Why do we play old games

Go to hell, Dark Keranu. Really, GO TO HELL!

I disagree.

[Seldane]

Hell rules. I've been there. It's cool. And I mean cool.

Almost as cool as Frozen Utopia.

On the other hand, I catch myself a lot whistling a tune from 2d games with hilarious soundtrack like Winds of Thunder, Gates of Thunder, Star Parodia, etc.,

Making fun of the GOT soundtrack is punishable by death on these boards...

I'm a great whistler, therefore it's more a homage.

I am master and dark lord of all of my kingdom of Hell. Worship me and my might!

The only thing that bothers me to this day is the vast amount of brainless FPS games. They're all the same basic game with "l33t0r gr4f1X m4|\|!!!!!!111111". BOOOOOOOORING. Keep your Quake 13, Medal Of Honor 84, Half-Life 132, I'll go play me some original DOOM goodness.

Exactly, the original DOOM kicks ass. I own the collector's edition.

If that's the $10 version with DOOM 1 (Ultimate DOOM), DOOM 2 and Final DOOM, then I have the same disc. I <3 that game.

I'm still amazed people pay $10 bucks for Doom. I mean,ever since Al Gore invented the internet,Doom has been pretty much free.

C'mon man, it's DOOM. Doom 1 and 2 are a BARGAIN for $10, and by getting the .WADs from the official disk, you know that it hasn't been hacked.

[Turbo D]

He's right! I had bought that disk too.

I still remember the day when I got the call from a dude that was interested in a video game sales ad I posted on the recycler classifieds. I was selling my Gameboy, NES, and Gamegear. He didn't have any money (we were both pretty young) but he did have a Japanese Turbo Grafx 16, something called a PC Engine. Since I wanted a DUO very badly, I jumped on the idea and traded goods. I really enjoyed playing those games for the PC Engine. I couldn't get enough of Shubibinman 2 and Y's. Gosh those were great times. I ended up trading the bundle to a friend later on for a Genesis once the PCE CD player took a dive. After a few weeks I wanted my PC Engine back, half broken or not, but the friend of mine traded it to someone else... Well I finally tracked it down and the system was missing the AC adapter and most of the games were long gone, so I ended up selling it on eBay a few years later. I'm so glad after all this time I finally got an Interface Unit again! I'm glad I'm able to relive those days and I'm completely taken back by how there is such an incredible website dedicated to the system. Life is Good!

Wow, what a great story. I cant believe you scored a pc engine with cd player back then.
