Atreyu Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Power Rangers. VR Troopers. Big Bad Beetle Borgs. Quality rap as depicted below. Ninja Turtles. Batman the animated series. X-Men. The Square One block on PBS. Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego. Pre-Family Guy Simpsons. Pogs and slammers. The rewind button. "Don't touch that dial" actually meaning something. The channel "U" on said dial. (not sure how old the TV really was.) Tiny Toons. Tale Spin. Duck Tales. Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers. Sneaking a peek at my brother's playboy when he didn't know. Playboy being a prime source of mature entertainment before internet. Walking in on my parents. (No wait. That's one of the bad memories. ><) Tazmania. Captain N. The Super Mario Bros Super Show. Fear of riding a bike because of falling the first time. Gargoyles. Space Jam. Climbing that tree at church after the service. Finally getting my own NES with SMB3 included. Star Trek TNG and DS9. Playing as the blue ranger at the bus stop and playground. (At least they let me play a ranger and not a putty.) That's all I can really think of. Link to comment

Chaos63 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Well, first thing that comes to mind is the pokemons. Every kid in the neighbourhood was obsessed with the stuff, we had VCR tapes, playing cards, figurines, sticky album cards...all of which we vigorously traded for, and even invented a couple games to win over eachother's stuff. Now we're all grown men, many of which are married with kids of their own...bah, reminiscing does nobody any good. Link to comment
Yoo Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Arcades crowded with ppl ready to challenge you at some random game. The lack of smartphones, so you could speak to someone that wasnt staring at a tiny screen... Rocco's Modern Life Ren & Stimpy Smashing Pumpkins Early Albums of Bjork Ye good ol' Korn 80's Metallica The first Metal Slug on arcades The King of Fighters old arcades Duke Nukem 3D Quake 2 Unreal And I could keep naming things, but to resume, I miss almost everything...

Cynical Misanthrope Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 The music was generally better in the 80s-90s than it is now, but I think pretty much every generation would say that for the music they grew up with. It just saddens me that nowadays kids like Bieber get all the attention when we should be looking for people who can actually sing and write their own music like the good old days. And I cannot stand "music" like Dub step unless it actually tries to have a melody to it. And I envy people who grew up in the 60s when you could tell when someone knew how to sing and play... nowadays we've got the dreaded auto-tune. Please marry me? Or at least I wanna have your babies! I were born in 1980 and I barely remember what I did yesterday, much less in the 90's. A few things I do remember thou. The TMNT, and Darkwing Duck! Not to mention LEGO, and the NES. I discovered Metal music, but most of it came from the 80's, so not sure it counts. I'm really having trouble remember anything else right now. The 90's in general, were not so great for me, in terms of living a happy life. So I have mostly suppressed that time period. Link to comment

Jordick Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Mostly the music, good old punk. It just ain't the same these days, except with few bands that are still doing the same music after all this time. ps. Don't mind that shitty hiphop stuff in the playlist. The maker of that playlist just seems to have bad taste in music. Link to comment
Neromak Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Summer of '91 took a trip around Europe, that was awesome. Link to comment

Guest endgameaddiction Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The Crow came out in 1994 and I fell in love with that movie since a kid. Edit: And I saw my first Nascar race live at Las Vegas Speedway back then. Was awesome. Link to comment
