Those screens are awesome, I miss those terrible graphics. I used to play Lord of the Rings on the ZX Spectrum:



I still remember how my "play" button was missing so I had to use a rusty old screwdriver to reach inside and press it... man, how old school is that?

My brother has an R-Type arcade game, collected from years gone by. Sits in his dining room... yep, he's a bachelor [img]smile.gif[/img]

I remember Ultima full well, and the Scott Adams text-based games that I used to play on the Commodore PET. Those were the days...

North and South was awesome, I had it also on the Atari and my friend and I could play it for hours. Yes it was set in the civil war.

Also, wasn't Snes the 16 bit version of Nes... (which was the 8 bit)... just wondering.

I remember police quest but never really played king quest.

I remember having a system, the comodore I think, and we had a manual with codes for games, and we had to write the codes ourselves and save it on tape, to play.
