Lucid_Nightlight 929 November 8, 2018 Share November 8, 2018 No, but I want to. I was born in 2001, but I lived like a 90's kid with Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, and Starfox 64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight Solace 5,135 November 8, 2018 Share November 8, 2018 I grew up with NFS, Halo and GTA. They are still great games to return to. Especially NFS Underground.

Twilight Luna 31,516 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 Didn’t grow up on video games. We had computer games. If I had the time, I would play them again but I don’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Literatel 144 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 All of my childhood computer games were released between the years 1998-2005, meaning that most of them (with the exception of one, which I still play very often) won't work on today's computers. Literatel literally just wrote some literature, as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkadios 91 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 Most of my childhood video games are Flash games, so I play the stuff I've already played all the time. Cyclomaniacs forever! *Data expunged* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuteycindyhoney 13,345 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 (edited) I didn't play video games much when I was little. Still not really into them. We had an Atari 7800 though, I don't remember which games but I played it sometimes with m y brother. Back on an edit: I just looked it up. I did like Asteroids!

Phosphor 11,546 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 I still do. I have a RetroN 2 that plays NES and SNES games. I still play the Sonic games and Earthworm Jim on my Sega Genesis/CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow Cloud 19,572 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 Yes, I mostly play older games these days usually on the original hardware, was playing Sonic 3 and Knuckles on the Mega Drive this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Once In A Blue Moon 896 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 Oh yes - all the Command and Conquer games, Black and White, Stronghold... quite often I'll pick up* an older game I remember for a weekend of gaming nostalgia (or a month as it turned out to be with The Battle for Middle Earth and Tiberian Sun) in lieu of playing anything newer. *(sometimes buying digitally, sometimes literally from the shelf of CD games I have) 4 hours ago, Literatel said: All of my childhood computer games were released between the years 1998-2005, meaning that most of them (with the exception of one, which I still play very often) won't work on today's computers. There's usually a way to make it work; I'm no technical wizard, but I've managed to get most of my older games running at one point or another. Admittedly Windows 10 has been a bit more troublesome in that regard (and Red Alert 2 still won't work) but old game forums are surprisingly good sources for fixes and patches.

I'm curious, though - what game are you referring to? Empire of the Ants - the most glitchy game in history. For the few who could play the game (it even said in the instruction manual that you needed a very specific set-up and type of Windows computer),... it was terrible. Most of the time, loading up the game would cause it to crash. The tutorial would always crash. No one could play the game for more than an hour before it froze and then crashed. The graphics were horrible, the game itself was incredibly hard. But it was awesome, in my opinion. No bug game like it today even comes close.

Elyrse 168 November 16, 2018 Share November 16, 2018 I still haven’t beat Soul Reaver 2 from when I started playing it when I was 6. I eventually gave up on it when I was 9 and picked it back up this year. Mortal Kombat is a long timer. I’m always playing it XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DixonTheAdversary 1,638 January 29, 2019 Share January 29, 2019 All the time. Usually if I am unsure as to what I want to play, I just put in a game I had when I was younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Denim&Venöm 22,097 January 30, 2019 Subscriber Share January 30, 2019 Not really. i hardly play games at all anymore. Last time I tried a child hood one, it was Rogue Squadron for the N64. And it actually felt harder, I guess because I was trying to complete mission objectives rather than just blow stuff up. There was also that time I got to the semi-finals of a Pokemon Stadium tournament. Obviously that's as far as I got and never went back. What's interesting is finding games I got as a child but never played till much later in life. Got WCW/nWo: World Tour in '98. Didn't play it till like 2014.

Lucky Star 973 January 31, 2019 Share January 31, 2019 Sure do~! Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Banjo and Kazooie, Tomba. Those games are wonderful. I even bought the remaster of the Crash Bandicoot... Buuut, it doesn't run all that well on my computer so I ended up sticking with the emulator version of the old ones. I never did get around to playing the sequels to some of these when I was a kid, I had all the crash games, but I only had the first Spyro game and it wasn't until I started using the N64 emulator that I even found out about Banjo and Tooie. 22 hours ago, ~Dusky~ said: I would gladly I'd I could.
