anybody else find that the games that you could beat back in the day, you can't get past like the second level now? man i go out to the store and get stuff like the midway classics for ps2 and i swear i get my ass kicked on all of them.
i can't get past level 5 on mario brothers anymore

I can still rock them the way I did back in the day. I'll be getting NES busy all weekend!

MOTHER FUCK!!!! WII launches in a few weeks!!!

LOL me too!

i got the atari classics cd-rom for my pc. i suck at all the classics, except missile command. asteroids gives me fucking fits of rage now...simple ass game

isn't it amazing though how like 20 of your favorite games all fit on one little disc now?

Fury said:

Isn't it amazing that even though they are completely low tech, they are STILL fun as hell??

Fury said:

Truly depends on how much I'm "into" playing the particular game. Sure as children we had much more mental effort to put forth in wasting time.

Now a days if a video game I get has an "easy" setting in the options, I take it.

MickG said:

Whereas before if it had a motherfuckingimpossible level before you hadn't completed the game unless you completed it at the hardest level.

Easily satisfied now

PREDOMINANT said:

No.

Fury said:

I have one of those Atari discs, too. I can still do pretty good on Adventure and Yar's Revenge. The others I haven't played as much. It kinda sucks that they didn't put any of the games they needed licenses for....like Superman, Raiders of the Lost Ark, etc. They could leave off E.T. though.

Yep. I used to be able to blow through all the Sonic the Hedgehog games like they were nothing, now I suck ass at them. It makes me feel old, like I'm not as sharp as I once was, LOL.

PREDOMINANT said:

That's not old school either...

THIS is old school

I just got a Gamecube early this year and holy crap, it does take forever got anywhere in games now a days. It takes like a month or so to beat a game (if you play a little each day). But they are a lot of fun! I don't know. I love all the systems I've had.
