I keep thinking i should try out a few newer games, but keep going back to the old faves!


Can't beat them! Paperboy is just great!
Lemmings is addictive as well.

But all these latest PC games need an insane amount of memory etc to run.

(excuse my lack in PC gaming knowledge, it's me remember)

1952 and erm a version of Tic-Tac-Toe. The game was programmed on a EDSAC vaccuum-tube computer, which had a cathode ray tube display.

A proper relic.

Dave playing sollitaire and tarzan, oh the irony!

1st game about as most people know was pong, followed by classics such as space invaders, asteroids, pacman, etc.

1st game I played was the legendary streets of rage on the master system.
