Speaking of greatest classic games of all time...

Thought I would share these treasures with some of you older forum members that can actually remember pumping quarters into these little bad boys...

and you youngsters... in the 80's - these games were STATE OF THE ART!

OMYGOD... some COOL games converted to the intarweb!

Duck Hunt (the classic Nintendo standby)

Defender (how could this have been left out of our lists?)

Joust (this game ROCKED!)

Rampage

Spy Hunter (loved this game too!)

Space Invaders (cool before color came around)

Pong (how could we forget the game that started it all)


Enjoy!!

Ah, precious Defender, the game that never ended.

Oh man, it doesn't look like I'll be getting any sleep tonight...

What made these games so cool, is that they were simplistic in design, yet kept our attentions for hours at a time. Yet... they pale in comparison to today's graphics laden monstrocities. I've already been playing joust for the last several hours.

I love you, Lunar.

Ever hate that stupid dog from Duck Hunt??? Well, play game "D" to exact your revenge on them! Now THAT'S a feature not in the original that should have been! :teeth:

I used to have java frogger but it died

Kinda makes you wonder what we did for entertainment before video games came out.

Oh yeah, we threw rocks at each other.

Good times.

I still have a few rocks from before we got the 2600

and darnit Freet, your presence makes me doubt that I deleted those poll threads with my mind since it was probably you, but it won't make me stop trying

*closes eyes and rubs temples*

I think those were moved to "The most uberist threads of all time" forum.

Or not.

Oh.... Spy hunter. I used to play that for hours on that big sit-down monster at the arcade. Thanks Lunar!

*wipes away a tear of happiness*

 

[ULTIMATER]

Rampage rox!

GJ Lunar!

 

[zodiac66]

Not to date myself, but I still can spend hours on one quarter with Galaga.
