Your 3 fav games ever?

[REDGTT]

Xenon 2 had betty boo.

yeah man Bitmap brothers rocked!

yeah I love the crazy cool looking alien guy with headphones on selling the weopons for the ship.

man I use to get excited when i saw a photorealistic picture in any game back then because there werent many around and they were just static. we use to call them back then as digitised pictures.

What about parallax scrolling? Remember that?

thats reminds me of Shadow of the beast!

[ph1]

do you remember airborne rangers on the c64? another microprose classic

[REDGTT]

Yeah Gun ship allowed you to send wingmen. It was like wow what a cool game.!

Thats why games back then amazed me because there were so many new things to discover. I loved sprite graphics back then.

Polygons have killed gameplay.

You should of heard Turrican on the SNES if you liked good video game music like I do.

[AndyMac]

Green Beret!!!!!!!!!!

[REDGTT]

yeah Micropose made great games too like Top Squaron or something in the arcade. Werent they the champs at flight sims?

Out of this world and flashback were top notch games too.

Man I miss the older companies who made great games in the late eighties and early nineties when i was really hooked onto games.

Data east

bitmap Bros

Konami

Ocean

California games!!!!

[ph1]

for all those who have no clue what xenon 2 was

thats the actual resolution the game ran at too 320x200

oh the marble game was marble madness

most of the games were such simple concepts but were so addictive..

[ph1]

yeah green beret... that was one seriously hard game... broke many a joystick with that one heh

[REDGTT]

Yeah joysticks were the prefered favourites before joypads and the joysticks use to have only 1 button LOL

Xenon 2 rocked. I am trying to get a Amiga Emulated Version.

Amiga 500 had the best soundchip back then.

IK+ on it sounded frieken awesome!

[ph1]

And Flying Shark or 1942!!!

[REDGTT]

ph1 you are way cool!

i always wondered if there was someone out there like me who still loved these games.

can please email just xenon2 on [email protected]

Thanks man.

Do you remember in xenon2 in the shop where you could get the ultimate power I think called Nashua or something and it lasted ten seconds only but massive power up!

What what double density disks that you drilled a hole and it became highdensity disk hehehe

[ph1]

yeah flying shark on c64 was good, tanks and planes to shoot

i never really liked 1942, and the one before it? 1940?

thats reminded me of the vertical scrollers on the amiga, where one player was a helicopter and one was a jeep... cant remember the name of it but unreal game

[ph1]

yeah and u could punch a hole on the floppies and they became double sided haha

[AndyMac]

yeah...it was all silver or alot of it was silver.........and the copter could fire straight and downwards....

it was really big when it first came out...just reminded me of choplifter.

[REDGTT]

yeah man the game was called SILKWORM.

One f**ken awesome game.

One guy was a jeep and teh other a helicopter! YEAH BABY!

1924 was the first one and then they released 1943 and then 1941. strange.

[AndyMac]

Another good one : Conan...remember chopping therer heads off!!!

[ph1]

silkworm, thats it!!
