I just bought a handheld emulator (Anbernic RG35XX) and I’m now overwhelmed with options.
I’m also expecting to be destroyed by the games some of you were playing as children, but whatever. Anything PS1 and older is appreciated.
- Shadow Man
- Turok 1 + 2
- Quake 2 (that OST kicks ass)
- Duke Nukem 3D
- Descent 3
- Commander Keen 4-6
- PowerSlide
- Ubisoft POD (Planet of Death)
- Terminal Velocity
- Tron 2.0
The biggest part of my childhood was Shadow Man. It was the first game I ever played that built a big world to explore with excellent narration and a good sense of progress. It felt rewarding to finally play all the way through to the end after many months. Some of the levels and music gave me nightmares as a child, but it was worth it.
I enjoyed a lot of story-driven games since then, but this one will always have a special place in my heart. It’s so cool that NightDive remastered it recently.
I recently put another dozen hours into SimCity 4.
I played Paper Mario for the N64 and had a blast, super good game that I couldn’t put down. Nice to know there are N64 games I’ve never played that still hold up
Castlevania symphony of the night is a gem
Grim Dawn, SMW, asteroids, metal slug, ms. pacman, centipede. Oh and defender and joust
