any game sitesI

Sorry to butt in on the games, but does anyone know of a good games site for my 17 year old son. he can remember ones we used to play on years ago & remembered 'catchphrase'. That i think was on 'uproar', don't know if it's still around.

It's nice he's asking for a site like that cos you know what 17 year olds are like!

Thanks

Goes all misty eyed... does anyone remember loosing whole weekends playing Lemmings? :D
Perhaps you are all too young!!

 

ohhhh lemmings seen it in game store last week for the playstation 2 just had to get it..think i first had it on com 64 or atari..shall be loosing a weekend or two :D

 

Believe it or not we had a complete version on the Spectrum! then Amiga, and there was 'oh no more Lemmings' and then the 'Tribes' - more frustration :D

 

blimey sensible soccer and cannon fodder :D think i had just got my first job, may have gone on sick to play them :D s,soccer the best football game ever..anyone play daley tompsons decathlon

 

We never had an upgrade on our 1200. Couldn't afford it. It was why we eventually and reluctantly bought a PC. :(
My son was the Sensi Soccer fanatic.
Mine was Apidya and Road Rash.
Daley T's decathlon was designed with the joystick companys in mind, playing that would wear one out in a month. :D

 

you are correct strongy kids have got it to easy now i remember going to school with blisters on the fingers playing daley t`s decath..what was the very first game console called the one that was just 2 little blocks hitting a sqre up and down and the beep did your head in,,,think it was on the idea of tennis but it was nothing like :D

 

That was the mighty "PONG" the first video game.....
I was the Spectrum 48k generation....Space Invaders ...Lunar Lander.....Meteroids....Breakout.. et al
I never ever got past left , right and fire ! :D :D

 

I didn't have any of those posh home computers, just had a basic Acorn Atom until I got my first PC. The only game I could get to play on it was called 'Star Trek' (I think).Lemmings (Arrgghh!)I had a PC version of that. I gave a copy to my sister who later said she had to confiscate it because all the family were so adicted to it they almost came to blows

 

We have always be really big on the games systems we had and maybe still have for that matter in the attic a A500, A600 and the biggie A1200!

We used to have gaming matche weekends one of the best games on the Amiga was Mega Ball.
One of us would give it a go and finish off with a 30 grand score and be really pleased with ourself only for the next person to have a go and smash that score by another 20 grand needless to say both Bob and I gave it up when four year old Harry slaughtered us with a 1000 grand score and what makes matters worst he is left handed! :eek:

Just like to add the hand-held Sega Game Gear was a big hit for us and we still have a few of them around the place just a real shame that the volume seem to not work after a year or so.Hel.xxx.
