Taking a trip down memory lane

[xCarne_Asada]

I installed Doom today, yes Doom the Original. That game is classic even did a little lan action with my brother. I picked the game up with like 9 others at the 99 cent store

[Paul -The Mad Hatter]

cool, I love finding older games and playing them, brings back memorys ................. :)

[Killer Chef]

Yeah I tried to play Duke Nukem 3D a few months ago..
I forgot that you cant use the mouse to look up and down like with newer games, Hence i gave up very quickly!
Dammit...I used to play that game for hours at a time over a LAN.

I was gonna get all nostalgic the other day with X-COM: UFO Defense and Terror From the Deep, but the Collector's Edition CD doesn't seem to wanna work with GeForce video cards. It worked with my old voodoo 3, but not with my GeForce 2. And one of my roommates had the same problem with his GeForce2. So I'm sad.

But I've got a CD full of old games. Star Control, Star Control II, Wolfenstein 3D (Registered, all 6 eps!).....list goes on.

[Über~PhLuBB]

Wolfenstien 3D
Duke Nukem (1)
Duke Nukem 2
Halloween Harry
Commander Keen 2

I love nostalgia, I wish i could find an old copy of duke 3d. The oldest game that i still play, disregaurding the mame arcade emulators that are technically illeagle, is simcity 2000. I love that game and will never get tired of it, it think its the music i'm addicted to! I lost the original disks long ago but coppied the install off of them and created a zip file which i just transfer everytime i change hd's love that game.:D

Those were all back in 'The Day'.

You know you're getting old when you can remember stuff from back in the day and it brings a tear to your eye as you fondly reminise. *sniff*

I need a moment . . .

;_-

[xCarne_Asada]

does anyone remember spear of destiny?

[typhoonmike]

Heh. Legacy of the Ancients and Wasteland on the Apple IIe. I loved those 2 games. Oh and the original Wizardry or Zork.

[Robbie]

[Gravity Man]

Wasteland is sweet, I still play it every once in a while on my Commodore 64.

I love bringing back those memories! I have over a hundred 1.44 floppies full of games I got back in the late 80's and early 90's when I used to go to BBS's. That's the only reason I haven't thrown away my 486SX. It has 8 megs of ram and 25 mhz. It can't play newer games like Duke 3D, but it can run any game made before about 1994.

oh comeone now, am i the only one that ever played the text version of rpg's with telenet????

[typhoonmike]

You mean like mudding? Cause yeah I've done that also. Still log on to one MUD on occassion that I've been on since around 94.

[xCarne_Asada]

haha I remeber MUD, some kid just reminded my of it at a lan last week.

[DAGO]

Anyone remember a 2D game called Seabattle??? Had 10 or 12 different scenarios based on real surface battles...no detail to speak of, but a helluva lot of fun...As I recall there was nothing so cool as a nice series of torpedo strikes, especially after firing and waiting for several minutes for the fish to travel the distance...
My how far we've come since those old DOS games...:D :D

I remember sitting in front of that game for hours! I think back in 94 or 95! What a cool game. Was it a local store or national? I wouldn't mind playing that again.

[xCarne_Asada]

It was national. I think. The Giant Chain.
