What, so you'd rather play a game that is the same as the current version but looks like something the kids drew in nursery? No thanks!

To enjoy retro properly you need to have seen and played it in the day, it's all about everything else that was going on at the time. In most cases, you end up wishing you hadn't spoilt the memory.

If we are talking retro though, Manic Miner or Jet Set Willy for the win!

ah, maybe i'm missing the point then.. i dont really remember playing any classic old games until fairly recently (within the past five years, i guess.) The first game i ever played was mario kart 64. I didn't even know video games existed before then. And even playing that back i dont get a nostalgia feel or anything..

Guess i'm missing the full experience, but i do think it would be fun to play with for a while, like that atari halo game.
