Panic feeling...

trace · Post by **trace** » 11/03/2005 - 8:28

This morning when i watched my wife playing the Gamecube with the fancy grafic and the nice music and all i got a wierd panic feeling that i NEED to have a C64 to play on , with the square not so fancy grafic and the 3 channel plipping music

Anyone got this feeling that the new games is TOO much fancy grafic and TOO music great music?

Maybe it's just me cause I am, and some of you is brought up in the C64 era

I'M ADDICTED TO COMMODORE64!

I'm currently playing "Ratchet and Clank 2" on the playstation 2. So, I can safely say at the moment I don't miss the C64 at all...

Still, the C64 is so much a part of my life that I kind of take it for granted again

I don't use a console but I know the fealing when theres an oldschool game I'd love to try again; sometimes I'd wish they'd make modern sequels, or remakes, to these old timers; sometimes they even do.

I have my Dreamcast and Gamecube set up right next to my C64. So some days I play a bit of Nintendo, next day it's Dreamcast, next day it's C64... or sometimes all three in the same day...

I can't be bothered with real retro hardware, so I've got a DC (top console for great arcade games) and an Xbox (with loads of emulators). It's a good combination!

Exchange "Dreamcast" with "Lisa" and "Gamecube" with "Sarah" and it would be a dream setup. ;>

I'm totally into Counter Strike Source at the moment - after completing HL2 I thought I would give it a go...

I am totally hooked on it! I think we need to set-up a R64 Clan!!

I'd love to compete with/against R64 locals as well, only in Desert Combat instead.

Sometimes I feel the urge to play M.U.L.E. with two people at the sticks and two at the keyboard of my old doorstopper...

As for CSS:
Are you in need of a lame HPB who always accidentally TKs and lags like hell? Actually I started with Quake I a long time ago but I feel n00b like on first day. And my PC misses the hardware specs by miles.

I don't really feel the urge to play C64 anymore

But I am happy I grew up with C64. Games these days are so damn good that kids don't want to do anything else than play them. When we were kids, we also did other stuff since the C64 was just cool to play with now and then, not something that looks photorealistic and gives you a 3D world full of real laws of physics etc
