Throwbacks for Classic Gamers!

[Arseen]

Lol, thanks. I took 6 months off from writing, came back and it's the same 10 follower
He had a year ago, so I can't help but push it wherever possible.

Yeah, it's definitely worth it, the tv input isn't great unless you use a CRT, but that's what classic games were ment for so it's not the worst handicap

yeah still got few of those beasts in my collection.

Same here, don't think my old 27 inch zenith will ever die

Hope for the best, fear for the worst.

That's one of my mottos in life.

harsh...

How is that harsh? It's my own opinion based on the fact that I don't have time, patience, or desire to commit to most newer games.

Sorry if my need to focus on more important things in life offends you.

I miss when gamesnwere challenging by design, rather than challenging due to poor design

Yup.

I liked the leaps of faith and passing thru walls on purpose, not like nowadays where those things happen because of bad camera angles or hardware not coping with border defining.

Or even worse.... Not being able to beat fallout new Vegas because it freezes every 3 seconds

I think demon souls might be one of the greatest console game in the past 2 gens simply because of it's old school difficulty

True indeed lol, only thing that turned me off about the game is that when you play online it was with a random person rather than a buddy. Thus why its sittin on my shelf atm.

Yeah the online thingy was a bit annoying. Especially the black phantoms (other online players who invade your game and wanna kill ya) were really a pain in the ass. This is why I played it offline mainly. I have to admit though that I never really played more than the first three worlds because it was so difficult that I almost ate my controller several times!

...that I almost ate my controller several times!

I've heard throwing controllers in frustration, but never consuming them. 

[dejimus]

I managed to beat it, bu I had to rely on co-op for most of then second halfnbecause it was too hard. Ther is still black marks on the wood trim in my tv room from the controller hitting the wall.....

What is wrong with todays youth, such violence towards innocent (?) controllers?

 

[dejimus]

Bad temper,  very few games drive me to such rage.... Thankfully
