Guest Marney-1 Report post Posted July 28, 2012 Tetris on the GameBoy. When the GameBoy came out this was the game that came with it, linking up for 2 player with a friend was tense. Most lines I ever got was 209, they were just dropping like rocks, impossible to react on the buttons quick enough. Prince Of Persia was a good game too. I remember the reviews raving about it being 24 fps or something. We were in awe! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted July 28, 2012 Dunno about you guys, but i was a megadrive/genisis kid. i had a snes, but was always on my megadrive games, as they always seemed more gritty and gory... I played Mortal Kombat more than street fighter and other mediocre mash-em-ups. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dF8gWIPz0WQ Alein 3 was badass for it's time. Such a tough game, but epic: Alien Storm was pretty awesome too as I recall. It was half way between Streets of Rage and Strider. This was a bit of a weird one, but a game i loved none-the-less: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Marney-1 Report post Posted July 28, 2012 The nostalgia in this thread is amazing, flashbacks of sitting in mine or a mate's bedroom on a rainy day playing videogames. If it wasn't raining we'd always be playing football or having Stand By Me style adventure's but yeah, it rained a lot. Must have spent weeks playng Sim City on my SNES. Build roads, rail tracks, cheap coal fired power stations, put taxes up, create more expensive and cleaner power stations, watch your popularity as mayor drop because taxes were too high, areas becoming derelict and population declining due to forgetting to provide sufficient commuter routes for people to get to work. Sounds boring as shit but so was the rain outside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Marney-1 Report post Posted July 28, 2012 i can't count the hours i wasted playing sim city... Apparently there's a new one on the way next year or 2014, heard rumblings of CryEngine being used too. Just hope it's on console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted July 28, 2012 sim city 2000 might be my favorite version, but i clearly remember playing the original on the super nintendo... it was a major accomplishment when you could get neighbor lots to combine into one mega lot...

narcolepsy 581 Report post Posted July 28, 2012 At the height of my collection I had: Master System (1 and 2) Mega Drive (1 and 2) Sega Saturn (1 and 2) Sega Dreamcast. NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube Xbox, Xbox 360. PS1 (Original and Slim) PS2. Random: Vectrex, C64. Vic 20, Amstrad CPC, PC Engine, amongst some other stuff. I guess that's most notable. The variation isn't that big, but I had lots of the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Marney-1 Report post Posted July 29, 2012 Including the ones I had regular access to with my mates; Atari 2600, Coleco Vision, ZX Spectrum 48, Spectrum 48, Commodore 64, Atari ST, Amstrad 464, Amiga 500, NES, GameBoy, Atari Lynx, SNES, PS1, PS2, PS3. Never touched the Sega's - we were kind of like Nintendo fanboy's. LOL Remember my mate got a half meg upgrade for his Amiga 500 and it was a kind of disc drive thing the size of a house brick.

Donkey Kong 64, Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, Conker's BFD, I must have clocked hundered's of hours on all of them.
