83951 2002-09-28 10:09:00 I have my PC and also a playstation 1, N64 and an old mega drive2. I haven't brought any games for the N64 or PS1 for about a year now but I did find a couple of old classics for the mega drive last month. I went through a rash of PC games but found that hiring them is a better way from the local video shop. I have about 10 PC games and spend more time online playing [gang-wars.com]Gang Wars[ than any other game. Mind you Risk 2 and red alert 2 do get a hell of a thrashing for a change. dipstick01 (445)
83952 2002-09-28 11:44:00 I just recently bought a PS2, it cost quite alot of $$$ for a package deal which included an extra controller and a memory card + 2 games (Tekken 4 & Metal Gear Solid 2), i had a N64 but that has gone out of the norm now so i don't buy any games for that any more. N64 only offered a few very good titles like Perfect Dark, Zelda - Majora's Mask, Golden Eye, Smash Brothers and Zelda - The Ocarina of Time. Hard to find many shops selling N64 software or hardware that's even older that 1½ years.

cheers,

83953 2002-09-28 12:16:00 Well I'm not to ashamed to admit this but

Went down and saw a mate that runs and arcade compnay down our way. and bought an upright (but empty) console arcade case. Fitted it out with a 21inch TV and placed a Pentium 266 inside. Loaded it up with all the arcade games (out of copyright of course) and i have "space invaders" for free, Just like it was in the 80s (sad hey)

Oh well.... I will get a life one day if i can find one thats free

83956 2002-09-28 14:41:00 I never used to buy games since I had a CD WRITER, but have started purchasing games that are GOOD (I hate spending money on games to find out they suck). At the moment buying about 7 / year, recent titles include Dungeon Siege, SOF 2, Renegade, RTCW and have ordered Unreal Tournament 2003. Also own a Playstation, but havent bought any games for that since I had it modded. Thinking of buying a PS2, but unfortunately DVD-R Burners are still too expensive :) Dragonslayer (512)

Where you been! Sounds cool. My soccer club has an old arcade unit and I am tempted to see if I can either get it going or do soemthing like that.
How'd you rig the controls? Are they using the joystick port?

83958 2002-09-28 19:57:00 It's so hard to know if a game is any good from a review. In all honestly it is hard to write a review to get across the idea that a game rocks. Some reviews say you should rush out and buy every game. That's bollocks.

Thanks for this people, I appreciate it.

I often get freebies from my brother, who goes thru about 1 a month.
