it has been updated to run on current versions of Windows and the graphics have been given a facelift.
They even have a new add on; The Forgotten with new campaigns and new game play tweaks.

this is a Steam Achievement card I got for capturing relics

 

the original C & C ?
I have owned/played almost every game in the franchise. :2thumbsup:






I think I may need help.....

 

Omg awesome, I never knew this! Made my day. Do I need my original discs?
I threw them out 4 weeks ago. It hurt. But I looked at all these old games and just went Nup, it's clutter now.

 

:2thumbsup:

between Skyrim and AoE, Irminsul with be AFK for a while....

 

I haven't played Skyrim for a year or so now.
I got stuck on a mission that always froze my system when I saved or auto saved.
Got old real quick so I turned it off and never played again.

 

seeing "video game" and "nostalgia" in the same sentence reminds me that i'm old. not counting pong, half my life had passed before there was such a thing as a video game.

 

There was once a NES game where you were a little car blowing things up and if you died 5 times without scoring you'd be able to play the secret hidden game of Pong which was retarded in comparison but I always enjoyed it lol.

 

horse archers for the win!

with a dash of priests and "rock launchers"

 

Syphon filter, that was a cool game


Or going way back, I remember when Warlords for Atari came out and everyone thought it was the bees knees, even though it was just breakout with 4 players and you had to spend an extra hundred bucks for two more controllers and this was the only 4 player game

 

I was about 3 or 4 when I used to play this.. my bro had to load it for me cos the computer was a dick and ignored me when I asked it to "please load cosmo". Lol @ DOS.


And hmm.. AoE II HD doesn't look all that HD Slight bumps to the water and that's all that sticks out to me. Amazing game though, that owns so much of my life.

 

The one we played most here went by the name Red alert, I think it was one of the earlier ones (it had a lot of pixels ).

 

one of the amazing crazy things people bought because it seemed sexily futuristic at the time. like mechanical digital clocks, that just had a motor turning plastic wheels that had numbers on them.

i had this huge book of discrete component circuits from the ieee, that each did all sorts of neat fun things. some actually using digital logic, though amounting to no more then a few gates, and most of them analog or a hybred of both. all sorts of sensors and drivers and sequencers for automation, that sort of thing. never got around to white boarding more then a couple of them. and maybe etching a circuit board for another that i never got around to populating.

i did build some paia analog synthasizer component kits though.

 

I still have (someone from here actually sent me her anyways... I didn't still have mine) an original Nintendo...and now and then get it out and the games and play things like all three marios, tetris, Zelda, mega man and various others.

 

This thread brings back fond memories of blowing on your Nintendo cartridges just to get them to play.

 

Sega genesis Home Alone.

 

i'm rather fond of tetris actually. there's a place where i play it free on line, and when i had a phone, it was one of the aps that came with it free, which was great for passing the time while waiting for my bus.

 

my cousins had an odyssey

fuckers would never let me play


i still dont talk to either of them..they were always assholes like that
