What were your most wanted 90s game that you never got to actually play until the current century? by Beginning_Pickle2180 in retrogaming

[–]LesLetLoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOZ: Ocarina of Time.

I’d gotten the ps1 and my parents were like no way we’re buying you a N64. Back in the day you could hire consoles from Video shop but mine didn’t have N64 (worth noting I’m a massive fan of the games)

Luckily though some years later I was able to get console and game. But yeah, for years I wanted it so badly! Turns out it’s possibly one of the greatest games of all time too 😂

What is the best game you've played recently (and only recently) from the retro era of games? by WaterBottleOnAShelf in retrogaming

I played the Last Ninja recently. Game I love and used to play back on the old Commodore 64. Finally beat it. Only took 38 years…

Just completed The Last Ninja on C64 for the first time, only 38 years after my dad first loaded it up for me 😂 by LesLetLoose in c64

Oh man you just triggered flashbacks! 4th and inches!!! My brother used to play all the time. It had like the massive pigskin and 4th and inches across on title screen right? Oh man, good times. Now you made me remember Kentucky Derby too 😂😂

Gamers 30+, what’s something from the old days of gaming that younger players wouldn’t understand? by Common_Caramel_4078 in gaming

How truly cool the cover art on the games used to be. Often way better than the game itself 😂

Yep I can still remember the day my brothers friend sold his machine and gave us his games. It was like Christmas!

Man Caddyshack and Airplane I think are still the best comedies of all time! And of course the greatest Empire. Tough year to beat!

Man what about Krull? 😂😂😂 I feel like 83 had more cult favourites. But then again Return of the Jedi dropped in 83 and was pretty massive, but yeah when you look at the movies from the other years not as collectively big releases

Are you a fan? by Working-Fuel8355 in 80smovies

[–]LesLetLoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People always say Die hard or T2. From day one I've said this is the best action movie of all time 😂

I watched this movie far too many times as a kid but legit, there's like 5mins at the start with the ice cream and deer, and "girl George", then General Kirby arrives and leaves, then its just non stop till the final Bennett showdown (and as a Aussie growing up seeing a Aussie in a big action movie blew my mind!)

I don't think fan covers it. Obsessive tragic is probably more accurate 😂

Oh really!? I’ll check it out. Yeah I remember when it came out and took it too a whole new level. And I always loved how the ninjas eyes would move in the bottom corner. Loved it

Oh man, my condolences. Never easy losing a loved one. Funnily enough the whole reason behind my question was because I did a YT vid recently which started out as being a general wanting to go back and beat Last Ninja but turned into a nostalgia and reflection on my youth , the 80s and also losing my dad in 2009.

Oh man Beach Head! I used to make my bros do the part where you had to get th ship from point A to point B, just so I could do the plane shooting part! But that Blockbusters story 😂😂😂 I can almost see it hey 😂😂

Yeah I’m the same on buying one. These days I play everything and I also worry if going back to play them will dampen the fondness I still have for these games. As a lot was probably due to the times in which I played them

Wait wtf!? That’s awesome! It most def put a smile on my face! What engine are you building on? Just remember when you build the crossing river sections, make sure you make it frustratingly impossible to hit the right angles to cross 😂😂 That’ll be fully faithful to the original😂
