I hear ya, me and my 2 brothers and 2 sisters, would sit there and play for hours.. It was kinda pointless because we would usually mimic each others choices..
SpyHunter was pretty cool, you could drive into the back of those trucks and get some cool stuff.. If I recall correctly.
River Raid, gotta love that game.
I''d have to go look in my basement at the exact title of this game, but we had this kinda spaceship game for the larger atari, I think it was the 5200? I can''t remember, I know we owned 2 seperate ataris, one with larger cassetes, the other with smaller ones.. But you were this little spaceship and you woud fly blowing up all these pieces to a larger spaceship.. turrets, etc, etc.. We also had this ''nasa space sim'' where you had to launch your rocket and complete missions.
Wow, I think I have a tear in my eye.. I remember the good old days.. Memories.. in the corner of my mind.. ^_^

I still consider myself the master at worms armageddon.. Seriously, People see my skills with the ninja rope and its the kinda thing they tell their friends about.. I can get into/out of any situation with my trusty ninja rople.

Same.. but I am not talking Armageddon, I am talking ORIGINAL... That ninja rope is excellent... you can get from one side of the map to the other usually... I love dragonballing people off the edge though

I always liked load runner.Very nice little game.
Or the first Mario games!Real fun.
But from the games era i mostly like the 1985-1995 era.
Well i had some really great times then!
And now i love this revival through abandonware and emulation.
But i really don''t get it why some people are against abandonware.
I mean since their companies do not support them anymore and they have no profit from them why shouldn''t i download and copy them?
The same thing applies for emulation of old games(not n64 emulation and other consoles still sold).
Let''s keep computer game history alive!
Support abandonware!

I love the menu music for wolf 3d , kinda erie and if you listen to it for too long , it sticks in your head and wont go . The only other modern gam with such definative music is UT just after you fire it up.
Does anyone remember a racing game for (I think) the NES. I''m pretty sure it was called ''Built to Win'' or something like that. It was the coolest racing game. You started with a POS car, but you won money from races. Then you''d either improve your car with beter stuff or buy a new, better car. You could even go to Vegas and hit the slot machines.
I love this game, but nobody I talk to has ever heard of it. If any body has a rom of this game for an emulator, please let me know. I have an emulator with about a million roms, but not this one!

Does anyone remember a text-adventure game called Zyll? It was made by IBM a long time ago. I thought it was much better than Zork.

Freddy Parkas was released to both PC and Amiga, I think. The (nowadays dead 
) computer magazine I read gave it good recension on the PC platform. Weird cuz it was an Amiga magazine (And it rocks so hard! I still read them sometimes).
What was that Lemonade Stand game about?
