Classic Gaming

[Siphorous]

If you like your RPGs, then get Skies of Arcadia: Legends for the gamecube. It's awesome. Totally.

Original on dreamcast was good but the Legends version just added that bit more everywhere.

It's crazy to me that the Gamecube is considered "classic" gaming now. Damn I'm getting old.

It's kind of classic. I wouldn't really consider the gamecube classic, but I would consider some of it's games classic.

 

[Siphorous]

Yeah Nic, kinda as 36 said for me. Although not a 'classic' perhaps by age (yet) and looked on as fondly as perhaps some earlier consoles may have been - I felt it had a lot of potential and it was kind of a shame that it never got the take up of previous consoles.

Recently I like to play classic games remakes for iPad... I've played Winzer and North&South. There are some more waiting to be tried... Bards's Tale, Prehistorik, Mortal Combat...

Hey I played that when I was a child. I don't think I got an NES til the late 80s. My grandfather used to have a Commodore? The one that looked like a computer keyboard.

Yup.. It was a great game when it first came out..

I also had the first Commodore 64 and then went straight to a AST 386SX .

Final Fantasy (the US versions I played 1,2,3 VII, VIII)
Bionic Commando
Double dragon for the NES (I,II, III)
all of the metal gears.. i mean all of them!!
Contra (all of them)
Zelda and its many iterations on the NES, SNES - not much of the wii and Game Cube versions
Super Mario 1,2,3 N64, and the SNES super mario world!

Nobunagas Ambition - OMG memories of epic 2 hour stand offs with my cousins in this game!

I need a room to set up all my gaming consoles and get new ones!

I still have my amiga 500, haven't set it up yet but when i do i will play kick off 2 and xenon 2. I also remember lotus esprit being an excellent racing game for two players. Anyone else still got their amiga?

If playing ported version of old JRPG games to android counts, then I guess I am also doing classic/retro gaming recently. My first Final Fantasy game is FFVII, so I didn't have the opportunity to play the earlier FF games. Good thing Square Enix decided to port the old FF games to android platform, which gives gamers like me, who wasn't able to play the FF games prior to FFVII, the opportunity to play and experience old school JRPG.

I always go back to playing old games. I was just playing Diddy Kong Racing and other N64 ones. I had a sega genesis first but I'm not that interested in its games now. N64 just has so many gems.

I wonder how long it will take for the Xbox 360 and PS3 to be considered classic gaming. Ha ha.

I love older games. I still fire up the earlier final fantasy games and a few others now and then. Some games people claimed were mediocre I actually liked, like YS III Wanderers from Ys.

I'm not really a classic fan but as I grew up with the Pokemon games I never get bored of the games. The mix of RPG and raising your own Pokemons to become the best, is very addictive.
