Holy cow I remember that one.
Havenāt seen that one. My dad only had two DOS games and the other was hangman
Yeah that looks like a good game in the same vein of Battlezone, and music is good too.
Also loved Scorched Earth as well and played that a bunch.
Diablo 2 was what got me into WoW. This was my first MMO.
Same my first taste of games was Space Invaders where I played at the Pub where you sat at a table to play it lol. And pinball machines loved em. Wow was my first computor game tho. This was my sonās account he stopped playing so I started playing. He wanted it back I said NO. So I paid for a new account for him. My tool growing and working was a Typewritter.
I miss arcades so much. Was the highlight of mine growing up
Possibly Spectre? It came out later but was available on the old macs, it came out in 91 vs 83 for Battlezone and I believe was pretty popular
Shame.
Gorilla was one where you were one of two giant gorillas on skyscrapers throwing explosive bananas at each other.
I did play games on a PC 8088 and amstrad CPC 464, but my first love was super mario land on game boy
YEA THATS IT. it was in a small window with like 8 games on the old mac.
Diablo II I guess you could say was my āfirst gameā.
Of course, I played many other games before that, like Mario, Zelda, Pokemonā¦ etc.
We had a place like this in the 80s. My brother was in high school and they all hung out there. It was a beach pier arcade.
You could drive on the beach. Sit on the dunes. People hanging out in phone booths all night.
āSounds like me. I was into Pinball A LOT. I didnāt even get into computers until I was much older. I spent my time Roller Skating, and playing Pinball. I did play Need For Speed a couple of times. I got into DnD, table top gaming for a long time. That is what got me interested in WoW. I watched a friend play it, and it looked so much like DnD that I had to give it a try.ā
there were places like chucke cheese and the like, but there were places that were just solo arcades, those were the best.
What game did you first play that got you into gaming?
I played Atari and Nintendo as a kid. But it was Starsiege that got me into computer gaming.
Video games didnāt exist when I was a child, and my kids had no interest in them. My grandkids and great-grandkids love them though. I was first exposed to World of Warcraft when hanging out with my granddaughter. It took a few more years before I actually tried it though, and Iāve loved it ever since.
Since then I have also played minecraft with my great-granddaughter.
There were many board games that I played before of course, and many years of Dungeons and Dragons once that came out.
like chucke cheese
We had a Show Biz pizza. Terrible food but great arcade lol
Yooooo, I played this a TON back in the day. I really love the OST.
I donāt remember the game that well but I remember this track in the OST and thought it was pretty banginā.
I will throw out probably my favorite JRPG of all time. Sister actually introduced it to me, and this is when the only RPG I played at the time was Final Fantasy 7. I grew up on Contra and such so was like āblam blamā and less lore stuff.
But man. I love this game.
Chuck E. Cheese also had terrible pizza lol, and the creepy animatronics
Another good game from around that time that is often not known or was missed, is Legend of the Dragoon
