Why I like to play classic games?

By Becky Anderson


PC games have been around for decades now. I initially began playing PC games on my commodore 64. I had to load the games from a cassette. These games were simple to play. I remember playing Bubble Bobble, Ultima IV, Bruce Lee, Armalyte and a lot more. We used to have a joystick with one or 2 buttons and that is it. No directions were needed and there was not any complex story. Here under I have explored some of the popular games from the 1990?s.

Occasionally it is difficult to find those classic games and play these on the modern computer. It's not the same feeling. The games makers have developed new and better versions of these classic games. While playing these modern games you continue to recognize the old Commodore games in them.

Many of us have also played solitaire, minesweeper, Tetris and ski free at the office when the boss wasn't having a look at us or when there were not any buyers waiting at the customer desk. My favorite used to be Tetris. There were a lot of versions of this game.

There's one classic game that continues to be played on many consoles and computers. It is the Mario Bros. There are numerous versions of it, but it is still popular among the youngsters who are used to play games like Modern Warfare. Everyone has attempted these old games ones in a while.

I've found you can still play these old games on many websites for free and also on the new android phones. You can download many favored games on your telephone and play. The classic games can be played on many web sites and are available as flash games. Some still have the usual look and music.

The classic games have been used as a starting point for the modern games like Mass Effect 3 and Skyrim. Eventually we'll forget these games, but I believe that they merit a place in our history books and should not be forgotten. The arena of entertainment as we know has its base in games we used to play on our Commodore and Atari PCs.
