Man, the tournament mode in that game is fantastic where you build your own robot and fight up the ladder.

Wow. How I remember Mechwarrior, Quake, and DOOM and how the graphics actually were back then is dizzying.

Everytime that I think of how a game looked, my brain remembers it with modern-day graphics, not Mr. 256-bit VGA.

I'm useless at the DOS games. Other than a Vic20 back in the early 80's, I didn't have a PC until 2001. The Genesis quiz I scored 46 out of 50.

I do something similar. I still remember the NHL game on the Intellivision looking amazing.

They should have renamed the .jpg so you cant - right click - save as - the picture to see the file name (which is the game name).

27 on DOS

33 on Genesis. I still have a tonne of Genisis games but not a lot of them are on there.

(nerd brag - I still have working NES, Sega Master System, Sega Genesis and a Sega CD in the closet). Some of those games are still fun. I remember raging at the original Shinobi when I died near the end. No checkpoints. Oh, you just played for three hours? Too bad, back to the very beginning with you.
