Man wtf is it with these young kids who can't game...

[Art Barr]

My pops was gaming all my life. I used to get every system day 1 only because he wanted that shyt himself. When he took a job in NJ for a year or two he got a N64 for himself and a N64 for me and my sister so we could talk over the phone about Mario 64 levels.

This dude used to beat Super a Metroid once a month or so for me just so I could see him escape the planet, cause he always goofed around and I'd scream, "Run, daddy! It's gonna explode! Stop messing around and run daddy!"

To this day he still plays a little, but not anything too recent. Just the Mario games on the Wii. But we used to have MK and SF2 tournaments with me and my friends against him when hed come home from work sometimes. Thinkin back, I had it made. Games were like magic back then breh.

I really wish my pops would have picked up on coleco vision.

I believe my pops best friend beat him into submission on the galaxy, Atari 5200, and intellivision.
to the point, he never really played any games after that.
it is weird because he was a system programmer and analyst.
I think kojo beat him so bad, he just said fukk video games sometime around football on the 5200.

football on the 5200, was crack.
it was limited on the graphics.
yet, you had to program all the plays and defenses.
it was pretty much where and how I learned what was going on, on the real football field.
plus, I learned to beat him in that and intellivision baseball.
I still remember the first time beating him in that, and football, and real basket ball for the first time, to this day.

My kids are good. My 8 year old daughter can beat the final level on Rayman, and my 4 year old son can play Lego marvel pretty good.

I was just goofing around. I never played wiffle ball. I'm Dominican aka I played organized baseball since I was able to hold a Louisville slugger up

Imagine kids these days playing against SNK bosses and having to replay entire stages when they lose.

I figured that before you posted it.
plus, I knee you played baseball from your background and where you are from.
I know all about and I like your brand of humor.
I always totally got what you and how you post.

The arcade scene was crazy because the arcades had games first and they had better graphics than what would be on consoles. It's sad that the arcade is a wasteland now.

These kids will never understand the frustration and struggle and frustration of escorting Natalya in 007 mode in Goldeneye. You spend 45 minutes getting her halfway through the level with one eighth of a bar left, you get shot trying to get her unstuck and have to start all the way over.

You spend another 45 minutes getting to the same spot, but you managed to save at least 3 bars of health so you thinking you got this one in the bag . You know exactly where the last two guys are going to pop out from before you finish the mission, you get hit twice and have one bar left because you got cocky. You kill the one guy and pause the game to get your mind back in focus for this last guy. He comes out and he immediately shoots you before he even turns in your direction like WTF . You lose focus for a bit and remember you still have that one rocket left and put homeboy in the sights Right when you think you about to finish the mission and unlock that invincibility code, pull the trigger


















Natalya walks in front of you, and its back to the beginning

this is one of the nerdiest threads ive ever read here..

did u geeks complaining that the kids arent as hardcore as u ever go outside or participate in sports

Man when I was young you couldn't stop me from going outside, but you couldn't stop me from playing video games either.

A nikka really put in an equal amount of hours in games and out with the homies fukkin shyt up. I'm only 22 so back then, shyt was all cool. The homies would swing thru for Quake tournaments, Smash Bros Melee, NBA Jam and Perfect Dark marathons

 

[Knights89]

funny ass post in here no lie lol

some of yall may have got before yall time tho. my generations has been said for every generation. Hell video games themselves were seen as a problem for some folks of previous generations let alone the quality of the gamers lol
