I loved that game, it was all we did in comp class lol. I hated it when the hitch hiker shanked my ass lol. The best was getting special hidden bonuses in certain cities, and getting special payloads.. so many memories.

I still have and play sim tower to this day...Greatest sim game ever, followed closely by simcity classic and simcity 2000.....

I remember old fish-shaped skateboards with the huge wheels, and the one skid pad at the back.

Fighting over mario and luigi in Super Mario Bros for NES.

Putting the nintendo zapper right up against the screen and cheating at duck hunt....Then trying to shoot the lil' faggot dog when he laughed at my shitness.

Tetris.

Playing De La Soul's 3 feet high and rising over and over and over again.

Pitfall. Test Drive. Racing Destruction Set. Trying to play Ports Of Call, despite it's boring nature.

The old lego themes they would bring out....The space series ones, pirates and colonial armies...

Starter caps and jackets. Checking other kid's starter caps to see if they had the official 8 stitches on the peak.

Checkered shorts.

Teddy Ruxpin.

Catch The Pigeon.

The days of PROPER hi-tops...Not todays versions of hi-tops which are just mid-tops masquerading.

My older sisters' Cyndi Lauper obsession.

Goonies.

Going to the movies to see 'Encino Man,' and loving it.

Hi-lighter colours everywhere and on everything.

Remember the good old days, when the contestants on Wheel of Fortune had to shop for shit after each round. "I'll take the ceramic dalmation for $500, Pat." happy:

This topic is depressingly nostalgic. I have personally experienced more than 80% of that... and with good memories too. My goodness, how time flies... loney:
