A whole lotta vidya indeed

Gamers for life.

~Skeeter The Lurker

damn

Noc

That’s a good list and all (Perfect Dark wee), but you didn’t even include SimCity 4.

I am so disappoint.

Darn, not sure which games a lot of the early ones are, now I feel embarrassed.

Great, now you've made me nostalgic.




Dammit, Skirts

The steady progression of graphics. :twilightsmile:

(Sadly I've only played like half a dozen of those and recognize maybe half a dozen more.)

Lots of good Video Games in this list

aight then

Daaaaamn, I see a lot of my childhood in this journal...
Makes me happy :pinkiesmile:

Me not that kind of orc!

Simcopter, but no Streets of Simcity? I am disappoint. Now excuse me while I go slap a DeLorean skin on the sports car and go hovering around the city of chunky graphics at 88MPH.

Castle of Dr Brain !!!

EDIT:
remember to pluck the chicken.

ErmahGurd, Skirts played Dungeon Siege, Best game ever. so skirts, original game or Legends of arana expansion?

I recognise a fair number of those games by genre, a few by name, but of them all, only One did I ever play at home, because I didnt have a PC. I had the home computer that at its peak, had more games listed for it, than all the other platforms put together.

I played Lemmings.

Last year, I finally managed to get a go on an origional Virtuality rig from the 90s. Before the guys waiting for Oculus came back.

It aint the graphics, its the response, fluidity, and gameplay that count. Otherwise Pong would never have even worked.:trollestia:

Todays graphics card have up to a thousand times the resources, Per Pixel, at 4KHDR3D/120, than the 80s computers. They should be perfectly smooth, instant reponse etc. And theyre just going to get thousands of times more capable, because you can only push physiology so much to respond to image quality.

Next theyre going to find out that all their mega AI routines can be replaced by a gnome on a bicycle reading a book to get a better result. So whats all the rest of that power going on? Busy wait and advertising?

Find the games you like, play the games you like, ignore me cos Im totally useless at anything thats not turn based RPG and pretty ropy at those.

Im the guy who likes to take a BOLO to a Gordian Knot competition.:trollestia:

What a long, strange trip it's been.

MYST. What a fantastic game.

TF2 is here? I am happy.

Well, we can rest assured that you have good taste in games.

Is it sad that I only recognized Super Mario Bros. and it's two sequels? Of course, I only just graduated high school, sooo...

Okay, I seriously gotta know what game is the one with the rebel standing outside of an escape pod. I believe I used to play that one so much as a kid and now I kinda wanna play it again, but I can't find any game that matches the description I'm looking for. Any help?

Omg! Good taste in games, but some of these I actually don't recognize! I need a list!

I'm a huge Silent Hill and Final Fantasy Fan. Resident Evil 4 and Fallout 3 and Skyrim I love as well.

Heck, I'll just list my top 25 favorite games:

Oh my gosh, I can't believe I'd forgotten this thing until I saw that picture. I used to play that game so much as a kid. Looks like it's in a free online archive of MS-DOS games, too… I guess it's time for a nostalgia trip. Thanks for reminding me it existed.

Definitely started with a TI 99/4A I see.

Yay! Someone acknowledged TimeSplitters!

oh Scorched Earth, how I've missed you in my life.
Also, I'm surprised there aren't any of the Final Fantasy I-VI games

is it sad that i had more fun with those graphically limited games than do with modern ones?

This was extremely cool, literally scrolling through an evolution of games in general, let alone games you've liked. Thanks for joining the conversation... in a typical Skirtsian wordless way.

No, that's normal. That statement is true for any sane person. :pinkiehappy:

Hap

Hey, I've played some several of those games!

Scorched Earth

I paid for that one back in the day! Sent my money to the author and everything...

Actually, they haven't let it die. It was remade in 3D over here -> http://www.scorched3d.co.uk/

It's still stupidfun blowing up everyone with bigger and bigger weapons. Free download for Windows and Linux.

Lists, huh?

I can do those! My five most favorite games ever:

5. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
4. Left 4 Dead 2
3. Pokémon Red/Blue
2. Final Fantasy VI
1. Fallout: New Vegas

Honorary Mention: Golden Sun, DOOM 2016, FFI (GBA DoS version), and FFXII because I don't want Final Fantasy to hog three of five spots.
