For a moment, forget PS2, Xbox, GameCube, PlayStation. Forget Game Boy Advance. Forget Dreamcast, Saturn and N64, even. What's the last game you played for a system that's more than 10 years old?

Played "for" a system, Final Fantasy 2. (emulated)
Played "on" a system, I broke out some Legend of Zelda on the NES, just to show my daughter where WindWaker got it's start. She wasn't interested.

That beloved Atari/C64 classic, M.U.L.E. (on my 130 XE, on a cart)!
I haven't played in quite some time but I went straight to Tournament level and took my Bonzoid. Got rocked though (finished 3rd). I went for Crystite too early and didn't produce enough of anything to start, which cost me in the end.
M.U.L.E. will definitely be the next 10 year old game I play as well - I've got a score to settle. :D

I was playing Demolition Man for the Genesis (after the random game thread, I had to relive my youth).
I also popped in my copy of Saturday Night Slamsters for hell of it. And I quite frequintly play Earthworm Jim 2, best game ever.

Enduro (2600) - so damned addictive, and concerningly endless.
Duck Hunt (NES) - it's still the only light gun game I've got!
Street Figher II: SCE (Mega Drive) - HADOKEN!

either Q*bert or Q*bert's Qubes on the 2600. Mainly because I was getting ready to review them. :)
Cheers,
Ben
P.S. EWJ2 is great IMHO!

Just some games I picked for the Genesis and NES (Sonic Spinball, Bio Hazard Battle, Star Solider).
Still got no luck with shooters, so I'm not sure how much I trouble I'll give myself with the last 2. :D

Easy. Old games are ALL I play on the Xbox! I almost never play any of the "new" games that I have.. go figure. LOL Anyway, on the xbox, the last game I played was Pepper II both the arcade version and the Colecovision version as I was doing a compare and contrast. :D Before that it was 5200 Joust on the Dreamcast.
On a real system, I think the last game I played was Turmoil on the 2600. But this was about two months ago or so.

Laser Gates (2600), Loony Balloon (O2), Koffi (5200), Taipan (Apple II).
Also just had another session with Capcom Generation 3 on the PSX, playing Exed Exes and Vulgus. Racked up over 100,000 on EE with no continues - my personal best score EVAH!

I'm really getting frustrated with AvP, I can't find security #4 or #5. I've retraced sublevels 4 and 5 so many times now, I'm about to give up. Can't find a good strategy anywhere on the net either, just basic tips on how to play. Rrrr...I'll keep at it though, its such an awesome game. I don't remember AvP being this hard for me back when I origanally owned it 10 years ago...I'm getting slow with age.
Jag Doom is still the best, and I finally found out about the secret stage 24!! Cool...I need more Doom on Jag, hopefully someone hombrews a Doom Plus or something. :-D

Yeah, Hogans Alley used to be my favorite light gun game too, up until just recently I found a copy of Wild Gunman(NES). Never knew about this game before, and it is truly a fun light gun game. Finally get to test your skills against the fastest guns in the west, in a Duel...now Draw!!! :)

I believe you can still purchase copies of the "Atari Jaguar Official Gamers Guide," co-authored by myself, at gamebooks.com. There's a detailed AvP strategy guide within.

Kaboom, Skiing, and Boxing for the 2600, I guess I was on an Activision kick.

Considering I had a classic gaming tournment at my house on Friday, I got to play lots and lots of classic games. I have 17 "classic" systems hooked up to 3 TVs in my game room. The ones I have most recently played.....Wizard of Wor and Blue Max(XEGS), S.C.A.T. on Nes, Sidearms on TG-16, Space Invaders '91 on Genesis. I have to say that I keep on coming back to Blue Max on the XEGS. For me it is River Raid on crack!!!!!!! :P

I've been splurging on my SMS of late, playing:
Reggie Jackson Baseball
Montezuma's Revenge - god damn that bat. After the first level of it, I can't seem to keep my speed up through rooms to prevent the bat from hell from stealing one of my precious precious lives. Argh.
...and I still suck at Fantasy Zone. Good thing that stuff never changes.

I recently bought Quartet for the Sega Master System..I had to fire it up today to see how the gameplay was..
That's the last" console" game I played..
10 minutes ago I was playing 2020 SuperBaseball on the cab..
Then I was playing a Stargate tabletop before I came to the site..
That was the very last game I played today.

Kickle Cubicle on the NES
Tempest 2000 on the Jaguar
It's been too long since I've had my Atari 2600 or 5200 hooked up so I'm going to do that this upcoming weekend. Megamania, here I come!

2600-Atlantis and Mystery Science Theater 2600
NES-Solomon's Key; I never could get very far in the past, then I popped it in and just played and got about 3 times further than when I was younger.
SNES-Earthworm Jim 2 and Mega Man X
Genesis-Mutant League Football; I can't stop playing this game.
32X-Kolibri...weird.
I've also been playing a lot of Astrosmash on my PSOne (Activision Classics for the Intellilvision)

Gargoyle's Quest for GameBoy, stuck with Freakin' emulation for the moment. That will change. Beat it in one sitting, and I compulsively collect screenshots as I play a new game.
