Retro Gamer forum

I love retro for the simple reason that I find playing most modern games a bit of a chore and sit there for hours sometimes feeling obliged just to finish it to get my moneys worth. I play retro games because I want to!

Picked up the new issue last night. Well done chaps, it was a great read. Enjoyed the article on Ocean immensely and it nearly bought tears to my eyes looking at games that I used to play in my youth. The balance between Consoles and Computers in this months mag was nigh on perfect! More of the same...

If you can find a copy I would recommend R-Type as well.

I had a Konix Speedking for Sega Master System.

Best Joystick ever!

Carrier Command!!!

Its crying out to be re-done!!!

In no particular order........ 1. Heroes of the Pacific - Xbox Very similar to Secret Weapons over Normandy. Simple to play and for some reason I kept getting drawn back to it despite playing through it several times. 2. Battlefield 2 - XBox The single player game is nothing special but I love this ...

I still have fond memories of Shinobi and R-Type on the Sega Master System.
Having made the leap from my trusty Spectrum 48k to the world of colour graphics had a massive impact on me at the time.

Ahh happy days...
