I love trippin down memory lane... thinking about getting so excited when I was a kid and got a SNES for Christmas with Mario All Stars... in a big yellow box... and being 'the man' at Mario Kart. And a Mega-CD with Night Trap and Cobra Command... what I'd give to play that again. And the good-old Game Genie for the Megadrive... and always thinking how crap it was compared to the Pro Action Replay, but now wishing I could find even a single code for it. And my A1200 Amiga, with Amos and Blitz Basic... and making a Doctor Who platform game with the former... with Daleks as sprites because they were easy to animate. Ah, I love memory lane
I know how ya feel. There's so many good things i can choose from, but i've said.. 3? I have tons of things i could say, but most of them just don't matter as much as the ones i've already thrown out.
A ton of my good memories, of things i love, are gaming related. I remember spending my childhood playing Age of Mythology. That game was my world back then. I remember getting super engrossed by the stories of games, which interested me beyond anything else. Man. I miss being a kid.
Thanks for your rep I love my avatar too... it's a very meaningful symbol for me and the closest thing I've got to a religion as an atheist
I've never played that. My game was Colonization, and all the history that came with it inspired me so much, creating a lifelong love of American and Native American history. I even used to have it as kind of part of my identity, and had native american-style jewellery... an earring and a medallion in the shape of a dream-catcher. And my favourite book was Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee.
