Hi Rioter,
The games you quoted are very much the same games I've played back then.
I still can remember the evenings where me and my buddy played Mortal Kombat on an 486 , with splitscreen.
Also Doom was a great game to play, between 2 pc's with a nul-modem cable, great time we've had there.
Indeed the games now aren't what they 've used to be, that's one of the reasons I don't play a lot anymore.
Greetz,

Hi,
Wow!!! I could remember so many that i can barely name them:
From Spectrum: Ghosts n' Goblins, Ghouls n' Ghosts, Sir Fred, School Daze, Back to Skool, Starqueake, Lords of Chaos, Myth, ATV Simulator, Trapdoor, Gremlins, etc., etc., etc....
...and from PC: yes... DOOM (of course) and the unforgettables old graphic adventures... yeah!!!
And, you are right, old games were harder than today ones... but i prefer it that way. Today games are really easy, too easy!!! You always beat them and without tricks, maybe some walkthroughs sometimes but NEVER tricks the first time i beat them.
Bye.

The game I remember best was the old Super Mario Bros. from my old NES clone. Then there was contra which kicked major ass. On the PC, I remember the Commander Keen games (anyone got a copy of those lying around?) and Wolf3D very fondly. Roadrash is still one of my very favourite games. Then came the SNES and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 and Top Gear. Wow... all those old memories.
Cheers,

On my Commodore: Double Dragon, Outrun, Karate something, Frogger, and some thousand others...
The first games I've played on PC were Commander Keen and Outrun again, I think...

Well mine are a LOT more recent but....
Ninja Turtles, Mortal Combat, Super Mario Bros, Sonic, and a few others that I can't remember. Then towards 5th grade I started to play Star Craft, Half-Life, and a few others. I did/do remember playing emulators of old atari and arcade games, now those are FUN.
