No thought required, just spawn and GOOOOOOOOOOO

So, as some of you already know, I like to collect games.

By saturday, I will have a Sega Saturn and hopefully a WiiU added to that shrine below my TV. Only problem is... I'm still lacking in terms of older games...

So I compiled this list.

Those are older games that I think would be GREAT in my collection.

One problem... I need input.


Anyone know of anything I should add? What are classics? Emulation is completely out of the question.



Also, for those who might ask why Darkstalkers 2 is on that list, but not 1 and 3... Its because I'm just going to get Darkstalkers Resurrection, which has 1 and 3, but not 2, when it comes out on PSN. But for the most part, I prefer games on the original hardware.

I have all of that except for DK64.

I actually have an Atari 2600 and 5200, who two huge crates full of games. Only reason I don;t display them is because... well... The only atari game I actually like is "Adventure"... The rest, I actually prefer the arcade versions.

Don't worry, I don;t actually call myself either of those, I just wanted a title that was quick to read and easy to understand.

I was honestly stuck on the dk original game for a year. Jack in the box was tough though. Every level was just awesome fav was the one with the tomatoes.

Quick, quick snap of some of my N64 games.

Used to have a good SNES collection, but alas, I sold them.

I know right. Have they even made a game yet? My other fav was Hal by naughty dog they are making last of us so there is hope for adventure genre.

On the Left

Godshatter: I can go all the way with someone without being attracted to them.
CamCamm: How does that work?
Godshatter: I'm easily aroused by anything that moves. It's a curse.
Brain says 'No, that's ugly', body says 'ugly is fine with me'.

I wish I would have kept my old games :/

Ever played daggerfall? Old DOS game of the role playing genre. Very fun and was made in 1996. Gameplay

Oh, it's map is twice the size of great britain, and it is 100% free.

Download the game

Download the installer

And once that is all done, type "EyeofArgonia.exe" into your search box and hit it, then hit the big "In english" button, and click start. This increases render distance. FYI, this game can run on any modern computer with ease. Last thing, it may take time to get used to, and you'll have to tinker with the controls, but it is very fun to play and extremely adventurous with such a massive map.

Enjoy, OP.

Because they have been infested with reddirt scum. I want to talk about videogames, and not have children use buzzwords like "aged" and "Holds up", and I don't want the thread to be spammed to hell with people saying that collecting is stupid and I should emulate.

Videogames can not age. Videogames are not milk.
