Anyone remember the original Atari consoles?
My favourite game was the one where a square fired a smaller square at another square, which exploded into squares. State of the art they were.

Also can remember spending at least 5 weeks copying code for Speccy games out of magazines and then the flipping things wouldn't work.

Combat was a cracking game on the Atari, very basic but it was two player so you could shoot your mates, brother, sister, dad whoever.....and if you could master swerving the shot or drive into the wall and reappear on the other side of the maze !!

I had an intellivison console rather than an atari, cracking graphics for the day and a disc control rather than a joystick.

One thing I'll say is that at least the game writers were forced to be more imaginative than they are now.

Re Mortal Kombat

How did I forget that, was briliant at that game on the Snes. Street Fighter was just a button-mashing fest but with MK you had to think. And you could do fatalities and babalities! What more do you want.
Rayden Vs Lu Kang fights were the best. "Wa-daaah!"

Can't believe Goldeneye or Super Mario 64 haven't been mentioned yet. Brilliant games. Really enjoy the Assassin's Creed games, haven't started the latest one yet though as I know it would interrupt my studies. Finished Batman: Arkham City which was a brilliant game. Can only play Fifa if amongst a group of friends so don't really get that much game time out of it. Probably get the most playing time out of Football Manager, think the latest one is brilliant.
