Made sure to throw in puzzle/"old people" games for you guys. :P
 
Also, sorry! I keep forgetting to do this. One of these days I'll get to it.

In the meantime give me more suggestions!

"Old people games"? I think I'm qualified to ask for those, considering I'm 60. (I can remember when I thought 30 or 40 was old. HA!)

Berzerk? (or something close to it, like "K-razy Shoot-Out", "Borg", or "Shamus"?)

Maybe a text adventure game like "Zork", or the original "Adventure" game?

Something with neat 3-D graphics, like "Battlezone" or the old "Star Raiders" for the Atari home computer?

Actually, it's OK- I hardly ever play games anymore. I got it out of my system back in the 1980s. But I've played a few games with my nephews on their system.

EDITED TO ADD: Okay- gonna see how rusty I've gooten at PacMan and Space Invaders. BRB...

What's usually on there are clones or look-alikes of popular games, but with similar mechanics. I'll do some research and see if I can find something close to your kind of games.

I doubt there'll be any text adventures, unfortunately.
 
Well, I just tried my hand at PacMan, Snake, Helicopter, Giana (which was very similar to Mario Bros) and Karate Monkey. So far, I suck at all of them.

FortyTwo, I can't use a joystick with the public library computers I now use, so it's okay- you don't have to go through a lot of work. I'll see if I can get used to using the console keys first before making any game requests. But thanks for the offer!

Oh, that's fine. We need more games anyway. :P I'll still see what I can do. I've got months to catch up on.
 
I think you're some mutant gamer, and we should probably dissect you to figure out how you do it.

I almost got kicked out of the Army for being a mutant gamer.
I was in the process of being discharged out of the Army before my first sergeant came up to me and gave me the option of going to war instead. I was being discharged because I had a difficult time waking up in the morning for PT (Physical Training) formation. I had a drinking problem which led to my not-being-able-to-wake-up-in-the-morning problem. I also had a video game problem where I'd stay up way too late playing them. Sometimes I'd even pull all-nighters. EverQuest was my drug of choice. The Army Psychiatrist told me that I had an addictive personality, and to stay the **** away from cocaine.
 
Yeah, I've always figured I had an addictive personality too, which is why I've never done any illegal drugs and am super careful with alcohol and prescription stuff.
 
The Karate Monkey game keeps freezing on me so I can't save my score :( I see that others have managed tho, so presumably it's something wrong with my flash player.
 
I've uploaded a game we used to have on VB called "History of Invasion". However, it won't show in the "all" listing... I'm confused. (It's visible in the Action section though.) And Envy somehow noticed it had been installed anyway and already has a ridiculous score :(

Is there a 'games per page' limit or something, and no way to turn pages? That's very odd. :shrug: At least it's showing up under its category.

It shows in the "new" section too.
