You turned the knob to go left and right and pressed the red button to hit. I still remember how loudly the button clicked.

My friends had a NES. I was jealous as fuck. I got a SNES when it came out and immediately the paradigm of me living in their living room playing NES games changed to them coming to my house.

it's only shitty recent moderation that has turned /v/ into "DISCUSS VIDEO GAMES OR GET BANNED" on a website where there were no rules for a fucking decade.

I found the first game CD I ever owned last week in my mom's attic.
It was a copy of Need for Speed III my cousin burned for me after playing it at her place.
I spent so many hours playing this in splitscreen with my sister... back when I was lucky to get an hour at the family computer after being a good boy and doing chores.
My dad gave me a CD with music I used to listen to back in those days and it's giving me nostalgia something fierce. Almost feel bad for planning to wipe Win98 from the old PC from back then that's been sitting in the attic and putting Linux on it to use as a server...

Still undecided if I should replay Tomb Raider 1 through 3 next (first games I legitimately owned) or Rogue Squadron and X-Wing Alliance next.

uh, no, in the otakon 2005 panel moot describes all 4chan boards as how i just described /v/: users who enjoy the topic of the board gather to discuss whatever they want on said boards, and while the central topic of a board is something to be mindful of, it in no way means that's the sole thing you can discuss.

This doesn't work with Zelda, but here's how to start a thread for a game: you pretend like you're a fucking moron who doesn't know how to play the game. Bitch about the simple problems that only a retard couldn't solve in the OP and when the other people who like the game come to defend it, start talking about the game instead.

It works great for a lot of games.

I remember being so confused when they "modernized" steam. And I remember being so mad when they changed the community profiles. still don't like the new ones even though I've just kinda gotten used to them.

That was around the time period that I probably tried using it. I started my job with KBR around August 2009, and met my friend who came to work there probably late 2010. So it might have been around 2011 when I tried to get on steam to play TF2 with him.

It looked horrible, the UI was at best "intuitive", it constantly needed to update which at the time an update was a significant download on a dialup modem, and it would lock you out of playing games until you did. It crashed, it had memory leaks which would force you to restart steam or your pc, it wouldn't let you play your games without running steam..

It was a nightmare. It isn't perfect now but it's come a long long way.

I get where you are coming from, but the earlier episodes of one piece visually look "dated", they're fine in quality but you can tell they came from that era. I have a harder time with TTGL since it looks the same as the stuff trigger puts out today despite an almost 10 year difference.
