... and couple of Commodore 64 games which unfortunately i don't remember the names, but the ones i do are Rick Dangerous and Flimbos Quest...
Hell yeah, but not so much the Rogue Spear, Raven Shield and Athena sword are the cream of realism shooters.. shame they went the EA way with the the Vegas.. as Nelly Furtado loves to say "why the all good things come to an end... "
Aswell, remember the mines! When your friend thought he would have "taken" them all out with his mortar... then tried to steal the flag, and got blown up by the ones he hasn't seen (best was to place one at the entrance of his base, so when he tried to run back with the flag, he would die a few meters away from his "home"... haha!).
I agree that this was some of the best splitscreen fun i ever had.
And about playing old games... and don't find them as good anymore as you thought they were. I can tell you, i usually would agree... but go and try it, Army Men isn't one of them. I played it maybe 2 years ago the last time, and it was still as fun as it always has been!
About the copy... maybe try ebay? I've still got it here for the PS1.
on the topic of great splitscreen games has anyone ever played fatal racing (which btw has more similarities with stunts than just the kind of racing up to and including that its also know under a different name (whiplash))
one of the best if not the best splitscreen game i ever played
I remember playing it with my cousin for long long hours ( with ultra low settings , so the cars looked like a match box ) . It was great fun and it is really a sad thing that game developers no longer make such splitscreen games for modern PC-s.
i had the 3dfx version that came with my voodoo graphics back in the day
the software renderer was utter pants but the 3d accelerated mode ran perfectly fine
Oh yeah, I had Flashback too in Amiga. It had that main theme music which reminded bit Terminator (2?) movie. (You can google the music files and play them in Winamp if you like, but I'm not going to post here direct links to files which are possibly copyrighted. But you might want to check UnExotica :tilt
I also played Syndicate quite a lot in PC.
EDIT: Just remembered the Alien Breed games in Amiga and PC.
EDIT2: Star Control 2 in PC
