| Not ragging on you bro, but what games do you like? I love the new games much more though I have memories of those old games. |

You sir, have good taste. On a semi-related note, I played Street Fighter IV the other day - my mind was blown. _________________ | |

My alltime favorite video game is Xevious. Toho- I used to have the stand-up arcade game in my warehouse flat back in the early 90's! It was fun for about a month. Until we all conquered all levels. Then it just sat there until I traded it for an old Kawasaki streetbike. |

| I still own a lot of those games.
Marios, Battletoads, TMNT, Robocop, Double Dragon, Galaga, Asteroids, Pac-Man and my all time fav Castelvania 1 and 3.
Im also a huge fan of Super Nes games and Sega Genesis games.
I own a 360 now and play on that but those older games stood the test of time. Thats something I can say for very few of todays games. | |

| Its all about the roleplaying in my opinion...specially the old ones. For some reason those old games made you feel good inside when you got to the ending credits, I dont really feel that way with the new games. my favs... Xenogears Valkyrie Profile(ps1) Legend of mana Chrono cross Final fantasy 9 Harvest moon 64 Paper Mario Resident evil Resident evil 2 On the note of Resident evil I cant fricken wait for 5 to come out, its gonna be spectacular! | |

"Slopboop" is one of the funnier variations I've seen. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

| Lies and slander. The old games are surely the early arcade classics like Asteroids, Arkanoid, Pac Man and various others, right? _________________ | |

| Does anyone remember an arcade game (circa late 80s) called "Xenophobe?" It was a cartoony shoot-em-up style game that was obviously inspired by the "Aliens" movie. You played a character protecting your space station from an infestation of aliens that started out as "eggs," then grew into big green toothy things if you didn't shoot/blow them up fast enough. That was an awesome game! I'd give my left nut to have one of those in my house! _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

Yeah I remember that one. That's how I learned what "xenophobe" meant. Music and video games have helped my vocabulary so much over the years. |
