Oh MY God

I cant believe that no1 has mentioned Half Life the all time greatest game for gameplay and lastabilty. Half life is still around in counter strike form and it was made in 97 for gods sake.

Besides who wants to sit around playing adventure or roleplays when u can clock an FPS in 6hrs?

Improves reaction time which can be usfull for avoiding unwanted incidents :roll:

Oh and of course GT3/ concept goes without saying

pong taken to a new level..

oh and that reminds me of pang.. who would of thought shooting baloons with harpoon like spikes could be so addictive

hmm.. there goes work for today.. the rest of my day will be spent thinking about old games :P

The game was called Twin cobra. Awesome powerups!

good to see ph1 another hard core old school game lover.

None of this boring doom clone games that is flooding the markets these days.

What about Turrican? That was one awesome game too!

I have so many emulators at home for all different systems. I love my old school games.

What about links golf?

Lemmings?

Back in the old days graphics were shit but gameplay was great.

Now the games are just shallow rehashes of each other.

wasnt links for the pc?

hmm yeah turrican was good, and that reminded me of Gods :P

and the earlier bitmap brothers classics, xenon and xenon 2

vertical scrolling bliss

hmm, and darius, r-type clone on the amiga

yeah i agree, games today are shallow with no challenge... quick save has killed gameplay...

3 lives is all anyone needs to complete a game :)

which was the one with the betty boo songs? xenon 2? or gods?

all i know is I worshipped the bitmap brothers heh

yah xenon 2 was mad, the shop to buy powerups was cool, once you had most of the weapons you were pretty much unstoppable..

also left/right and up/down scrolling, and having to scroll back down the screen when u took the wrong path heh

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
