Following calls to make video games more true to life, a new version of the classic "Out run" has just been launched:

 

just drive past them all in excess of 150mph...is that how fast you need to be going to slip through...???

 

watch out for pedestrians though, eh?

 

lol - hey I do have a light hearted side as well.

 

 

im sure we all enjoy healthy debate or we wouldnt be here in the first place would we...?

 

Indeed!

 

God I used to play that game for hours

 

You must have been rubbish then, start to finish was less than ten minutes

 

ocean breeze or splash wave..

dee daa dee daa dee dah dah

M

 

Magical Sound Shower!!

*sniff* youth, where did you go?

 

i used to luv that game

who remembers the motorbike sega mastersystem one, the one in a card u inserted

i think it was hang on

 

Yes it was hang on. Then they made super hang on

 

PMSL You're kidding right? It used to take me 15 mins just to put the money in

 

Those where the days....I used put my hand into my dads jacket pocket,take out as many 10p coins as I could find,then run to the fun fair straight to the arcade.When Outrun came out I went crazy,a ferrari that moved.....WOW.
Never got the Hang of it though and only managed to play it on my Amstrad cpc464 (what a load of **** that was).Super Hang on was my best game,the Turbo was awesome.
Im sure there is a new version of outrun recently where you can race against each other with a choiuce of ferraris including an Enzo.

AHHH those where the days....it was just the sight of my Dad with a slipper in his hand when I got home that would spoil it....was still worth it though.

Anyone remember the shootem ups? Nemesis,R type,Raiden?
How about beat em ups like Bad dudes vs Dragon ninja,Double dragon?
anyone played Gauntlet recently?Commando?

BTW,dont talk to me about Tekken and street fighter,not my sort of thing

 

thanks mate thats the one the later ones got better with bats and stuff to hit other bikers

i was still young then when the first sega came out we got the free game sonic the hedgehog the original was the best, i will never ever forget that, the first day when we got it my dad got his first ever attack a cardiac arrest, it was a sad day and he was saved that time may he rest in peace

i loved the old game days , my first pc was the commodore 64 and the one before that my sister had this old consol with 2 sticks built in, u mind the see saw game u need to catch the ball and not miss it for points and the old tennis game

anyone remember strider and barbarian

 

FYI, b3ta.com are running a "if games where real life compo" at the moment..

 

Bloody hell I've still got my old Amstrad CPC 464 up in the loft somewhere!! Never had Outrun for it though I don't think!

Yes there is a new version of Outrun on the Xbox, you can play the original game on it aswell, have to say the original is still my favourite

All of a sudden I fancy digging my old megadrive out.....

 

Damn - my source discovered

 

R-Type.... one of the best shoot em ups ever created

Finished that many many times and still found myself going back to play it again.... actually it was the best way of getting value for money
