Author Topic: Retro Video Game Megathread - post old stuff here and get a hard on over it  (Read 5675 times)

This is a topic dedicated to the discussion of retro video games. You know, pixely games that you can probably play on an emulator now without the FBI barging in on you when you almost beat Mega Man or some stuff.

People always discuss newer games, which is fine, but I don't see enough topics that suit my desire to talk about older video games. I have always enjoyed older video games than newer ones, and I have no idea why. Maybe it's the fact that older games were more challenging and posed a greater challenge than just shooting through missions on Call of Duty or something. Either way, I needed to make a topic over this.

Before you bother me on telling me what retro is, I consider it basically anything N64 and below, and older PC games. Older PC games as in Amazon Trail or Dinosaur Hunter or something. DOS counts, too. Also, don't argue if someone spits out bullstuff about how emulators are illegal. Only certain ones are, and it's all abandonware either way, so no harm is done. Hopefully.

Someone say something.

I thought about making a thread like this :D.
I'm currently playin' Roller Coaster Tycoon 1.
The best of them all in my opinion.
I would play Age of Empires II, but it only works on my older monitor.

I have never played Roller Coaster Tycoon, which makes me sad. I heard it was a great game.

As for Age of Empires II, holy stuff yes that game is awesome.

RCT3 - The funniest line in the game, a tombstone that reads "Here lies RCT2"

Hit and Run is kind of newer compared to some of these :c.
I'm thinking more along the lines of 1999-2001
Hit and Run is 2003 I think.

I'm not sure about RCT3, It always looked kinda kiddie'd to me.
So I never tried it. Is it really worth getting?

oh well, what about Mario party 2? Get this, someone left a N64 at my house when they moved out, 4 games, one was kirby :3

N64 and below or older compie games? Well, my favorites <3 :

N64:
Tetrisphere
Beetle Adventure Racing
Excite Bike 64
Lego Racers

SNES/NES:
Metroid
Super Metroid

PC:
Worms Armageddon
Worms 2

Would a game like Metroid Fusion count? It was released in 2001, I think. Also TRON 2.0: Killer App.

Never liked Sonic games.
Not being an ass, I just never did.
I really enjoy Adventure, but after Sonic Adventure 2, I was done with sonic games.

I really like Sonic 3 & Knuckles. More than the original Sonic, but I still love the Sonic series. It sucks stuff now though.
