I've been playing games for a long time. Some of the games that fueled my passion are really old now, but they've been great titles in their time. I stil have a C64 hanging around somewhere and an Amiga <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

There's been some classics over the years, and I've put my fair share of coins in the arcade machines too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Here's a few that robbed me of my childhood - early 20's:

Elite
Rastan
Hyper Sports
Ghosts & Goblins
Space Invaders
Airbourne Ranger
Green Beret (Might have spelled it wrong)
Pole Position
Raid over Moscow
Gods
Risky Woods

It was all worth it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

I was looking through my mags and found an issue of ZZAP! 64 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> I can't bring myself to throw all my old computer junk out. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

So at this point, I'll also mention paradroid.
