Do any of you remember 'Ultimate' games ? Back in the good ol' days of the BBC Basic circa 1983-ish Knightlore [youtube]66RaPJ3va4I[/youtube] [youtube]roeGHMNyHng[/youtube] Atic Atac [youtube]zDaQnOI6pVg[/youtube] Sabre Wulf [youtube]sgeZI5TYb3Q[/youtube] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_Play_The_Game
Never got round to Alien 8 ... shame really, I loved Knightlore ! The basis for Grand Theft Auto ! It was great you could run down pedestrians circa 1986 ! Turbo Esprit [youtube]mHM4M_fX_Y4[/youtube] Also knock ladders out from under window cleaners too !
oh aye Head over Heels was the greatest of those isometric games imo (even though it was a later Ocean game) [YOUTUBE]7sjvCPMhfq4[/YOUTUBE]
Just found an old favourite of mine Laser Squad for the Amiga ... a bit like Space Hulk [youtube]VVZtLlvjHUw[/youtube] (music only though [:^(]) Space Hulk [youtube]DUJJLy-LwQw[/youtube] [youtube]pJWmtIfKkKw&feature=related[/youtube] (in German !) What a great game Another personal favorite .... more CinemaWare ! Wing Commander series [youtube]wfAoVX_VWWs[/youtube] [youtube]wPvR13-dpt0&feature=related[/youtube] The good ol' days of a 486 have to get it running in DosBox see how it does ! Plus .... CinemaWare ... Wings [youtube]DEIARv4zpCk[/youtube] I also used to love TV Sports Football .. but no you tube footage of note ! Plus never forget some ... Diablo [youtube]3suoMAztGkw[/youtube] (Speed walkthrough) [youtube]ITqdpkQO6XA&feature=related[/youtube] [youtube]qMjdp9n7irA&NR=1[/youtube]
Eeeeee the good ol' days of DOS ! Star Wars - Dark Forces [youtube]5M54EXmEGB0[/youtube] [youtube]RR1qrAi3gL0[/youtube] [youtube]AW8yk_eIHJU[/youtube] A top FPS that one ! 1994 I think. I'll dig my copy out of the loft and see how XP/DosBox copes with it. Never forget a stupendous game ...... Dungeon Keeper [youtube]oQRauwQoevU[/youtube] [youtube]d-_1Vy1-FSs[/youtube] Still good fun to this day
Interstate 76 was fantastic. I got it with my Microsoft forcefeed back joystick and played it using that. Remember playing most of one mission with a flat tire and the joystick giving me whiplash. Interstate 82 was pants. Not the same mission structure, buying bits etc. as it let you pick cars to drive.
Oh I remember the days ...... Quake [youtube]naWoflV_lRs[/youtube] Quake 2 [youtube]1SVVKQlwTUk[/youtube] Some Quake & DOOM business [youtube]cYi3qT1rQzA[/youtube] I've just remembered a good game from years ago .... Warhammer - Shadow of the Horned Rat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warhammer:_Shadow_of_the_Horned_Rat Warhammer - Dark Omen [youtube]7cEiOp33_Ac[/youtube] Slightly off track a bit, but ..... Warhammer 40k ... great vid [youtube]aViccm7dk94[/youtube]
Talking of old-skool gaming, this is a genius remix of a really rather annoying song that swept the USA last year or so. Chocolate Rain II The original song: Chocolate Rain
Anyway after all the insults the dude had he got his own back.....loads of money!!! [YOUTUBE]2x2W12A8Qow[/YOUTUBE]
Does anyone remember "Way of the Exploding fist"???? Also - Jet Pac rocked on the spectrum....... Monty Mole games by Gremlin?? Wot about Uridium on the C64.... classic gaming thread, brought back loads of memories... Knight lore, Batman, Head over Heels were classics...... Keep em coming...proper games....never realised people remembered games like Turbo Esprit etc... Daley Thompsons Decatholon was another.....how hard / fast could you hit those keys?!?!?!
Way back in the day ..... circa 1990 my best mate bought a Neo-Geo so we could play actual Arcade games at home. I think the Neo Geo cost about 200 and each game cost 100 !!!! At the time it was amazing. Rather than walking down to the seafront arcades we could play them on the Television in the front room. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo_Geo_%28console%29 BaseBall Stars [youtube]aaUamxm2FNA[/youtube] Super Spy [youtube]w_udD14dwTc[/youtube]
