anyone into retro gaming?

Does an N64 count as retro? Dusted my'n off not so long ago and played goldeneye, best game that's ever been made

Moon Cresta was my all-time favourite. It was a type of space invaders format but they peel off and swoop down on you. You can dock a single firing ship onto another to give more firepower. 3 ships together possible.
Think it was made by Namco. ?

2nd favourite... Outrun
3rd... Paperboy.
4th... Pitfall (Atari)

All classic games.

Most people from Swansea and New Tredegar. Only now Daley Thompsons Decathlon has come out on the ZX Spectrum.

brilliant. shaking the joystick back n fore like f**k to do the 100ms, and having to do the same but pressing the fire button to do the f*cking hurdles!!

i used to have a commodore 64, loved loading the cassette for an hour only for it not to load

and this^ many times....


had a commodore plus 4 first, then the c64 laser gun pack... bought a commodore amiga 500 after that. champ manager was always the best then..

the games were just addictive and class..

1/ paperboy,
2/outrun
3/ chase hq
4/ bubble bobble 2 player!
5/ double dragon
6/ kick start 2
7/ rambo
8/ wwf wrestling
9/ turtles
10/chuckie egg
11/ pitstop
12/ bombjack
13/ choplifter

track and field was like that where you had to press 2 buttons back and forth and it'd kill your fingers so the trick was to use a pen lid and flick it back and forth really quick.

Anyone remember the old "Chicken" machines? 10p, the chicken would lay an egg and you got some crappy toy? Get the bottom of one of the eggs, back and forward over the buttons and you could smash every world record easily...

Toe Jam and Earl, Road Rash (motorbike one where you beat them with a chain), Double Dragon, De Cap Attack

All class.

Had loads of games through my years on this earth from zx spectrum to Xbox 360. Some of my all time tags though. Desert strike. Toe jam an earl . Road rash. Shinobi . Altred beast. Worms. Turtles game for the NES. Goldeneye. Gran tourism 2. Final fantasy 7. ISS pro snes. Ghostbusters and some NFL game for the Atari. Duck hunt. Streets of rage. Golden axe. Loads more to mention. There was this one game for the megadrive called warmonger which I thought was epic.

Double dragon was the best game ever..

I've just been playing the original Silent Hill on PSOne. Still quite creepy.

just won castle of illusion on ebay

thought of a few more, space harrier, r-type, operation wolf. I think the sounds from the loading screen of the old spectrum 48k inspired acid music

Classic Mario, Legend of Zelda, Worms, Sonic, Golden Eye... this was my childhood!

Just to let you all know you can get emulators for your pc that can run images of any game for pretty much any console. Google it to find out more

flashback was a revolution in new style platform games. the movement of the character was brilliant at the time.

Flashback was class, another coin op that was remade for spectrum with ground breaking player movement was 'strider'
