I don't have the attachment to digtal media that I do to physical. I still listen to music, even though I don't keep a physical collection anymore, but going digital has definitely ruined my obsession with it. I fear gaming will go the same way. I wonder what I'll get hooked on next? Maybe cooking. Doesn't get more physical than that. And no fear of it being digitized. Or will it?
Were you born in the summer of '77 Star Wars baby?
Yep. It's going way back. I'll be into the NES stuff in the second half of this year. I can't wait for that. As much as I have nostalgia for the arcade years, I'm more excited to play NES games. It's just a matter of more content and variety of gameplay.
I'm feeling that need for more work right now too. I'm doing school and pt work for one more semester but I hope to be fully back to work in the summer. I enjoy my gaming better with a full slate of work.
I played it on PS2 but didn't finish it. I hope I can stick with it this time.
Forza's story is so burried in all the events that I've completely lost track of it. So I'm using the achievement list as a kind of outline to a plot of my own creation. That way I feel like there's progression and an eventual end.
I think about how Mark completed Wolfenstein II in a day. What a different experience.
The first video arcade game I played might have been one of the Gran Trak racing games. Those were out in '74.
Lots of cool 2D and 3D visuals from both new and old styles in all the games you mentioned. I like.
Apparently that Wii game has escaped my colllection. This must not be. I will find it out in the wild tomorrow.
Well I died, but didn't play longer to see what would happen next. I'll get back to it though.
I love games that level based on what you do. I try to do that myself when the game gives me a lot of options. I just think of what I did and apply the points accordingly. Cool!
Neat! Formations sound excellent. I can't wait to play more of it.
Yea, they rereleased them not too long ago. I got some original ones through ebay a few years ago.
I did not know that about Galaxian. I was trying to find the most recent collection with Galaxian. Oh I just saw that it was on Wii in the Namco Museum Megamix collection. I think I have that. Maybe I'll break out the Wii soon.
