#RetroGaming
A dose of mid-90s anime cuteness for your Fediverse feeds - and the third ever PlayStation game to be released alongside the Japanese launch of the console on December 3rd 1994.
Crime Crackers is a pretty nifty little sci-fi dungeon crawler FPS with lite-RPG elements. Think Slayers in Space or Lost Universe, which actually was Slayers in Space. Catgirls with a cute peeking fang are also included in abundance!
Sadly, there's still no fan translation, but you could largely muddle through it as the gameplay is rather simple and maze-based. I used Retroarch's screen translation tools for our playthrough of it and it worked pretty well.
One for fans of early PS1 games from Japan like myself!

When I was at the CNE last month I played some pinball, here’s the Dolly Parton machine #retrogaming


👾 Here's a couple of great retro titles for the PlayStation 1. Driver 2 and Sim City 2000.
The Driver series was my first true open-world driving simulator games & it blew my mind spending entire summer vacations playing them.
Sim City 2000 was another game I would play for hours at a time. I drove my parents crazy (they found it boring), but I played it for years and it never got old. Will Wright (creator of Sim City/Sims) & team are great folks, I cannot wait to see what the next fancy new thing is they are working on now! 😉😉😉

22 years ago #OTD Silent Hill 2 was released. Still one of the most complex, dark, and gripping titles of the survival horror genre. Touching upon themes of trauma, grief, guilt and punishment, and blending them with metaphor and the horror element in a way not many games had done before. Quite possibly the highlight of the entire Silent Hill franchise.

Oggi compie 26 anni il gioco online per eccellenza ULTIMA ONLINE. ❤️
Quello che in realtà io (che non sono per niente un video giocatore) non considero neanche un gioco, ma una vera e propria vita parallela online. Ci ho vissuto per anni dentro a cavallo del nuovo millennio (ricordo una bolletta telefonica epica di 1.200.000 lire nel 1998 o 1999) e porto ancora dei ricordi indelebili come se li avessi vissuti in prima persona.
Ho ancora una virtual machine con Windows XP e tutto l'occorrente per accedervi (Razor, EasyUo, UoAutomap, client vari) che ogni tanto accendo per fare un giro. Ho giocato pochissimo sui server ufficiali, molto sugli emulatori. Ricordo ancora la nascita di Sampei su Moon, poi diventato Sampei di Yew guildmaster dei KEA ed il suo famoso shop "Archi & Balestre" su Universo, poi UoDreams... Poi un sacco di server internazionali... Tutt'ora se ascolto quelle musiche mi scende una lacrimuccia!
C'è qualcuno qui nel fediverso che frequentava le vaste lande di sosaria?

Went to the Oxford #retrogaming market yesterday (would have been rude not to - it was next door to the Rebellion office!) and I couldn't resist getting this big box #Amiga copy of Lotus 3. I've played this game consistently for 30 years & never actually owned a legit copy.

There's a rather special gaming anniversary today, the 30th birthday of a game that sold a million CD-ROMs just to play it - MYST!
Released on 24th September 1993. An adventure unlike any other and a poster child for the multimedia CD gaming revolution.
7th Guest might have lit the fire, but MYST poured a skipful of linking book pages onto it to stoke it into a blazing inferno.
I have a lot of fond memories of the MYST series and it was actually the PlayStation version that I played first, same with Riven.
Happy birthday, Myst!
Any Myst-y eyed memories to share, Fedinauts?

J'ai acheté #Diablo en brocante, ado, avec seulement une vague idée de ce que c'était. Grosse claque, au point de me convaincre avec un voisin de mes amis de monter un site internet et même une guilde dans laquelle on accueillait tous les gens qui n'avaient pas de place ailleurs, autrement dit des sacrés tocards eux aussi. Je me suis beaucoup trop investi dans Diablo 1 alors que je me demande aujourd'hui si le 2 n'était pas déjà en approche. #bigbox #jeuxvideo #retrogaming

Pitch vu 100 fois ailleurs (coloniser un nouveau continent), et pourtant j'ai une tendresse pour Conquest of the New World. Pas spécialement pour sa dimension "gestion", et je me souviens même pas des combats. Par contre j'adorais juste explorer, gravir des sommets, remonter des rivières et baptiser toutes ces jolies découvertes. #bigbox achetée une bouchée de pain bien plus tard (j'avais dû l'avoir dans un magazine à l'époque). #retrogaming #jeuxvideo


So I got my Playdate from @panic yesterday. Even after just a brief bit of time with it I can say any #RetroGaming fan esp those who liked Gameboys back in the day really needs to head over to https://play.date and pick one up.
Bravo 🙌 Panic folks lots of ❤️ love clearly went into this.

#DailyRetroGame 199: Formula 1 Simulator (1985)
Suitably for entry 199, this one was part of Mastertronic’s 199 range, available for £1.99 on tape in the UK. On the Z80 machines, this tiny outlay got you a quite good sim with some dodgy bits – touch the side of the track and you die. On C64, it was a duff Pole Position knock-off with the saving grace of a Rob Hubbard tune. Vroomin’ strange.

"Lagoon". What an SNES game would sound like if you hired John Carpenter to score half the game.
#DailyRetroGame 198: Deus Ex Machina (1984)
This one was weird. It featured a machine that had taken human form, and you had to work through its seven stages of life. The audio came by way of a tape you played in sync with the game, which featured the likes of Ian Dury and Jon ‘The Doctor’ Pertwee. A kind of multimedia experience at least a decade ahead of its time, DEM was like nothing else out there. And nothing since.

Things That Can Play #Doom: A Sansa Clip Plus music player running the #Rockbox custom firmware.
Enjoy that two-color by region monochrome 128x64 OLED and controls that from experience when I had one are... something. :P
...at least the framerate's pretty good?
(Rockbox did rule back in the day to spruce up MP3 players, though.)
Gamin j'avais un copain chez qui il y avait un Macintosh, le mec avait #Myst dessus qui avait l'air un million de fois mieux que tout ce à quoi j'avais joué dans ma vie. Finalement j'ai tenté d'y jouer un peu à chaque fois qu'ils le ressortaient sur PC et à chaque fois j'ai trouvé ça totalement abscons. Difficile cependant de collectionner les #bigbox sans se retrouver rapidement propriétaire d'une intégrale Myst vu que tout le monde l'avait et, donc, le revend. #retrogaming #jeuxvideo


PROTIP for every home-brewer, hacker, archaeologist, etc:
PUT YOUR STUFF UP ON GITHUB. MAKE IT PUBLIC FROM DAY ZERO. DO IT, AND PUBLICLY ANNOUNCE YOU'VE DONE IT.
You may run out of time.
You may get bored.
You may get hit by a fucking bus.
And what you have done, will be lost.
Don't leave things to be lost. Post them; PAY IT FORWARD. #retrocomputing #retrogaming
Newest addition to the collection is Omega Race for the #Commodore #MaxMachine.
Like all Max cartridges, it can also be played on a #C64.
It's missing the cardboard inlay, but the box is in great shape.😍

#DailyRetroGame 197: Gribbly’s Day Out (1985)
Before Paradroid, Andrew Braybrook created this oddball. You played as the titular Gribbly, a one-footed bouncing critter tasked with locating Gribblets and taking them to a cave. Simple, but for the rapidly evolving baddies, electrified walls, and terrifying mutant Seon. It frustrated at first with its weird bouncing controls and inertia, but was a classic if you stuck with it.
