Yea once you got the Death Ray you could fucking own anything.

More recently in the old school games, during high school I lost a good chunk of my adolscence to these:

Diablo (PC)
Age of Empires 1 and 2 (PC)
Goldeneye (N64)
Perfect Dark (N64)
F-Zero X (N64)
THPS2 (PSX)
Half Life (PC)

LMAO, I remember when I was a kid a first played Duke 2 I thought the introduction was the most amazing thing ever. "Im Back!"

Did anyone ever play Raptor?

ah yeh, raptor was also cool, used to cheat by collecting the shields then dying and collecting more and more shieldS

You, sir, are a genius

Leisure suit Larry 1-3 was also good clean fun......

 

[jumb]

Clean.... yeah

Player: "strip"
Player: "get in bed"

later:

"Game over! You're Dead! You should've used protection"

Good clean fun.

And I also used to play Hugo 1: House of Horrors.

I didn't know how to get past the dog until yesterday. lol
Now I'm still stuck on the mummy part. I can't save my game so I have to keep starting over and over again.

Isn't it amazing how much games have changed (visually) only during our lifetime?

I love the Abe games.

 

[D.Larie]

I forgot to mention the Nintendo games of my childhood.

Donkey Kong 1,2 and 3 were the best!
Everything from:
Swinging from those tree things
Those great mine cart levels *GREAT*
The bonus levels where you ride on an animal and get as much points as possible.
Turning into a rhino, emu etc.

And Super Mario World on SNES.

 

[pam17]

All the Abe's were excellent - all those stupid noises he would make.
Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat are two classics.
Hugo - that weird looking alien thing.
Earthworm Jim
Wolfenstein 3D - anyone got Return to Castle Wolfenstein? It's pretty good, only problem is now it has to compete with Medal of Honor, CS etc.
Wacky Wheels also cool.
Pacman - major 80's.

 

[SashatheMan]

its funny how old games when they just came out were thought as the best games available, now u can get them on mobile. eg prince of persia and there are afew others

 

[Grobus]

Thats progress I guess. The upcoming handhelds are more powerful in most areas than the consoles of last generation.

 

[pete87]

lemmings, leisure suit larry games, prince of persia, wolfenstein 3d, doom 2, etc are all pretty cool oldschool games.

ah, nostalgia!
