... it was complicated and I just used to wander around the sub and then emergency surface

# did he have the
hiccups?

ecco the dolphin was pretty good in a sort of way where it would have been better if it had involved guns somehow.

# The only cool thing he did was jump

# I played ecco for the 1st time last year on my PSP (magadrive collection)
I assumed that the years had not been kind. Was it just as shit in 1992?

# that's the thing with most old games
they're great in reminiscence (and actually were good in their days), but when you break out the ol' C64 to get "that feeling" again, it's mostly a collection of bad graphics, lagged controls and simple-minded gameplay. Nostalgia's meant to stay in one's head.
(except for some remarkable pearls like e.g. Civilisation)

Syndicate, Cannon Fodder, Maga-Lo-Mania & Hunter.

The rest is best left in my head (like wot you said)
