The Good Ol' Days of Gaming.

[gorgoth]

Remember when gaming was simple, when we didn't have to worry about our computers statistics, or the requirements and graphics for games? When they were just fun? Post yer favorite old games here, and well see what we think the best is :).

For me, my first game ever, DESCENT, then DESCENT 2. All I ever played, still have them, and they are the best. Then there was the expansion, DESCENT 2: Vertigo. I also thought Age of Empires was and is great, along with Descent Freespace which I just found in my friends basement and just beat. There was also Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 1 and 2, along with the other Jedi Knight game from way back. Damn those were great games. In fact, my freinds and I are building old P3 computers in my attic to play them over my new LAN network I put together. If anyone has a site where you can buy old computer parts like P3 Processors or SIMM RAM, or even old PCI or AGP video cards like a GeForce 2 or something, I'd really appreciate it. Hope this turns into a fun thread. :)

Well, I was thinking PC, but if we want to go console, I guess I liked Spyro (The first one) and of course Goldeneye (N64) and of course Super Smash Brothers (N64). Oh! The best old console games ever were Rush (N64) and Rush L.A. (N64). Anyone play those? And guys, please try to keep on topic on this off topic, I've seen what happens to some topics. :)

SSB is like the most amazing game ever. Melee was great, and as no one I know has a Wii, I can only hope I'll get to play Brawl sometime. W00t Solid Snake! Omg how could I forget!? This game isn't old at all, but it makes me feel nostalgic. Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. Love that game, after playing it I bought MGS:SoL for Xbox and rented a PS2 just to play MGS:SE. I'll probably end up renting a PS3 after a while to play MGS:GotP. I'm going to buy an Xbox 360-is there any thing like the Wii has where you can play old game on it? I'd need Xbox Live, but is it possible? Duke Nukem reminds me of Postal 2, which I hope no one here has been unlucky enough as to have played it. Just because it's fun doesn't make it right :P.

[darksora2323]

aww man melee pwns seriously, thats the only game that i have been playing for the past 6 years. Now thats what you call replay value. And i dont have a wii yet, but i dont want one until brawl comes out in Dec 3rd. And.................................SONIC FOR BRAWL

[gorgoth]

Lol, Snake will pwn Sonic in his cardboard box. C4RD804RD 80X PWN4G3! I hear the Wii is great in short uses, i.e. playing at a friends, but if you're buying for Brawl, hell, do it.

[The One]

BRAWL
Doesnt compell to my taste :P

[gorgoth]

Then you haven't played Melee enough. But it's only fun if you have like 3 controllers and get to pwn or be pwn'd with/by your friends.

[gorgoth]

Anyone here play DESCENT though? It was my first computer game and possibly still my favorite. The music rocks in that game too.

[darksora2323]

Lol, Snake will pwn Sonic in his cardboard box. C4RD804RD 80X PWN4G3! I hear the Wii is great in short uses, i.e. playing at a friends, but if you're buying for Brawl, hell, do it.

also im trying to save up for a wii right now, lol i for got that brawl is the main hit title for the wii, and when it comes out then wii's are really going to be sold out

[gorgoth]

Despite 15 minutes of google, I cannot find links to the original DESCENT site, maybe it's gone :(. Anyone play the game besides me?

[dontleave]

I can honestly say, with regards of your first post SC was the first game I ever bought, and never had to worry about specs, because it ran on my computer and I was completely ignorant of that information then.

Anyone who wants to experience a great game go here and download Freespace 2, completely legal and free. Make sure to download the overhaul for graphics (Although that defeats the purpose of this thread. Don't worry, I'm getting the overhaul)
EDIT:That link includes both retail game and overhaul. Have fun :).

[Shrubberyjsc]

Anyone play the game besides me?


I saw my cousin play it a long time ago. I gave it a shot.

SC is StarCraft.

[gorgoth]

Oh yeah StarCraft was fun. I remember playing it on my friends old iMac. Too bad Shrub, Descent was great.

[dontleave]

EDIT

Starcraft. Fool.

[gorgoth]

Lol. I appreciate it, but never played it enough to know that lol. W00t SC2! Hope it's good, though knowing blizzard it'l be p2p.

Terrans, the yellow-y electric guys, and the aliens that are all bubly and alien like. Starts with a K?

BACK ON TOPIC: Has anyone on these entire forums actually played DESCENT or am I the only one?!

[dontleave]

No, we only play DECENT games.

</chortle>

[gorgoth]

Good pun, if there is such a thing. But honestly, I wonder if anyone else has played it. It was dubbed a Doom clone, but if you play it you see that they really aren't any similarities. I also, unlike a lot of other people, don't really like doom. Ah well.

Doom 3 is the manliest game ever, if you haven't played it logic stands that you're a wussy!

LMAO.

Seriously disappointing. Yes, the graphics are lovely. The game, however, is tedious. One long procession of entering dimly lit rooms then waiting for the monsters to spawn or jump out of cubbyholes. Sure, the first couple times that zombies or imps jump out at you from the dark are exciting, but after the 30th time in an hour, it's just annoying. Unfortunately, that's also the entire game. I could kill things with a chainsaw, actually EVERYTHING easily with the chaisaw, which is riduclous. This game was just a huge rip off Half-Life: Oh no! We've been secretly experimenting with teleportaion! But instead of aliens the devil came out! They even put the stupid health chargers on the wall. And this is NOT scary. People who are afraid of this must cry during thunderstorms. Ooh! A zombie! Whack! Killed it with the flashlight. Monster! Boom! A single shot from the shottie. All you had to do was turn up your mouse speed and pretend you were playing and arcade shooter like Time crisis or something. Horribly lame and way to linear, this amped up game was very disapoining. And on the graphics, they were good, but the way they drew all the characters and messed with the lighting was really stupid looking.

Graf Blood was the Doom mod thing right? And omg the best games ever were Zelda! FOr gameboycolor and N64 like ocarina of time, majora's mask, and the one with the egg thing. ANyone remember it's name?

[Tobold]

first game i played was Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zak_McKracken_and_the_Alien_Mindbenders)

Descent 1 was so old it didn't have an intro sequence that was more than stills with a voice over.

[hooray for zombies]

perfect dark for the N64

[jaydig]

the first game i played a lot on PC was prolly Commander Keen, an ancient platformer by a new dev team named ID ....
as for consoles... I played Double Dragon on NES a fair amount. Being able to pick up shurikens, knives and chains etc. was cool (visions of super smash bros )Blood was the Doom mod thing right?
Blood was actually a mod of Duke Nukem 3D... it had alt. fires on all the weapons and a 1920's America setting. Some demon is taking over the world and your an undead cowboy with a pitchfork and a sawnoff shotgun (in close range it could blow a zombie's head into the air) Dual TommyGuns was sweet ..Suffice to say it was pretty awesome in its time, which can't honestly be said about Blood 2.
Relating to Doom3...
Seriously disappointing.........One long procession of entering dimly lit rooms then waiting for the monsters to spawn or jump out of cubbyholes.....This game was just a huge rip off Half-Life.......turn up your mouse speed and pretend you were playing (an) arcade shooter
I agree with everything except that it was a rip-off of HL2.... I WISH it was more like HL2!!! This game was a remake of the original with equally simple gameplay. I saw it for what it was when i played it and enjoyed it thoroughly despite some tedium. The add-on (ResOfEvil) had less monster closets and slightly better puzzles but they stooped to stealing Mr. Freeman's Gravity Gun and giving it to the 'Doom Guy'.

[gorgoth]

But D00m 3 did have the best boss battle evr, &quot;The Sarge&quot;:I liked the voices you heard b4 getting to him.

[Plankie]

Unreal. I cheated like crazy, always put on godmode, spawned all weapons and shit. I was too young to realize the fun in a challenge. Too bad I ruined it all.... I enjoyed it though.

Bit of year-plus necro-posting going on today. I guess the cries of &quot;Search you bastards!&quot; are working.

As far as &quot;old&quot; PC games go I remember I was into a couple of games; one called &quot;Alley Cat&quot; (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alley_Cat_%28video_game%29), (made in 1984, three years before I was born,) and another &quot;Paganitzu&quot; (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paganitzu), (more modern, made in 1991.) &quot;Captain Comic&quot; (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Comic), (1988,) was another favourite. My Dad's Amstrad computer was awesome. Good old pre-windows days.

Munkey, this thread was dead for a long time. I remember before this wonderful place had such novelties. Anyway, who the fuck cares about a quad post from a year ago? Descent still bests all these.

[Steve Cloud]

The SNES was my first gaming console and my first game for it was Plok. Goddamn, that was an awesome game and the bit where you play as his grandfather...brilliant.

[gorgoth]

I wish I shared in your nostalgia for Plok. Ima googleit.

EDIT:Plok looks sweet.

[lurk4dead]

banjo kazooie, smash bros, goldeneye, mario 64 and others, i'm to tired to think right now (FYI I only HAD AN N64)

Plok was a sleeper hit, great game, not very well known.

CONKERS!! N64 man that was the shit. I just played mario kart the other day and holy shit did it feel great.

[gorgoth]

I like the game art. Really good for SNES.

[Steve Cloud]

Its graphics are kind of 'meh' in-game. But goddamn, in the first stage you can pilot a motherfucking helicopter and as the game goes on you get &quot;presents&quot; that turn you into a badass motherfucker, like a guy with a blunderbluss. And a unique soundtrack.

Best game ever.

[gorgoth]

Okay, the blunderbuss seals the deal.

[Zeroboy]

Blood was the best game of the old times. Damn it scared the shit out of me! And the best part was shooting the zombies heads around... I remember there was a level that was in a stadium that as soon as the level started, a zombie came towards you and if you could cut it's head, you could shoot the head in the goals!

[REDSHARK_]

doom brings back nice memories, i have a soft spot for any game ID software spews out :)

Snake rattle and roll (NES)

Oh man that was awesome but very difficult. Very very difficult. I loved the sharks ... dip dip dip dip dipdipdipdipdip BANG!

[bumbousdude25]

Twisted Metal on PS1 was my first game ever... well, that I understood, anyway. I started playing Super Mario (NES) when I was like 2 and had no idea what I was doing lol. I can't even remember that, I just know from my parents telling me. Although of course I've played Mario many times since.

resident evil FTW!

Yes! The first RE game I played was Code: Veronica on PS2. Of course I didn't know any of the characters or story, but I thought it was really fun, and that was my first actual venture into zombie games. It obviously made an impression on me, since I own every RE game to date except for those crap offshoots (one of which was Survivor, and I did borrow it from a friend... and beat it in ONE HOUR... >.< lol).

Anyway, those were my experiences from &quot;the good ol' days of gaming.&quot; ;D

OW HOW I MISS BLOWING INTO CARTIDGES...

[arsis]

Let's see...Sonic, avp on pc and avp on the atari jaguar lol, avp2, quake(s), army men, mortal kombat, tekken, some star wars game on the pc that I thought was badass; I can't remember the name, flight simulators with a remote, it's hard to remember them all. We used to have an atari jaguar and we had a bunch of games for it. Then my dad sold it with all the games for $7. I'm pretty sure it was worth a few hundred...dumbass. OH yeh, dreamcast games! That one game where you aggressive skate around and spraypaint stuff, that was awesome. sonic on dreamcast was really fun. CRAZY TAXI!
twisted metal games, tony hawks pro skateboarder on n64, turok, mario, zelda, socom, gta1 and 2, god so many memories.
I'm only 18 so my gaming doesn't go back too far.

If I could ASCii a dinosaur, I totally would.

[armored cow]

Lol I started reading the thread from the beginning, not realizing it was from 2007, because of the Aug date.
Anyway, I always liked me some good ol' Streets of Rage 2, and of course Mario 64. Bomberman 64 was really fun too.

[Shrubberyjsc]

Also, have you noticed all games from the old days are WAY harder than the newer ones?

They had virtually zero playtesters, so they tested their own games. This meant that they were always playing the levels, and would get really good at it over the time it took to make the game. That's why those old games were so amazingly hard.

[globalenjoi]

If you haven't played Startropics on NES, you should. I played that shit way more than any mario game at the time. I liked it more than Zelda.
http://www.videogamequest.com/NESArchive/StarTropics.JPG
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1f/StartropicsMaxie.png/180px-StartropicsMaxie.png

Banjo Kazooie. That game was fucking awesome, and so was the sequel Banjo Tooie. Both of those games are on my all-time favorites list. In my opinion they were better than Mario 64.
http://masterrpg.net/upload/images/descargas/normal/4/BanjoKazooie_qjpreviewth.jpeg
http://www.banjokazooie.info/images/banjokazooie4.jpg

And Mario Kart 64... I have yet to meet a person who doesn't like Mario Kart 64. This game was always a blast, especially if you had a few friends to play with. Definitely a great game.

I'm not gonna say much about this one. If you played it, you know that it was freakin' sweet.
http://i3.ebayimg.com/02/c/05/b4/93/a9_8.JPG

N64 had a shitload of good titles. Playstation did also, but my mom sold my Playstation to get an N64, so I never really owned many games =P But I can say that the first three Crash Bandicoot games rocked (1,2, and Warped), as did the first Spyro the Dragon game. I was also a huge fan of the Tomb Raider games, though I will admit that they scared the shit outta me at the time lol.

[gorgoth]

Dude, Rogue Squadron for PC remains to this day the only game I could not beat. It was like the most ridiculously hard game ever, between the Millennium Falcon/Death Start part and the Tie Fighters in that canyon, damn.

[globalenjoi]

Yeah, the game was pretty damn hard. But it was an AMAZING game. I loved every torturous moment of it lol.

[dontleave]

Rogue Squadron... Damn nostalgia.

Geez... now my post reminded me of another moment like that back in high school.
My friend's girlfriend walks up to us, mid conversation, and she hears &quot;It's too big for the hole though, and I didn't wanna force it in.&quot;
... Ah the look on her face. But we were talking about ear gauges.

Rollercoaster Tycoon

That's considered old? Oh crap...I remember when it first came out.

How bout some good ol' Donkey Kong Country? Those games were a blast, and my favorite is Donkey Kong Country 3.

And can't forget about Goldeneye 007. Not only was the single player fun, the mutliplayer was an absolute awesome experience, though sometimes frustrating (goddamn proximity mines...)

Anyone else play Super Double Dragon? I had Double Dragon II on NES, but the SNES game Super Double Dragon was much better imo. I spent countless hours playing that with my cousin.

I loved a little game called Turok: Dinosaur Hunter as well. The game really kinda scared the hell outta me at the time. It felt oh so good to blast a raptor in the face with a shotgun, though. Turok 2 was also excellent, bringing even more gore and the always entertaining Cerebral Bore.

Here is one of the best zombie games ever created. Me and my sis would spend tons of time playing this game, and for good reason.

This one isn't very old, but it's old enough. I think it was one of those great games that noone played, sorta like Psychonauts or Beyond Good &amp; Evil. Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. That game was freaky as shit, but also fun as hell.

I've heard about that. Sick shit happens all the time. Like the characters' heads falling off for no reason, and the crash message that turns out to be a trick. The latter is seriously twisted.

[globalenjoi]

Yeah. And sometimes, when you enter a room, freaky shit will happen. Blood runs down the walls and stuff. You hear people scream, you see things. It's a badass game. The story is really neat too, but the whole sanity thing is one of the most creative things I've seen in a game.

Chrono Trigger is a great game, and one of the few take-turns RPGs that I can stand. I'm glad they are porting it to DS, though I wish they were remaking it.
