Posted: Tue Jan 23, 2007 2:29 am Post subject: Retro Fever: Playing old games! |
|
|
I had some drinks and had this idea here.
Here's the premise. I will post a list of old games that I like. Others will add games to that list that they like. Only games that are from before the gamecube/xbox/ps2/DS/PSP are eligable unless they are at least 5 years old. Every time a person completes a game, they will make a post checking it off. At the end of the year, the person with the most games checked off gets to be the person with the most games checked off! If you didn't play it and complete it in 2007 you can't check it off!
Unless somebody wants to appropriate a prize. I'm too materialistic to give up any of my stuff.
These are all assumed to be games that are fun, or worth playing in a general sense at least.
I don't really remember so much about some of these aside from that I had fun as a child!
I may find out otherwise!
You can't suggest a game you haven't played btw.

Not exactly obscure, but Dragon Quest 1-4 and the original Final Fantasy for the NES.
I love those games so much. |

All the contras count.
the end.
In Vandal Hearts I am already planning out my team.
Ash- Vandelier
Clint, Dolan, Grog- Armor
Eleni/Huxley- Monk
Zohar- Mage
Diego/Kira- Archer
Amon/Darius- Airman
Sara- Cleric
It should be interesting.
I chose these classes based on what I think will look really cool. |

If by masochist you mean someone who doesn't play ROMs, then yeah.
Besides, if the only difference between Cybernator and Assault Suits Valken is the quality of the localisation and/or edited story content, I'm not that concerned. I certainly didn't play games like this back then for their gripping storytelling. |

If it was possible to score a full functional PC Engine/Turbo Duo for under $100, I would be all over that.
Instead I'm going to play Michael Jordan: Chaos in the Windy City and slam dunk grenades on every monster I run across. _________________

Umm, you don't need a duo, but yeah, it's nearly possible. Most of my games for my Duo are HuCards anyways. _________________
