Old school / old games
    #23211571 - 05/10/16 07:11 PM (7 years, 10 months ago)

Anyone out there actively play old games for any system ?

I honestly enjoy them more then a lot of new games. I've played all the top games in the past 5 or 6 years, and other then elder scrolls, I pretty much hate the vast majority of them.

Now I'm talking line old msdos games, old floppy games, anything like pre 2005, etc. Like there's this one risk knock off, called Isle wars, for dos, horrible graphics, but damn the ai is extremely challenging, and I can spend hours on this game.

Doom 2 multiplayer is still the best FPS ever.

The only old games I would constantly replay is mario kart 64, donkey kong 64, or pokemon crystal version.

That's all I play. SNES forever. You ever play the original DOS Prince of Persia? Fucking glorious. The SNES one has extra levels and stuff, but the original is still somehow better.

It's always hard to detach the nostalgia element, but I genuinely think games were a lot more interesting before specific genres had been stringently defined and any given game had to be somewhat original for anyone to give a shit about it.

I agree. I look through the titles of some old dos games, and pre NES games, and you are right.

Alot if my old titles have names that seem to have nothing to do with the game itself. Others do. But there are some great gems out there.

I got a Japanese copy of Final Fight 3 just to pretend I was playing Streets of Rage. FF3 is probably a better game, but Streets of Rage was the shit back in the day.

Also legend of Zelda link to the past has to be the most entertaining game ever produced. I've replayed it hundreds of times and every time just as fun as the last

The red clothes look stupid, though. Boycott them.

I cannot believe someone actually made a game called Street Rod. That sounds like a euphemism for raping people.

Been playing mostly Diablo 2 for my old school game choice lately, little Starcraft Broodwar, but on the reason mainly because my brother and I spent probably more time on that game than any other.

Been playing the mod for D2 called Eastern Sun, (newest ver.) and continuing/finishing off the build for my dead brothers last character in his honor. It's an Assassin class. It's actually able to slay Uber Diablo, got to do it successfully the first time today. It takes a more tactful play-style IMO/IME

:nerd: :3dglasses:

I also play classic Vanilla D2, and another mod called Median, 2 different versions of it as well.

Hit me up in a :pm: I need a new gaming buddy.

A plus sign (+) means I took it within 20 minutes of then.
A minus sign (-) means I took it more than 20 minutes ago, but it's still active.

Forget the games. Let's play Street Rod in real life.
