[Classic] Nintendo vs. Seaga: Anyone else miss those days?

I think it will never be the same again. Current games take themselves too seriosly and some new ideas are bad or overdone. I am not planning to buy any nextgen in the near future. Time games being developed is getting longer and longer and what we get in return? I remember playing Super Mario Bros 3 (NES) with my sister or TMNT with everybody. Even my father completed two levels of Doom on SNES Today, there is no chance they will play any new games. Not that they don't have time, the games are just silly...

How ya doing, buddy?

SNES Doom is about the most homosexual thing ever

I didn't have a PC back then so... It's not I wanted to say. Making your old father to play a console game is some sort of achieviement.

Also did anyone honestly buy Doom on a console and if so, why when the superior PC version was available free everywhere and would run on pretty much any computer

PS Doom has 32-bit color palette, some nice cool levels and awesome soundtrack. Other than that I agree.

PS2 was the last great console for me, but it had to much re-warmed steaks. I am not a fanboy, I have a few consoles and my number one would be the PSX. Then goes PS2 & NES. I like every console have - I wouldn't even sell the Jaguar for life. Jaguar & 3DO have the only Wolf3D ports so I had to buy them I won't hide it. I am console and FPS games maniac. I have Doom for EVERY possible platform etc.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

^ Yeah it was that damn Alpha Quadrant level.

And yep I recomend Worm's link. BTW the TC was made by my old pal (and others).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

RTCW: Tides Of War has Wolf3D? Didn't know.

Another strange case. To be really honest I bought Jag also for that AVP. And it was some sort of disappointment. No music, awful training maze floor, going through ducts over the acidic bodies of killed Xenomorphs and a gem: respawning Aliens. I had to save in lifts, because if I don't and then load, three Aliens could respawn next to me slicing & dicing me in seconds even though I cleared entire floor before saving. I think it was a good game, but not great. The best Alien-themed game I've completed is... Alien Trilogy. Best Alien mood was in Alien Resurrection - but I haven't completed it. Tough as hell on joypad.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Ouch. The Gran Turismo too. The parts which we were playing the most were 1 & 4. I assume you had the PAL version. Then you should remember that unbelievable Corvette 427 '67 (damn I love old American muscle cars). Poor guy tried to beat me with NSX The Vette was tough to control, but only the Viper could beat it (from the Arcade Mode stock car selection). While in GT4 I remember lots of fabulous races with his favourite BMW M5. Guess what car did I use... *hint* The mighty green killer, hehe *hint*

BTW, the thread changed into random rambling topic, but it brings back some great memories. We used to have much more time for playing, didn't we?

I was speaking idiomatically.

We all know that old muscle cars have crappy handling. If you still have GT1 PAL, just start Arcade and look at the Chevrolet garage. This '67 Vette is only in NTSC-US and PAL. What a pitty it isn't available in the Simulation mode.

GT2 indeed introduced muscle cars in the series (if you don't coun't that Vette). There is a competitive vehicle among oldies: Ford GT40. I love the engine noise and its top speed at 350km/h.

You should really try my fav car in GT4. It's called Buick Special '62. The green killer...

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I played TOCA 2 and V-Rally (PSX & N64). TOCA 2 is easier than original and to be honest I didn't find it that hard. You are right Shin, never brake & turn at the same time. TOCA 2 has one awful, dark and rainy track called Knockhill. But there was one funny raceway called Loch Ranoch where you could push down the AI from the hills - pretty funny. Even though I don't like the idea to go rally with the AI, I loved V-Rally. It had quite interesting locations in that time and it was fast. The bad thing that car could just go crazy if you had contact with a small bush. So all in all GT4 is my fav racer. But the second place goes to Test Drive 5 with its open roads (almost 5 minutes of non-stop driving). And it had muscle cars

FELIPE NO
