SentinelDranoel Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Back in my day, you could literally punch the person you were playing against in a video game. ^ missed those days, you have no idea Back in my day, you knew everyone you played games with for years in other aspects of your life.

Kthx Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Back in my day we had to run games off 5 1/4" floppies and actually swap them out during gameplay. And what an upgrade that was from cassette tapes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elhanan Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 I had to use paper, a pencil, some dice and an imagination. Next? Ditto; in my day we only had 6 sided die gathered from various other games lying about the house; no polyhedral plastic pips for us. And we liked it!

Valerii Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Back in my day, we didn't have cell phones, cable, video games, home computers, hell even a calculator was rare to see in a persons home until about the mid 70's. Yep, we didn't have twitter, text messaging, blogs or forums, so when we had pointless information, we usually just kept it to ourselves. Good times.

amantheil Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 back in my day there were only 2 classes, Plumber, or Hedgehog. Both had one special ability; jump both had the same mission: get from the far left of the map to the far right x OOooh, weren't you fancy. Back in my day, we had two classes: left vertical bar and right vertical bar. You could go up, or down. None of that fancy 'side to side' stuff. You completed your mission when you knocked the little ball past the vertical bar on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACLucius Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Back in my day, we used to hold down and B, because that increased Pokeball catch rates. I'm 26. Holding A and B until the ball opened, and then hitting the buttons like crazy did better for me. Back in my day, bubbles were something you shot at fiends so you could kill them. For those of you who do not understand the reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thominoh Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Back in my day.. You actually had to (click) on the door to open it while a mob is chasing you.... SMACKS you, and you are stunned and turning is a daze.. Waiting to get back to running thru that door you just opened (click) again, and pray to hell that some big Ogre isn't blocking the doorway..

Then, they had the first mmo I ever played, Gemstone. We had tro type everything out, Look w, go west, att 1st rat, att 2nd rat, skin 1st rat, skin 2nd rat, look n, go north. God forbid you werent a great typest. Those games, fluff was eveything. People paid RL money for specific decriptions of special items. Ist graphical multiplayer game was NWN. Then City of heroes. I love this game:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquidacid Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) back in my day we had to walk 20 miles in the snow with no shoes uphill to play tennis for two on an analog oscilloscope and probably end up catching polio from our friends!
