I used to play a PC game that had you as a cat, jumping around someone and something called Captain Keen, what did you guys play as kids?

I played Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands, Dizzy, Rick Dangerous, Ride to Kain, Gauntlet, Zelda, Alex Kidd, Super Mario, Commando, Arkanoid, Golden Axe, Pong, and loads more that I can't remember.

The old games were great they relied on total gameplay.

I used to play I-ball 2 and Finders Keepers and Knight Lore on the ZX Spectrum.
Then I used to play Robin Hood, Gremlins 2 and Radar Mission followed by Super Mario Land on the Original Gameboy.

I have over 170 games in total not including the disk I've got with over 500 titles on it!

I used to play games on the PC like Bashlite and Wolfenstein. These may not sound that old but I am only 13.

Commodore 64s were great, I played trapdoor, thundercats, about all I can remember, but my Amiga 500 played a big part of my life, with lemmings and cannon fodder, not really all that old but it is one of my chilkd hood games.

(Great music in Outrun.)

I used to play the Trapdoor game a lot, on my Commodore 64. I also played non-stop Ghostbusters. That was a great game.

By the way, the game with the cat was called Alley Cat, I have it on my computer. (The wonders of Abandonware...)

When I was a kid we had an Amstrad CPC 464, and over a hundred games for it. The games I remember playing a lot were the likes of Roland on the Ropes, Roland in the Caves, Harrier Attack, The Galactic Plague, Animal Vegetable Mineral, Chase HQ, etc.... An old game that I would love to see return would be the classic Out Run, this should be re-made for the Dreamcast. Think how amazing it would be.
