We would play Bolo on Macintosh LCs when I was in second grade. Good times, we had no idea how to play, we would just shoot each other & build fortresses. I haven't seen much a difference between my second grade self and some of the noobs playing Winbolo now. :roll:

yea, i was more of less the same when i first got bolo, but im talking about games like shufflepuck or escape velocity

Oct 13, 2005 20:59

Nope, can't say I have.

Do you remember "Lode Runner" ?
I had/played it on :
Apple II C
Amstrad CPC
Gameboy
PC (80086 with 600 Ko memory : lol)
PC (The Mad Monks' Revenge version, very good, I still have the setup CD !)

This was one of my favorites games !

Oh! Forgot about my IIc. OKay, I use to play Where in the ____ is Carmon Sandiego for the IIc. I have Europe, World, USA, USA Classfied (1 & 2), and North Dakota. But my North Dakota one doesn't work. I have books for them to. I got the IIc, games, software, printer all from the school.

Hahaha, what a nice museum you have ! I still have a Mac SE30 ! lol

Oct 13, 2005 22:05

Haha, that's cool, that is SE/30 also. :P

Here's IIc parts, it was a IIc, but it's going to be modded so I can fit Mini-itx PC in there, some day.

All my software, mostly for the IIc. All the Carmen San Diego games are in the Europe Box.

Mario and StarFox are both great games for SNES. But my favorite would have to be Donkey Kong Series for SNES. Those are kickass. haha.

True, true. But the whole class had color screens :D
