I've yet to encounter a game quite as entertaining and compelling as the original Tribes. Nothing like nailing someone midair with an explosive disc while gliding across the ground at 200mph, or running a flag from an enemy's base to your own, in constant motion without interruption, in a matter of seconds.

God I miss the original Tribes. I'd give anything for it to be recreated in its original form and physics with updated graphics. Masterpiece.

Yes, when you choose your alignment between the city full of vampires and skeletons, or the one with titans and stuff. It felt like starting the game all over again: new city, missions and stuff. Tried to beat when released, tried to beat a year ago. No profit.

Yeah. It's a pretty damn good game, though it hasn't aged all that well like a lot of games from that era. Used to play that game a lot when I was younger.

Early releases allowed you to, but then some bible thumping mothers bitched and later releases wouldn't let you.

All NES version releases were language censored too.
>>
>>727584619
You mean Frogs n Flies? Yeah. that's some pretty good shit right there. That was one of the first games I ever owned and it's still a good bit of fun to this day.

Some of my favorite games for the console were River Raid, Pitfall 2, Midnight Magic and Yar's Revenge, to name a few....
>>
>>727584321
can confirm. you can still microwave it, but there were other parts of the game that were censored in the North American version.

True, but Maniac Mansion has that very classic look and feel to it.
It still felt.. dare I say.. dangerous.

I'm here you old fuck. Used to play Pitfall & ET (yes that ET, at 7 years old, I didn't think it was that bad) until my fucking eyes bugged out.

Atari coulda been even bigger if they'd spent time making decent games & ports of games instead of pushing them to market in the name of a cash grab. Activision took their goddam time and look where they are now.

Same here, I played it when I was very young and I didn't actually realize it was supposed to be funny. The house felt really creepy to me. Day of the Tentacle was great, but there was nothing frightening about it whatsoever.

Some of the parts of the Indiana Jones games were pretty dark though. IIRC you could die in several ways while trying to go through Atlantis.

They also should of done a better job of controlling what was actually released for the console. Sure, there were some classic games, but there was a lot of crap released for the system as well. And I mean a lot!!! That, to me is what really hurt them.

First game you owned, like on cartridge? I don't remember his atari had any cartridges. All i remember is that he had A LOT of games on it already and when we where searching for a game we had to flip a switch and cycle through dozens of games until we found one we want. Was such a chore -.-

>>
>>727586305

True there were some real shit games out there. It was back before rentals were a thing too so you'd be spending the equivalent of around $130 based on box art & commercials, just to find out a game was garbage.

>>727586537
Yup. I owned it on cartridge. Still do, as a matter of fact.

I couldn't get enough. One time, I was playing at a friend's house and he wanted to go out. I was in the middle of an epic run and didn't want to leave yet. In response he switched the difficulty switch, halving my rate of fire. Barely slowed me down.

tl;dr I would rank it up with Ms. Pac-Man

It's on the Super Famicon, the jap SNES. It was made by Square as well. Imo, it is the best SNES game of all time, but it never got to America.

It has epic music, multiple characters to play as with different stories, secret end boss and a better leveling system

Yeah. it's just easier that way. Don't get me wrong, I still have my old Atari at home and I still like to fire it up every now and then. But it's just a lot more comvienient- and cheaper- to just play them on my PC. I don't have the time, space, or cash to start collecting old games and setting up a game room in my house right now.

I'm currently building a Pi3 into an arcade pcb to use with my cabinet, but I can't get the damn thing to display properly.

I tried many configs, I'm starting to wonder if its my hdmi2vga convertor.

Well, there's my new desktop ;-)

>>727590007
it plays everything up to Dreamcast & PC games although the Dreamcast has slowdown issues, it's a modular system so you can just add the systems that you like... it can pretty much run all of the old skool consoles and home computers, highly recommended

>>727590296
This is on my project list but I haven't tried it yet, it should work fine in a cab
...assuming you're using the converter type with additional usb power lead to compensate for the low voltage HDMI signal from the Pi3 then it should work

One of the first games i played was Adventure on the Atari 2600, and Combat. Loved the bouncy bullet tanks

tell your cousin we love him. I'm 35 years old and I pine for a game with that kind of atmosphere. I feel bad he wasnt pat of obduction. just let him know it was nothing like myst and to hold his head high. I would pay money to get the atmosphere myst had.
