Other Tidbits/Comments |
What's the distinction of a classic
game to me anyway? I'll play anything from Asteroids to Unreal Tournament
as long as it's fun. I play classic games cuz they're fun and only collect
games that are fun to play. I guess I've played "classic" games after the
Crash on my Atari computers, the best ones being the remakes on the ST's
with revamped graphics, sounds and gameplay {think Jeff Minter and Llamatron}.
I "offically" got into classic game collecting when I wanted to do a remake
of Yars' Revenge for the ST. Sadly, I never did get to get it off the
ground...but hey, I get to play the original and all the others
again! :) |
