Retro Gaming

Was just chatting with a friend about the old skool games consoles/computers - Commodore 64, Spectrum ZX, Atari 2600 and was reminiscing about some of the classic games.

Combat on the Atari is probably my earliest memory of a computer game. I also remember a game called Tank Attack, but I can't recall what this was like and what console it was on - anyone remember this or have any other favourite retro games of their own to share?

    Ha! I've the memories of 'The Duel' and "Wolfestine 3D'. However, Othello remained my favorite for long time.

    Wolfenstein 3D! That rang a bell with me so I googled it and found this Wolfenstein 3D - YouTube - I think I might have played this on a friend's PC once or twice. Love the sound effects!

    Yep! That's the one. 😁 Any Metal Gear fans out there? That game kept me hooked for about 8 months!

    Well guys, for a real retro gaming I think that we will need a retro console, too. Take a look, I found this: #-Link-Snipped-#

    I've seen some of this guy's stuff before. He's always ripping apart games consoles and rebuilding them into lots of weird and wonderful things.

    I think this is the Atari console he builds:

    I've played in NINTENDO and SEGA Gaming Consoles, when I was a KID. 😉
