Most Rememberal experience with games

[Lemmy]

Two specific moments i remember from Fallout 1.
1. Killing Gizmo, loved that animation.
2. Entering the Hub, the atmosphere was excellent, couldn't wait to get to the shop and check out the goodies.

Actually entering any big fallout city for the first time was fun, there was off course Shady Sands, with the first persons you meet.
In FO2 there was New Reno, Vault City, Klamath (again, the first other city), NCR and San Fransisco were all good.

Teaming up with a friend to annoy the hell out of our team as dual team-killing demomen in TFC (PC). There's a particularly fun map in which two demomen can continually spam the spawn point with MIRV grenades and mass team-kill (if teamkill is on), or else strip the armor from all teammates and also make it almost impossible for teammates to leave the spawn point (if teamkill is off). If you go in using an alias of a clan that you don't like, then you can usually get the entire clan banned from the server.

That seems to be a flaw of the game.

[loinburger]

We call it clan-killing.

The most momorable experiences have to do with the early days of computer/video games, including:

- Pong
- Space Invader
- Asteroids
- Galaxian/Galaga
- Tempest
- Decathlon (on the TRS-80)
- Archon
- Star Raider

Back then, the "wow" factor was great. Now, new games are mostly just so-so.

I think one of my most memorable experiences was playing "Gunsmoke" on the NES, when I was about 8 or 9. I had got stuck on the third level "Commanche Village" for ages - died numerous times and was absolutely having my derriere whipped. I finally completed the level by killing the end of level boss. I went bezerk, running around cheering that I had finally killed the git.

I returned to the game several years later for nostalgia. I completed it at the first time of asking - it was so unbelievably easy! Oh well.

I have 2 major remembrances, separated by a couple of decades.

1. the first time me or my brother made it to the end of Questron. we'd been playing it for a couple of months, each trying to get ahead of the other. I and a friend were there when my brother made it to the bottom of mator's dungeon and into his hideout. I remember the feeling of horror when we were told that ranged weapons don't work here, and again when we found that the guards hit with a percentage of my brother's massive build of hit points. we were both screaming at him to "go this way' , "no, that way' , "hurry up, you're going to DIE!!"

2. the first time I beat OCC on civ2. i'd been going at it for a while, and kept getting killed off for various reasons. With a LOT of help and advice from the civvers here, notably Rah, i finally managed to hold off the after launch invasion until my ship landed. What a feeling

[Traianvs]

Hehe, i finished Gunsmoke as well a few months ago, it was.. idd so easy!!


i can remember, finishing caesar2, having conquered all that could possibly be conquered, including, hibernia, dacia exterior, etc that the actual romans never conquered!!!

i also remember my first encounter with 'The Thing' in Stonekeep, the most horrible monster i've ever encountered in a game..

then there are the good old duke nukem3d mp games, via modem, with a mate, and more recently, getting 280 kills in Deathmatch Soldier of Fortune in just 20 minutes.. (which is quite insane!!)

of course, the entire Thief game, hiding in dark alleasy and corners, hearing guards pray/ search/ hunt you, was simply great!

One of my favourite things about Caesar II was the guy sayig those place names. For some reason "Africa Proconsularis" sticks in my mind the most.

i remember quite about ogre battle(snes), shadowrun(snes), ff vi(snes), fallout1(pc), daggerfall(pc), and deus ex(pc) as if i lived that experience in some surreal dream. i also have the same feeling regarding beating the the bosses in doom2 + quake1(mmm telefragging), along with some really well remembered multiplayer matches i played for quake1(like winning some 1v1s on dm6 by 1 frag in overtime).

[TheStinger]

does anyone remember a game called rings of darkness for the spectrum or dragon 32
