The ONLY first-person ANYTHING game I' ve ever liked was Namco' s Breakdown. The rest of the genre I' ve never been crazy about. Wish they were milking platformers and shoot ' em ups as much as they' re milking first-person shooters.

I feel sorry for those that didn' t get chance to experience what we now call " retro" games first time around.

I' m only 23 but i had a Master System and a NES when they were both on the market, and i' ve not only had every major games console since (i' ve only missed the Jaguar and 3DO), but i still have most of them.

I also had a Commodore 64 but that has long since stopped working and been throw in the bin...

But teenagers, say 15, 16 even 17 years old, have grown up with Sony and their tastes seem very different, with most being content with yearly sequels and games like Grand Theft Auto and Need For Speed. It' s horrible!

I could say that Nintendo will correct some of this and maybe save their souls, but i just can' t see them playing games like Totally Rad, Demon' s Crest, Super Metroid, or even Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon on N64. If they buy Revolution in the first place it will no doubt be for something like Tmesplittes 4...

my main reason to play old school games is for nostalgia, to feel that very moment when i was 6 - 7 years old and play with my spectrum zx or the nes with hundred of games stored in, contra, mario , and so much more...

almost 15 years later, i try to play again those game on emulation since i lost these systems, and i play those game only to reminisce myself the good time i had, but i quickly find the game very boring and repetitive and i couldn' t believe myself how i was sucked in these games, but back then i did i could not leave the couch playing , hooked...

this industry almost grew with me , and i m so happy to see all the innovation and technology, i knew how game were and evolved, i was amazed to see 16 bits system and then comes 32 bits and then 64 and then dreamcast .... my god

but i think that games are more interesting than before , it' s just that we were kids and we didn' t have high standards , we didn' t require a lot from developers, we were just happy to play any games (almost) and the more we grow up the more we rise the standard until today...

well today i play only AAA titles and some AA titles .... forget about the others because i have a lot of expectations but sadly there are a lot of crap gales out there , but i guess lesss than the 32 bit era and certainly less than the 16 and 8 bit era.

Iv played games since i was 6 (im 25 now) but never console games, i didnt own a NES, my first console was Playstation 2, my first computer was a Atari i think, and then i got a C64, and finally i got a PC, so my old school titles are stuff like Prince of Persia, Wolfenstein, and Commander Keen!

The only Mario game i completed is Paper Mario for GC
