Do you remember ???

I know that many of you have written blog post or review of the old games. But this are the first games that I played and they have a special place in my heart.

So we start with Mario the plumber that goes to save the princess. He had a big moustache because it was difficult at the time to draw a mouth at that resolution. I think that everyone of you played that game. If you didn't play the original game with the 8 levels you played one of the many sequel.

Next we have duck hunter. It was easy just shoot the duck . O but that dog that laugh at you when you would fail to shoot the duck was starting p**s you off.

Then we go to the pc games and to the Warcraft ( the first one ) with his resolution of just 640*480 and a keyboard control. Yeah you could play this game with a mouse too just to indicate the location where you want to move the unit. But the keyboard shortcuts where vital.

The floppy disk was an important part of a gamer's life. I'm not sure but i think that wolfenstein 3D was on a disk. 1.44 Mb , and the original Doom .

So it's true that good things sometimes come in small packages.

Anyway this are only a few games. My first games played. We can talk here about the firs age of empires , the first and second diablo and the games on the spectrum .

Manic minner, harrier attack, skool daze, kane, river raid and so on.

I hope that this post will bring back nice memories for you too.

Huh, Doom was on a 1.44 MB floppy disk. I thought a floppy had more space on it? wow...
