RE: Computer Gaming in the 80's - Things has changed a bit
Ha the Atari 2600 was my first game console.
That was Epic!!
I think my first adventure was raiders of the lost ark, Indiana Jones and pitfall lol.
I even had a sex game, yes that was revolutionary in those days.
All other pictures of those handhold consoles gives me the chills, it's a blast from the past.
Its great to see them again, from my childhood.
Let's say we are the first pioneers of gaming!!!
WE KNOW!!
There was also the commodore 64 and then the Amiga 500, that was epic with Larry and micro soccer.
Damn the 80s was a great time but...... what i see now on this moment is just insane.
My 7 year old son play games what i dreamed of, but hey in those days, we had nothing better and just filled the rest of the game and graphics with our fantasy, that was good enough.:)
Great post!!
Hi @sinzzer, I also had the Commodore 64 and will never forget Gyrus :) The sound effects was awesome ... For those days I mean. But before my Commodore I had a ZX Spectrum 64K :)
LOL Zx Spectrum 64k.
THen you are a elder in gaming!!
That was before my time, i am born in 77 and i got the atari 2600 when i was 9. I begged my father for months lol.
But a friend of mine had the commodore 64, aah those days where fun.
We had to w8 ages for the game to work, with those tapes.
And always those fast moves with the joystick when we played a game like the olympics, but mostly we played micro soccer, or player manager.
Everyone created his own teams, and then we play with each other.
Yep the good old days, and now i am play games together with my family lol
Me and my woman and two kids play blackops zombie haha
All gamers will never grow up and I do not have any problem with that :)
Lol yes indeed.
My and my woman played World of Warcraft for years, side by side.
And our kids played it to.
I mean there is nothing wrong with having fun and just have some fun with your family, i am doing that and it's GREAT!!!
But i also learn that gaming is just to clear your mind, not to make a sport about it. its a reward after doing something for yourself.
I wish i had that when i was a kid, but at the end of the day, i got what i dreamed of as a kid, and that is playing games with my family and nobody is complaining about that i play games. :)
lol back in the days, what are you doing behind the tv??
Let me watch TV, stop playing and go outside!! Stupid games blablabla
So i know exactly what my son feels and play along with it :)
