PC-HAngover Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Ok what do you think is the best old school game.. I mean like mario for the NES and stuff like that. I am going to vote for the original Zelda. That game was the shiznit in its day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAnChO Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Naaa remember Frogger, I think they made it for console and in arcade game form.. it was soo sweet i played it for hours. kinda before my time I think it came out in 1980. I still have fond memories of playing it for hours at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[TMX]EdMaxx Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Tank. It came out after Pong, somewhere around 1974-1975. If you walked around on the carpet and built up a good static charge, you could shock the game and it would give you a credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[COD]1HellUVAShot Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Mine would probably be Contra for NES. I used to play that game for days at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[COD]1HellUVAShot Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 I don't know it could be Castlevania instead, that is a tough one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBowy Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Contra, and for some odd reason I can STILL remember the (the D-word) cheat-code for that game. up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, a, b, a, b, select, start Anybody else remember that? I can't believe after all these years it's still so fresh in memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We thought tank was a real break through when compared to pong. And yes, I did own a pong box. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimBowy Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 My Favorite Computer Game of All Time: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II I've spent more time playing that game in my lifetime than any other game.... Nothing is better than it, almost 6 years after it came out and I still stop by just to check on the old community. I hope the MSN Gaming Zone never removes support for this game or... It will die =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid Posted August 28, 2003 Report Share Posted August 28, 2003 I remember asking mom and dad for 5 bucks when we went to the mall so I could drop coinage on Galaga, Tron, Donkey Kong, Defender, Joust... and trying to shoot the torpedo down the hatch in that Star Wars game. For home use though, my parents opted for an Intellivision...when everyone else had Atari. It sucked because there was about only one other dude around (out of 50) that had one. While Atari freaks were swapping games, I had to save my allowance to buy those $#@^ I'vision games. Ah, the early '80's. What a fine time to be alive and young...

Junior Posted August 28, 2003 Report Share Posted August 28, 2003 I swear i could beat Super Mario Bros. 3 in less than 4 hours. and Super Mario Bros. in about an hour and a half. My all time Fav has to be Super Mario World for the SNES. And Alien Vs Predator for the Atari Jaguar, the sounds effect in that game kicked ass for it's time. But i still miss Space Invaders for the Atari. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old_Man Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 1906 actually!!! Played in the mid 70's. It was cool back then. Still has a nastalgia about it. nothing like game of today! Thank goodness the asteroids could not shoot back! Bad enough the alien spacecraft did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAnChO Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Even I remember playing that and for some reason always getting slaughtered. I could never make it very far because of those damned space craft that would attack in seemingly larger and larger groups. Regardless it one of the all time greats.
