At that point, the only shooters I got to play were Starfox Assault, Metal Arms (genius game), and Battalion Wars. I had pretty awful taste, but Metal Arms still remains a favorite to this day, as the least-sucky title on that list.Ramin 123 said:Remember the magic that was Metroid Prime, I mean my God how brilliant was that game...and Eternal Darkness one of the underrated gems of the Gamecube?
Yeah, being born in the early 80s, I had plenty of time, before it was commercially viable, so I played with other things - We went through a stack of home computers, before the internet really grabbed us, since we were pretty slow to it.Vault101 said:So do you remember a time in your life when you didnt have access to the internet? has the internet changed your life at all?
I was born a year after you, but most of my childhood years I've spent playing outside, watching Cartoon Network and playing console games. Fortunately I didn't own a PC back then, but I never was bored although I had less things to occupy me than I do today.Vault101 said:So do you remember a time in your life when you didnt have access to the internet? has the internet changed your life at all?
in my case because of my age (born in 1991) I do vaugley remeber a time without it however really its been a big part of my life, ive pretty much grown up with it ,I mean I didnt really use it much when I was younger I watched alot of TV had my N64 and books I supose
Well I was born in 81, a full 10 years before you, so yeah, I remember back before there even was an Internet (as such) and in fact I didn't get personal access to the Internet until I was about 18. Let me tell you, the main thing I remember about the days before the Internet was a damn sight more boredom.. Sure I read more, watched more tv, and once I got a PC I played games; but the Internet is sort of like the cement that fills in all the gaps.Vault101 said:So do you remember a time in your life when you didnt have access to the internet? has the internet changed your life at all?

but now as an adult its one of the nessecities alongside Energy drinks and air, Plus I dont even watch TV, in fact it baffles me how TV can compete with the internet (considering even the crappy state of foxtel/pay TV in Australia, in fact why would you bother? free tv is getting better I supose)
anyway Im quite facinated by this internet/technology thing, how its become a huge thing in such little time
So how was life before photocopiers Root? Or should I be asking you how you and your father caught a Mastodon for dinner?The_root_of_all_evil said:I got this in the 80's and thought it was wonderful.
Internet is still a young thing. Ask your folks about the time before photocopiers. Or only three channels.
