Brilliant, rock hard old school style platformer.

No, I mean if you have to ACTIVATE it in order to play the singleplayer mode. And if you think that's a far-fetched idea I'm guessing you've not played a few singleplayer retail box PC releases lately... :cry: So, what happens to us when we want to play these in the future? Or if your son wants a g...

+1 from me for those bastards.

A general Arcade game bosses from me, sodding money grabbing bastard games programmers.

Actually thinking about it it's probably P.O.W. (scrolling fighter) and Joe and Mac for me, I used to feed those two machines at Spanish City all of my money.

I loved this too, and it cost 50p a go when I was playing it!

Loved Offroad Racing as well, but was completely crap at it.

I've got:

Megadrive: 43 mixed
Master System: 11 mixed
N64: 12 carts
Neo Geo AES: 13 mixed
NES: 17 carts
SNES: 65 carts

There's a few machines I don't track: PSP, DC, GC, WII, XBOX

I like to look after my stuff, I tend to stick to cart based games so they are generally in better nick when I buy them. I've never bothered with this-gen gaming (Wii doesn't really count) until I bought my 8 year old stepson an XBox 360 last week. I've bought him some second hand games for it and t...

During my SNES days I got suckered into buying a lot of crap from the - then new - publisher THQ. They did a lot of cartoon style games (Taz Mania, Daffy Duck etc) and so I bought them thinking they'd be good. Little did I know they were the friggin' LJN of the SNES era. :roll: Luckily for them the...

Loved it. Never finished though, I think I used to get screwed on the helicopter mission. Perfect example of gameplay distilled really, nintendo were good at that. Although I might be seeing things through a rose tinted rum glass.

Has the xbox still got the stock hard disc or is there a bigger one in there?

EDIT: ahh the original thread title says it does.

This is brilliant.

Someone has scanned an Argos catalogue from 1985.

A-Team toys! A Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum!

Someone asked me in the pub if I was there for the quiz, pretty early it was, but I had to take my drunken friends away , I was wearing a "I love shooting Zombies" t-shirt from Threadless. Was it a forum member?

Really looking forward to the next one. I'll be booking as early as possible.

I kept my eyes peeled for you too but didn't spot you. I think I might wear a name tag or a t-shirt with my name on next time.

I got King of Monsters for the Neo and signed Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising from the raffle! Can't play Flashpoint mind, PC isn't up to it.

Was fantastic!

It was awesome. Only said hello to Lorfarius because he was the only one I recognised! (You're a lot taller than you look on the telly (youtube))
