Hi folks,think this thread might have been made a while ago,soz if it has and soz if disappointed with my taste this time round.I was just wondering what computer games you were addicted to as a young wipper snapper??

[yvonne]

I remember playing this game all the time at the local arcades as a kid.Me and me brother used to always play 2player mode.God i spent all my hard earned pocket money playing this game.I've heard that you can now play on it on the PSP,is that right?I'd love to get it for me PSP because it would bring back all the great memories as a kid again and it would save me putting £ after £ after £ into the arcades,ha.

Space invaders and pac man I would watch others play because I could not afford it.

I became the greatest ever Street Fighter player as Ryan (spelling) and spent loads of money on that.

Quite good at Mortal Combat with Sub Zero.

tetris on the gameboy, the whole family had a contest about who could get the highest score, including the parents, and they were not into games at all but tetris just seemed to cross boundaries.

Oh man could be here for days One word and first home computer addiction: WIZARDRY. Great game...well at the time lol

Arcade way back had to be "Galaxy"...Ring king....Star Castles....Zaxon....Gorf...Contra....this one martial arts game I have never been able to remember. Platform style and faced series of foes, guy with long chain Some chick who used fans as weapons, a guy with bolo cane, etc. LOVED that game.

For old computer games I loved the Sierra games like Space Quest, Kings Quest, and Leisure Suit Larry. Arcade favorites were gauntlet and 720 the skateboarding game. SKATE OR DIE !!!!

I've been playing through the sonics again recently. Got my daughter the entire sonic collection on one cartridge.

Forgot just how brilliant they all were. Strange that after all these years, I can still remember where the hidden spots are.


SWOS and Italia 90 I think are in the retro bracket now and they were quality.

I have too many favourite really retro games to name, C64 was where it all began for me.

The first 3 Sonics were great games. I also really liked Streets of Rage 1, 2 and 3. Those early Mario games were also pretty good too.

+1 to the Sierra games...I didn't own a gaming system till I was in college but I remember playing a lot of Tecmo Bowl, Contra, Ultimate Fighter and the Mario series as a child.

Streets of rage.. Galaxian.

Tecmo Bowl was great but Super Tecmo Bowl was the shizznit. The first one was kind of cheap, nobody can catch Bo Jackson if you get to the sideline. LT on defense was sick.

I'm old school as i remember my dad coming home with the Atari 2600 games console...
Asteroids etc

I used to love Gauntlet at the local 7/11 back in the day...Bombjack was another fave and Street fighter and Double Dragon played everyday in the Puma Tracki shop after school.

The first console I ever had was the Atari 2600 and my absolute favourite games on it were 'Centipede' and 'Dig-Dug'.





But one of my all-time favourite games was a pretty obscure (I think) game on the SEGA Megadrive called 'Gun Star Heroes'. You basically moved through the level as fast as you could shooting as much shit as you could. There was shit to be shot everywhere!! And the best thing was the the guns just got more and more absurd... Man that game was just the ultimate shoot 'em up!!

It was kinda like Sonic The Hedgehog with a M16
