Old and/or Underrated Games

[Skynetmain]

I might as well finally say something. I have to set down my DS (or DSi), Wii-mote, Wavebird, and 360 controller some time and when I do, it better be for a good cause. I tried not to say anything since I talk retro gaming in some stuff I write. I gotta do this console by console since I have owned a lot and that is how they are organized in my mind. (I'll only go to last generation of consoles to spare everyone ).

Shoot. These are all I could think of or find. They are only the ones I consider as classic or ones that I feel set some sort of standard. I know I am missing some. Sorry for taking up the whole page!

Does anyone here play collectoons?
I just started playing in december and it's a lot like cartoon orbit -- very underrated. It uses cartoons from all over; disney, nickelodeon, wb, anime, etc..
I wish more players joined to make it even more fun!
If you have questions about it let me know, but you can register here if you'd like and check it out for yourself. I was really upset when they closed orbit, so this has been occupying a lot of time i would usually spend playing neo.. but since it hasn't been that great lately, this is my release!

[Regan]

Battletoads ! I used to LOVE that game!! Quite possibly my favourite two player game ever. And yes, I did finish the game. Once. And Earth Worm Jim! I remember there being one level that I could never beat, but I don't remember which one it was. Also, that cartoon was ace.

Really old series of games for really really really old computers...

Dizzy

:CLOAD "A:/DIZZY.EXE" I think was the way to run it... no mice back then.

I'm such a fogey.

[Ange]

I could execute MS DOS commands at the age of 3. Haha. Just to play tetris and my Sesame Street game.

Diablo

Best. Game. Ever. I anticipate the latest Diablo flick with much vigor and fervour and everything else passionate.

I was crushed when they announced that there would be nothing after D3... but I knew it was a bluff deep inside.

[Skynetmain]

Don't worry, Kym. You have another 10-15 years before D3 comes out. This is Blizzard we're talking here.

[3dfan]

Well, Diablo and Grim Fandango used to be my fav ones, when I was a kid!

[Lee]

Don't worry, Kym. You have another 10-15 years before D3 comes out. This is Blizzard we're talking here.

Too true! I'll be an old geezer when we get StarCraft 3.

[schizopath]

Way back when I still used to play quite a lot of console games, most of them were quite under-rated, actually more of over-criticised. Haha.
