    Default Is retro Gaming Boring?

    Ok Like I snaged a Nintendo 64 eh. I like got it fer like 4 player Deathmatch, since my buds like to play the ps2 and 3 stuff. So like I get a 64 with 4 great controlers and rumble packs. And like these games eh:
    Turok 1 2 3
    Golden Eye
    Duke Nukem 64
    Mario Kart
    Perfect Dark
    Rampage world and universal tour.

    Ok like so we started with Golden Eye and it was all aboot the inverted settins. Like you can't chang em eh. "I keep lookin up" "I can't get used to this eh."
    So then like I switched to Turok 2 and set up the sticks the same way we use the PS2 n 3. "The controls are too big" "My hand hurts." "I can't aim." "How did you find that bore thing?"
    Ok So I put in Mario Kart. "I can't turn" "The screen is too small" ({It's the same size as all the other PS2 n3 games, Fuckin moron} My thoughts). "My hand hurts." "The contrlol is too heavy."

    "This isn't compatable with my LCD." ({Fuckin Moron} my thoughts)

    So I put in forsaken. "I can't fly this thing." "The screen is too small." >:( "The control is too heavy" TAKE THE RUMBLE PACK OUT "The control is too big" "My thumb hurts." ({FUCK I'M GONNA KILL EM!})

    "Let's play tiger woods." "Is there a golf for this."

    FUCK YOU! I'm leaving!

    I understood. Your mates need a bitch slap - big time. And thats not even true retro gaming. Its only last gen console stuff.

    I still play on my old SNES and would killl for a Megadive.

    Similary, I got retail Dod cos I had a PCI FX5200 and my mate got Cod 1 for his (at the time uber card). Kept telling me that he could not 'get' with Dod cos he liked all the advanced graphics and stuff. He missed out on a treat.

    Now he's playing WoW. Hardly uber-graphics. And shows he's got no idea what a good game is. WoW? - Ugh. No way.+

    And while I remember - try this web site for all your Nintendo needs: http://www.virtualnes.com/

    Ya thanks for the link.
    I've got a nintendo 8 bit collection. tis sweet.
    I'm a retro nut I love the old gamin systems.
    Atari 2600 (2)
    Intellivision
    Odyssey 2
    Coco 3
    3 3do's
    Mame and xarcade stick n trackball.
    Gebnesis

    What realy pissed me off and frustrated me was the fact that those games are great 4player deathmatches. The grafix are great. But all I got was grief for my effort. Me and a different group of buds used to play the 64 all the time. I've got every fps deathmatch game for the ps2. We usually end up on MOH European assault.

    But they seem to want to play tiger woods 08 and quite frankly I get bored with it.
    I just figered I'd get the 64 and taught they would be ok but...
    Faget aboutit

    I'm one of the few who didn't think Goldeneye was good. I guess because I was blessed with online multiplayer early on I HATED the split four screen.

    My bro and a couple of our mates wasted pretty much all of our college years on GoldenEye. Maybe that's how I stumbled into the random degree course/career track I'm on...?

    I like the nostalgia value of old games, but in general I find that the majority just don't stand up to the stuff I play now. There are a few glorious exceptions - whenever I fire up Covert Action on WinUAE I'm lost for hours - but in most cases I think the rose-tinted glasses distort things a little too much.

    Well since my bud got a ps3 he even frowns on tger woods 07. He was at my place and I was playin golden tee 2000 on mame with the trackball. I said I'd bring my pc over.
    Then he said "The grafix suck."
    I said "It's golden tee man. Just like in the bar. This game kiks ass."
    "Still not as good as Tiger woods."
    "I got the fuckin trackball dumbass. Look at this shot."

    right on the green.
    "And I didn't even atakin skywalker the spin on the ball."
