SkyDX Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Whoa 15 years... It gave me some good time, especially CTR and when I found out about Final Fantasy and Alundra and Legend of the Dragoon and Tron Bonne, Megaman X and bleh I could go on for years :laugh: Yeah that was a time where I still got epic feelings from purchasing or rather getting a game console from my parents. The Super Nintendo, the N64 and the PSX^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antsy Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I hate the way redundant Ones get added retroactively to the names of things. Nothing sounds as awesome when you switch it on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeoo_andy_ni Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I didn't get one until 1998 when I bought it from a mate in college. Was always a Sega/Nintendo fan then, but the SNES and Megadrive were old hat then. The games were still epic though, can't beat Sonic and Starfox/wing even now. Cost me 90 quid with Die Hard Trilogy and the light gun. Got a memory card and another controller from him as well. Went into Our Price (wow, it has been 15 years) and got Wipeout and Tomb Raider for a tenner each. ?110 for my gaming pleasure through part time work in Index and studying for my GNVQ. Awesome. Think I might get the games out tonight and teach my son (he's like 14 months old, but rofl's at Mario) the ways of Motorhead, Megaman 8 and Wipeout (all 3). What I nice birthday to have.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted September 10, 2010 Veteran Share Posted September 10, 2010 Ah yes, the golden days - Playstation 1 and 2. The PS2 for me was nowhere near as enjoyable as the PS1. And no, it's not because I was an Xbox fanboy, I actually bought the PS2 a few months after release (quite a while before I bought my GCN/Xbox), excited as hell to see all my favourites in next gen graphics. Sadly it was a terrible launch 2nd only to the PS3's. GTA3 & MGS2 saved it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xerino Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Back in 95 when the PS first came out I saw it at Rays Video (one of those places where you rent game time on a console and tv in the store) never heard of the PS at the time, and was still very much in love with my SNES, the game they had up on it was Battle Arena Toshinden (I think thats what it was called) and I was blown away at the graphics, I had to have one, shortly thereafter, I found one for sale used at a thrift shop for $100 I was stoked, I bought it, went to blockbuster and rented a couple games for it, took it home, hooked it up, and much to my dismay, every game I put in brought the ever fabled Red "Please inster Playstion Game" screen. I was very upset, and couldnt return it as all sales were final, I did some research online to find out it was a japanese model playstation, and would not read american discs... dammit, then came the mod chip, woohoo, 20 bucks and 30 minutes of soldering later, I was able to play the american games that I had bought for it...
