Does anyone remember that arcade game that was in arcades in the 90's, it had a plane shooting and bombing battle ships and tanks, planes etc, the battleships had sections you could destroy that shot at you back. Id like to try to find it but cant find any clues on the net.

I guess some of my stuff is retro, I have a PS2 and a wii that I play some gamecube games on. I wish I still had my old pokemon carts for my advance that I took to Iraq, those things are impossible to find now! I do play some old fps and strategy games on my pc, the old call of dutys and such.

Years ago I use to have MAME installed on my puter playing all the old arcade classics. My favorite was Xevious.

A long time ago i used to play a game called "stars!" ive recently tried to find it but only found these links and my pc doesnt support the game.
But my pc also had trouble playing GTA vice city as the graphics were too low.

Are you familiar with DOSBox? I don't want to download the game just to see the readme file, but if you do a little research on DOSBox and how it works, you might be able to play your game. Quick heads up: DOSBox is a DOS emulator that you can run on windows. Might be worth checking out. (:

You know you can download an emulator to your PC. It's easy to download NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, N64, Gameboy Advance games for all those systems. Go to loveroms.com Watch out for adware. You can also download games from more advanced systems, but you'll need the codec or whatever for them to work. Up to N64 the games are easy as hell to download and play. The coolest thing of all is that you can hook up a wired xbox360 controller to your PC's usb ports and use that as your joystick.

I was always fond of fighters and beat 'em ups since games that involve violence and chaos was all I excelled at. Streets of Rage, Ninja Baseball Bat Man, Final Fight, Alien v. Predator, Captain Commando, The Simpsons and Turtles in Time take me back to a gaming age where your friends played next to and not yelling at you over a headset.
