I don't now what came over me

There I was mucking around with this Amstrad Emulator (CaPriCe32 in 6128 mode) because I used to own one, and I find myself playing Guantlet for 5 hours!!! The Deeper Dungeons for 3 hours!!! And I've only just stopped playing! Well... I had to or I may have been taken off to the nut house.



So it's a good time to ask: What are you retro gaming with, what are you playing and are they as addictive as you remember?

...AAARGH! I'm seeing ghosts and fire breathing dragon things every time I close my eyes...AARRGH!...There they are again...GO AWAY!...AAARRG!!

I remember playing "Bloodwitch" many, many moons ago ..... I played it for so long that when ever I tried to sleep, all I could see was giant spiders behind sliding wooden doors !!

Thats half the problem when you play a game which is SOOooo addictive....you can't get the images out of your head when you stop playing. No matter what you try to think about

Bomberman on the SNES! I just love destroying all the AI players (or my mates) in the power zone. It's not even a rom, I still have my old NES,SNES,N64 and Gameboy Original at home, plus my trusty Gamecube. Yes guys, you guessed it, I'm a Nintendoid

Whatever I did I didn't do it!
