Heyo

Any console gamers on this board? What are you playing?

Escapism is my new friend. Got a xbox360, and played Fight Night 3 and Gears of War until I got game claw. Oh yeah and Defender which I havent played since I was a kid. Its as hard as I remember.But now I have unlimited quarters. Oh yeah and Joust, which still rules. Retrogaming on an xbox 360 feels like sacriledge tho, but I just keep doing it.

Yeah for a while there I was playing the atari classics.
Didnt have joust though damnit!

Got hooked on centipede heheh and maybe lil lunar lander and missle command ok lil ateroids also but that game is more frustration then fun anymore

I kill people on Medal of Honor allied assault more then anything.
Nothing like jumping out of a 3rd story window swan like down onto an unsuspecting victim and right before you make contact fill em' with lead!!
Get some!! you peak oil zombie MOFO's get some!!

Not me. I was a Ms Pac Man addict 20 years ago, but I kicked the habit and never looked back! That whole experience was fun with all the beeping sounds and those little critters chasing you up and down the alleys while you tried to gobble up cherries and post the highest point totals. It got faster as you got better, a total addiction. When my wrist started aching I gave it up and haven't played any sort of video games since the early 80s.

I love playing Super Mario 3 on my Wii. When I'm not breaking the stupid straps. I took care of it with military grade 50/50 cord.

I am completely addicted to EverCrack. In the past I never would have let this obsession go this far but after swallowing too many red pills and reading way too doomer porn I find it hard to care.

Loved playing the Ultima series. Especially 4, 5 and 7. Better storyline than most games out there today, and yes, I still remember how Stones sounds like.

I liked how Origin packed extra trinkets with the game boxes. My cloth maps and pentagram coin is still somewhere in my storeroom. Too bad the game series had a crappy ending.

Still not sure whether I should go for the 360 or the PS3. And if I do go for a new console, I'd have to take time off Guild Wars, and I don't really have much time for games nowadays.

Hooked on Lunar Lander. I can play for hours and I can't explain why.

[AirlinePilot]

I went to E3 this year for a flight sim group I write for. They had a section of older gaming consoles and stand up arcade units. One was Missile Command, and one was Lunar Lander. They played FLAWLESSLY.

I think I was on that Lunar Lander one for like an hour! I use to love that game. Gets pretty insanely hard at times too.

I cut my teeth on Battle Zone and Missile Command in college.

[NEOPO]

stop making me feel old!!

I cut my teeth on pong and I still recall the day they unloaded the first space invaders in town....

"It was a cold winter evening and the fat kid on the back of the vending truck had snot frozen to his lip"
"it was magical as the stand up came down off the back of the truck on a hydraulic lift"
"the art work on the side had visions of blasting aliens dancing through my head well before the cord was plugged in and the game was happily accepting our quarters"

Lunar lander is so much better with the throttle handle on the stand up isnt it?

Ahhh now I know whats wrong with Novus....
Seek help for "evercrack" and "asherons crack" addictions

PMS - yeah if mrs pacman got you then stay away from todays games as they will eat a persons soul and come back for seconds and thirds etc etc.....

Anyone remember the guy who committed suicide because he lost his everquest character?

This all started with dungeons and dragons and I am proud to have been a d20 rolling +5 Vorpal weapon swinging participant of that era.
All this, hit points, body points, health points, life points, armor class, defense class et al originated from D&D.
Long live Gary Gygax!!

Lastly micronazi's Age of empires the conquerors is the best strategy RTS to date and I extend an open challenge to any of you feeble minded fothermuckers - bring it!!

Modded Xbox. Not ready to spring for a 360 or a PS3. Got my first game pains playing Space Invaders and Donkey Kong. The Pong machine was just starting to gather dust when I first hit the arcades.
