>>12766510>absolutely gorgeous day perfect temperature slight wind so no bugs >REALLY want to game tho but feel guilty being inside >end up hauling my tv and Genesis out to the back deckPure Bliss
When everyone was upgrading to N64 I got a handmedown NES set it up with a commodore64 monitor in my room and played the shit out of dragon warrior.Going swimming and then 4 player Diddy Kong Racing and Goldeneye with my cousins up in Maine one of those big ass projection TVs in the basement. Pure kino. Also 2 player Diablo on the ps1 was awesome. Later years doing 8 player Halo CE on two Xbox's on two TVs with my friend and his younger retarded brothers and friends.
>>12766510Starcraft LAN party from Friday night to Sunday night
>>12766510Playing multiplayer with my brothers daily. N64 games like Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, and Mario Kart 64. Along with South Park, Bomberman 64, and Smash. Then continuing that in the Xbox and GameCube era, playing tons of Melee and Halo together. We'd play together and joke around the whole time, it was great.
>>12766510Playing The Sims 2 on my PS2 with my sister
>>12766510Playing alone all night.
>>12766510Bully on PC while I chatted with some friends on Skype.
>>12766510Probably playing WW and SSBM in the summer.
>>12766793>tfw you get older and your sister suddenly has no interest in video games and only cares about socializing
>>12766510probably mariokart and smash melee with friends
>wireless plaything controllers Not retro
>>12766924Maybe they’re emulating.
>>12766510Cutting school to take acid and play Virtua Fighter 2, Virtua Cop and College Slam on Saturn with a friend.
>>12766954How the fuck can you concentrate on fighting games while on acid? I get too introspective and anything conflictive like a fight, even on a video game, puts me off
>>12766958I'd agree as an adult there is no way I would want to be indoors or looking at a screen, but as a 13 year old kid acid trips were always a good time for me regardless of what we were doing. That whole day was filled with laughter.
Going to beach resort towns and they always had an arcade in with the concession area in the 80s. The one I went to had a shuttered wall that rolled up so you basically played "outside" on the warm days, and when it rained you had shelter. They had all the premium newer arcade games and sit down cabinets like space harrier. Later on they had 4 player linked cabinet Cadash.
>>12766967Acid at 13? Shiet.
>>12766793>>12766875Same, we used to beat the shit out of each other in MKD
Going to my friends house down the street and playing various N64 shit and also going to flea markets and garage sales to get retro for practically free.
RuneScape 2005-2007
>>12766974I missed the arcade era but I have some memories of playing cabinets on family trips or at bowling alleys before I had a game console of my own.>>12767131Was that when the Kalphite Queen was the strongest enemy? That’s the only period of RuneScape that I have any memory of my friends talking about.

>>12766510So how long until the long haired one is going to fuck and suck?
>>12766510my mom and sister used to ride horses and show them at national shows in the summer that we were thankfully within close driving distance of. they'd bring our camper there and be at the barn all day either showing or taking care of the horses. i basically sat in the camper all day with a small CRT and my N64 playing mario kart/super mario/some other games. i'd also go riding on my bike around the campgrounds, sometimes buying shitty nachos at the arena where all the horses showed if i wanted to watch that (i rarely did). simpler times.
>>12767563nice hope there's porn
>>12767207anon... i...
Atari ST in cool basement. Tons and tons of disks. Some we copied that floppy (can you believe they used to rent out computer games?), many were Pompey Pirates or Automation cracked disks. Might not play any given game for more than 15-20 minutes but it was like having an infinite treasure chest. We had this one game that was so cool, it was just a free little game that came on a magazine cover disk, it was a 2 player top down tiled archery combat game with a level editor, so much fun. Can't remember the exact title, I tried to find it recently but not even the aislop machines can find it.Also Hunter was so amazing. Can you imagine a GTA game in 1991? Spent hours on this one. It even had helicopters.
>>12766510Stop spamming shitty low effort threads with irrelevant manga thumbnails.
>>12767784Nah, I’ll keep doing whatever I want. Thanks for the input tho.

>>12772379sonic adventure 1

>>12766510>summer memories>about gamingGrim.
>>12773946>you MUST be on the beach, at camp or at a barbecue every SECOND of the summer or you WASTED it
>>12766510Summer of '96, my older sister gives one of her friend's kids a place to stay because his home situation is rough at the time. We get introduced to one another because we both love games, but our interests and collections are completely different. I was a platformer and RPG kid, he was a fighting game guy who was also heavily into Super Metroid.But it clicked. I let him play my RPG collection and he went nuts for them, maxed out levels and taught me you get the final upgrades for all the weapons in Secret of Mana from drops in the last dungeon. In exchange, he introduced me to Street Fighter and showed me I had basically been playing Metroid the wrong way for years. Many sleepovers, and a great time.
