This evening when I was having a chat with some mates the subject of memories of our youth playing games. All of our first machine was the Atrai 3000 (I think) and we talked about the games we played and how amazing we thought they were some of my favourites were Sensible Soccer - I would say is still one of my favourite football games EVER it was genisus - and amzing how San Marino were able to score from half way line anybody else rememeber that? Also 'The Simpsons' and how hard the first level was do you remember it? you need to spray paint everything that was pink it was really hard but great game all the same.

My all time favourite was Captain Planet. It was the best game ever and I still think that the ozone layer is in 8-bit graphics and pink because of this game it was great and edcating all the same.

So tell me some of your fontest gaming memories

Golden Axe and Paperboy = great as well

There was tennage mutant ninya turtles as well - the first game ever I found a cheat for you needed to press 'alt W' on keyboard and you were invincible if I can rememeber.

Ahhhh the memories - the greatest soundtracks ever as well (nah just joking there)

Sensible Soccer is one of my all time favourites!! I still play it occasionally and for a game to last that long it has to be something special!!

My fondest memories are with the old classics like Paperboy, Alex Kidd, Double Dragon and Golden Axe!! Use to spend hours playing them down the arcade way back, before finally getting them on Master System!!

You had to spray everything red SHEEPY, not Pink, because the aliens needed Purple objects to help complete there machine to take over the world!

:P

My best memories are of when I cheated at Duck Hunt, because if you shoot the exact middle of the screen then you will never lose, I beat my brother over 50X before he worked it out.

I also remember Mario's Cement Factory when I was 2 years old, I loved that thing.
