Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I had been through four consoles and five jobs before most of the games in the notes had come out.

My top five were virtually chiselled on stone tablets by comparison :)

Off the top of my head:

  • Karate Champ II (arcade)
  • Pac-Land (arcade)
  • Gryzor aka Contra (Amstrad CPC)
  • Sorcery (Amstrad CPC)
  • Xenon (Atari ST)

Oh wait, Elite (BBC, Amstrad, and ST) — probably more so than Xenon.

I was in high school when I bought my first console, so it's pretty much just Landstalker and Phantasy Star IV.

[–] uniquethrowagay@feddit.org 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Age of Empires II and Rollercoaster Tycoon, that's about it.

I was born in 1995, but didn't have a capable PC until my late teens so I was stuck with whatever ran on my win98 potato without internet connection. Great games though, still play them today

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

My cut-off date for "teen years" is the year you were born. 🧓

The DS wasn't the first gaming machine I ever had, but it was the one I had from ages 13-18 and the one where I cut my teeth.

Patapon 2

Wizard101

Minecraft

Skyrim

Half Life

Team Fortress Classic

Mecharrior 4: Vengeance

Ocarina of Time

Diddy Kong Racing

Those are the ones where I'd be a different person now without.

[–] FearMeAndDecay@literature.cafe 1 points 9 months ago

Hmm definitely Minecraft, Skyrim, and Sa2b. As for the other two… probably Town of Salem and Fantasy Life for the 3ds

I still play Minecraft, I played some modded skyrim last year (and got the oblivion remaster) and I literally got a steam deck primarily so I could play sa2b on it whenever I want. I’ve been loving the fantasy life sequel that just came out too. The only thing I don’t really play anymore is town of Salem bc the servers suck even worse now. So few players that you’re always stuck with racist trolls and shit

Basically, teen me had pretty good taste
