[GilgameshRO]

I generally play 2D games exclusivly.

[Yossy]

I'm sorta the same as Gilgamesh.  I'm definitely an old-school gamer.  I miss the days when games were dependent upon their entertainment factor, instead of the dependence on shiny graphics and big explosions that you see nowadays.

All the time, I find myself craving:
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Dragon Warrior 3
Shining Force 2
Mega Man 2, 4, 5, 6
Mega Man X, X2, X3, X5
Phantasy Star 2
Mischief Makers
Ogre Battle 64
Final Fantasy 4, 6, Mystic Quest
Magi-Nation
Chrono Trigger
Street Fighter 2 (the first one! XD)
Kid Icarus
Earth Bound
Sailor Moon: Another Story (no laughing!)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4: Turtles in Time (stop laughing!)
Pok

[Malson]

No way! We have applaud / smite now! Kick ass!

[Yossy]

Ogre Battle (the original)

SWEET!  Dollmages <3 <3 _{we've already had this conversation...}

Bahamut Lagoon

Heck yeah!  I knew I was forgetting something.

Know what else I forgot?

The original Star Fox!

[Malson]

Wait nevermind I guess we don't.

[Arrow]

I own the Original Star Fox, and play it often. I can't beat the third path...But I did find that endless Lotto Machine Stage!

[Yossy]

...which reminds me that I need to download a Star Fox rom one of these days...

You know what an incredible platformer on the Sega Genesis was?  Vectorman!!

[Moss.]

Yeah, me too. Basically all I play is Gameboy, SNES, Genesis, and NES games.

Hey, I remember that game! It's been so long since I've played it or even thought about it... Ah, memories....

[Arrow]

I loved that game. It was awesome. I couldn't beat the first level. I was seven, and had never seena Genesis in my life at the time. But I like it anyhow. I speak broken English. Fluently.

[biohazard]

Vectorman kicked ass! the drill power-up was awesome.  I love the level where you are on the train and there is the steel golem grabbing on and climbing the floating rails, so cool.  Beat it, and two.

[Yossy]

I remember renting Vectorman 2, but I don't remember anything about it.


I remember the first Vectorman having all these insane cheats.  Like, you could freeze the screen and move through walls and stuff.  But, if you cleared the game using any of the cheats, the ending of the game only shows a screen that says "Nice job!  Next time, try not to cheat!"  It made me feel so guilty.  To this day, I have no idea what the real ending is.

[Geno]

anyone who can beat Vector man is hardcore  :lol
