Bill Lange #1 Posted January 11, 2003 Which game genre do you feel is the most fun on the 8-bit machines? Which game genre are the Atari computers best at handling? And which game genre has been mostly ignored on the 8-bit machines? WRL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+davidcalgary29 #2 Posted January 11, 2003 I don't think that the 8-bits hande any genre poorly...although I think that there's definitely a dearth of good arcade / puzzlers for the machines (e.g. "Chip's Challenge", "Rampart") Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goochman #3 Posted January 11, 2003 Fighting games kinda suck on the 8bit - Dev stopped just as these type games came into the spotlight. Some later releases are pretty good but otherwise the 8bit is missing this genere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaos Protocol #4 Posted January 11, 2003 I got hooked on the text adventures early on, but next to those are the classic 8-bit style arcade clones... the most ignored one has got to be the fighting games, I have Kung Fu and Karateka, but that's about it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
