After many years I decided to finish UnEpic.

Elden Ring has finally clicked for me and I am birderline addicted. Its the same for every FromSoft game, try it on release, bounce of it and then come back later thoroughly addicted and consume everything about it that I can. Highly recommend it.

Yes, it’s even a very good game with all those bugs. Without those bugs it must be great.

A few weeks ago I finished all the Tomb Raider games on PS4. Never played a Tomb Raider game before. Those modern Tomb Raider games are quite good, but nothing special. Those are “action adventures light”. For those who would like to play an action adventure that’s not too extensive and could be finished within a few evenings.

Btw, I took a photo of my little collection before I pack everything for moving:

Im replaying a lot of old shit, Quake, Doom, the classics.
I’ve also tried Kings Field recently.

In more modern games I’ve become a pretty big fan of ULTRAKILL, Navicula Meatus, NFS:MW [2005], and Unreal Tournament. I also am really enjoying Dark Souls.

(Anything past 2000 is modern for me)

I’m working on a remake of an old Amiga classic together with some friends in Unreal Engine. The game is Behind the Iron Gate, one of the first ego shooters ever. With friendly permission of the original developers.

Good luck, that game is hard AF, haha.

@Mastrcode: That is really cool :slight_smile: I just downloaded a remake of Alien Breed 3D, it’s very nice to see remakes of Amiga games. I have never played Behind the Iron Gate.

I have been playing Metroid Fusion on Gameboy Advance emulator lately. I’m really impressed by the atmosphere and storytelling. My first Metroid game.

I was about to purchase a PS5, but after I’ve been scammed in December 2025 I decided to wait a little longer and to continue playing on PS4 while continuing buying PS5 games for future sessions. I’ve discovered a game that has been removed from the market years ago. It’s similar as Remnant From The Ashes, which is a “Dark Souls with guns”. The game I’m talking about is called “Immortal Unchained”, and it’s worth playing. BUT I needed to download a patch in order to see the endgame, and I don’t want my console to be online. I prefer the oldschool way, which means always offline, insert game, start playing, that’s it. Anyway, have a look at the trailer:

Looks nice, enjoy yourself @TNT !

I just completed Dune 1 for DOS PC, oh man that soundtrack. I have only played the Amiga version earlier so it was a treat to see the game in 256 colours up from 32, PC is the ultimate version.

Ah, Dune, I need to play that game again one day. Didn’t know what to do back in 1992, it just looked interesting enough. But I would play the Amiga version of course (if my disks are still working). Amiga > PC. Always. :wink:

Yeah, Immortal Unchained is nice. But I would recommend to patch it right away. The patch changed the whole game. Different graphics (color settings and some detail changes), different controller settings, very different enemy behavior, all the weapon characteristics were changed and so on. But it’s fun, regardless which version you’re playing. I probably needed that after 6 months of abstinence in terms of gaming.

Btw, I’m about to sell retro video games, primarily for SNES, but there are also games for SEGA MegaDrive, Amiga and Atari 2600. I want to reduce my collection and only keep my favorites that I’ve played in my childhood and youth. I’m also selling games for PS2, XBox 360, PS4 and other systems. If someone’s interested, just let me know. The games are mostly originally boxed of course.

Do you have Moonstone original for Amiga?

If you play Dune on Amiga, play on real hardware. I got many crashes while playing on WinUAE, sometimes while saving game, very frustrating, that’s why I played DOS instead. But I’m glad I did since it was different. Amiga has very good music too, but fewer songs.

I always play on original hardware, and I own every retro system multiple times in case something doesn’t work anymore. I also own a lot of accesories, QuikShot II Turbo joysticks (best joystick ever made) and so on. And yes, I’ve also got Moonstone boxed for Amiga, check my collection above. On the photo you can find it in the middle, fourth shelf from the bottom, on the left between Ambermoon and Sword of Honour. It’s a very good game, not only because it was forbidden in Germany. :slightly_smiling_face:

Wow, it looks beautiful. I play Moonstone every month or so, very highly rated for me. I might ask you for price in the future when I get my life together, right now my Amiga 1200 isn’t even working, some piece on the motherboard needs to be replaced.

I just found my original Last Ninja C64 cassettes, so happy:

I love The Last Ninja, part 2 is one of my alltime favorites for C64, especially the OST by Matt Gray is the best there is. But I prefer disks over tapes. In fact 99,99% of my C64 games are on disks.

The current price for Moonstone for Amiga in normal/good condition is 500 $, but it can go up to 1100 $. It may rise again, just like in the past 20 years. I’m surprised about a lot of prices, didn’t know that I’m that rich. I also own a lot games that are worth between 2000 and 4000 $, but most of my games are currently worth between 150 and 300 $ each. Modern games are very cheap in comparison. But I’m 100% sure that prices will crash as soon as our generation is dead. So if you want to make some money from retro games, you gotta sell in near future.

You can check prices here.

Let me know if you want to have a shirt like this. :wink:

Holy shit, 1000+ USD,- that’s almost as much as an Amiga 1200 with Blizzard 68060 board. Too much for me, at least at the moment. 4000,- USD for a game, that’s hardcore, haha.

I have The Last Ninja 2 cassettes somewhere too, they will show up someday. Disks are better because they are easier to preserve, IMO. But actually I prefer the tape versions when playing because they force you to listen to the loading songs. When playing on emulator I play tape versions of those games.

EDIT: Nice T, I want!!! Maybe better with eyes in the back and tekst in front…

No problemo, PM me and tell me your size and adress and we can make it happen. But the design is what it is, and it’s the original cover design. But I have to disagree, the disk versions also “force” you to listen to the loading themes. It took minutes to load the loading screen, and more minutes to actually load a level. You could easily make coffee and drink it up quietly while having a chat with a friend. :wink:

Back in the days I recorded all the Last Ninja music on tape and listened to it through my walkman while delivering newspapers. Good old days.

Those soundtracks had such an impact on me, they were the first gametunes I recorded to another format. Life changing.

But with disk version back in the day, I remember I had to press button to skip music and start loading the next level. Maybe they changed it in a later version so that the music played while loading.

Great, we take the order on PM then :slight_smile:

Yes, your memories are correct. There was no music while loading anything. You started loading the game, after a few minutes the loading screen of the level was loaded, by pressing the button the loading screen and music disappeared and after another few minutes the level was loaded. I only remember one game that has playing music WHILE loading the level, and that’s Turrican on Amiga. And the music was continuing playing while loading the levels in The Last Ninja 2 on tape? Strange. How long did it take to load a level on tape? Half an hour? :sweat_smile:

So I remembered correct, good :slight_smile:

Nah, it took maybe 5-6 minutes to load a level, and maybe 7-10 for the first level. Tape was not bad, the worst thing was to die completely and having to rewind the tape and shit to get back xD

Hmm, since you mention it, it’s strange that The Last Ninja games had loading music, I don’t know how that worked and why they couldn’t do the same for diskettes. But many tape games had loading music, some with loading screen being drawn in real time, so maybe loading files from tapes require less cpu.

Disk was speedy AF, I was blown away after having tape for many years. But soon after I got disk drive, it was time for Amiga 500, so I didn’t use C64 much with diskettes.
