You know, Dragon's lair (which looked real cool in '87) Space Ace, etc........
I bough 8 copies... ;)
my brother had an old commodore amiga, man that computer was the shiznit, it had such fun games, and i think he had a game for it named dragons lair. it was decent
NO I WANNA SEE WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE SHOW ME!
All those digital Leisure titles looked like they sucked
I hope you're joking. Sure, they were new but the novelty soon wore off. Once you get over the graphics, the gameplay isn't that good. Let them be fond memories, and not bitter realities. FMV games are proof that Satan has his claws in video games.
Obviously I must not know what I'm talking about because I didn't agree with you.Quote:

Smoke filled arcade, huh? Yeah, I agree, crappy games are better when you're stoned. None of that changes what I said about the game. FMVs are frustrating and have zero replay value. I admit the older ones do have novel apeal because the graphics were beyond anything circa 1983, but there was absolutely no freedom in those games. Let them live as happy memories. Didn't you play all those crap games on the sega CD.
Sewer Shark, Tomcat Alley, shudder!
If I wanted to play an old atrai game , I whould do so on the X box , I didnt spend over $400 dollers to play a 8 bit classic....
alright, and what atari games are on the xbox? ohhh, you got SHUTDOWN!:D
I wish I still had my amiga 500, did you or your brother ever play Persian gulf inferno?Quote:

no, but he had prince of persia on it, that was so fun, he had so many games, but he didnt buy them, they were on floppy disks (not the big floppies, the little hard ones), i guess he copied them from his friends or somethin, he only bought one game for it
Yeah Prince of persia rocked. I forgot that game ever existed!
I think the only reason why they have released theses titles is because they were simple to code..hehe
hahaha space ace/dragon lair... I was so lured by the graphics at the time. Never had i played it in the arcades either so I thought you could actually move your character around and all the animation was done in real time.... WAS I WRONG!!
that's when i learned not to buy based on box covers anymore.
I was in the arcade in 1983, I was 6 and I got to tell you that I played spy hunter and mario brothers, I remember seeing these games in the arcade, specifically the time traveler one, and they all blew royally. I prefer to be immersed in a game and in control, clicking left or right occasionally does not a good game make no matter what year it is. Really now, pong was more immersive than any of these games.
