unlimited continues. Another classic horizontal shooter is Metal Slug.
Kirby's Dreamland for NES Contra(all 3) for NES Metal Slug 3 for NeoGeo(re-ripped for XBox last year :w00t: )
My son inherited all my old classic games, we still play quite a bit of Streetfighter together. Also loved the Mario 1, 2, & 3 for the NES. How about Toejam and Earl, anyone remeber that classic?
System Shock 2: System Shock 1: Commander Keen 4 I know, not too retro, but still, some awesome old games.
I often go over to my parents to fire up Descent .... LOL on thier 200 Mhz Intel MMx gateway pc that still has lifetime support ... heeee
