Retro-Gaming: Lucas Arts - GoFuckYourself.com

firstly, yes, I am a girl (for some reason I hear that when ever I talk about these games) but I must be going through a trip down memory lane because I just re-ordered all the Monkey Island Games, Loom, Indiana Jones (though, I could only find the first one) and Grim Fandango.

I know that in comparison to what is out to day they are nothing graphics wise but for some reason I enjoyed them more.

Old games are fun

Jakke PNG · 08-08-2004, 07:12 AM

I LOVED Monkey islands. Best damn games I have ever played. Grim Fandango was fun too.

NoCarrier · 08-08-2004, 07:17 AM

Grim Fandango was simply, one of the best games I ever played.

My first LucasArts game was Zak McKracken on the Amiga 500.

i got sparked into this by my friend re-buying a 500 and a 1200 and loading it up with all his old games.

Old games are great, but sometimes not as great as you remember them

My favoraite Lucas Arts games were Rebel Assault and Rebel Assault II, if that counts. My favoraite classic of all is the first Commander Keen, still love playing that one.

Buzz · 08-08-2004, 07:36 AM

Super Mario is still the best one

yeah but I think he likes the challenge. He just messaged me to say that he is close to getting his 1200 connected to the 'net.

I don't do well with newer games that require more than about 6 buttons

There's an Atari 2600 emulator online that comes with over 500 games already plugged in. You could lose a few hours getting retro with that.

Well yeah of course, but that's not the point. We were talking about LucasArts games..

GatorB · 08-08-2004, 08:48 AM

Ok when Monkey Island is OLD I feel REALLY old. I guess if I talk nostalgic about my ColecoVision I'm just plain ancient.

I'm sure that 90% of people here never played an Atari 2600 and that's fucking scary

Slick · 08-08-2004, 10:24 AM

How about Outlaws, that was a classic western First Person Shooter by Lucas Arts.

Doctor Dre · 08-08-2004, 10:38 AM

I was 10 or 11 when that came out. My friend had one. My stupid step dad got us an Odessy 2. Now I know hardly ANYONE here remembers that.
