Re: Old School/Retro Gaming: What are You Playing?
MY SNES has been collecting dust for the past 10 yrs b/c I got mad and threw the tv at the wall (I'm well beyond that point in my life) and ripped the coaxial cable in two. I realized this week that the composite cable for the Gamecube works with the SNES, so I dug the SNES and games out of the garage (took me 5 hours to find it all) and I'm having the time of my life! I always hated Starfox and Super Star Wars b/c they were too daggum hard, but now they have been a blast and maybe due to my age, a whole lot easier. Who knew?!?

Taking a break from Uncharted 3 to play Majora's Mask. I got it for free on the VC, and it's definitely NOT my favorite Zelda game by any means.

And so it is with most NES games for me it seems...either beatable within a few hours or completely impossible no matter how much I played it. Never really seemed to be much in between. |
Re: Old School/Retro Gaming: What are You Playing?
Some games took me years to finally beat, but some I think are impossible due to poor controls. I think both Skate or Die games fall in the poor controls category.

Pac-man Championship Edition DX is awesome. New game that brings back that old school Pac-Man feel. It's addictive.

Re: Old School/Retro Gaming: What are You Playing?
Didn't see it mentioned, but if you have an Ipad (or iphone, although it's tougher with a dpad control), check out Activition Anthology. Not the same as having the old 2600 system, but for $7 you get 45 old school games, including Pitfall. This is a direct port, not one of the crappy remakes they have tried over the years.

God bless Activision for all they did for the industry.
