TeCmO_sUpEr_BoWl Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 I name the people after famous celebrities. It makes their deaths that much more comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buck Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 are you guys talking about that C64 game? all I remember is hitting the spacebar - trying to shoot a green outline of a deer running across the screen. brookstonfowler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knobbe Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 To me the Oregon Trail was essentially the birthing place of Buck Hunter.Give me the farmer, one of everything, 20 lbs of food and the rest in bullets. Better start in March because I'm going to need time to kill everything on the prairies. kamphuna8 and buck 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buck Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) These are the sweet lime-green on black graphics of the Oregon Trail I played as a (maybe a 4th or 5th grade) boy. Never saw it again. Edited January 21, 2015 by buck rmm1976 and kamphuna8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeCmO_sUpEr_BoWl Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 DOSbox and some roms is how you would play them. I still can't figure out how a game that involved the ability to hunt animals to extinction and blatant stereotyping was allowed in classrooms.

buck Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) nice reading comprehension. I said that not allowing the idea of hunting animals to extinction and not allowing the idea of blatantly stereotyping in the classroom is pussyness.

Yeah, it could be considered an emulator. If you want, I could just give you a link to a website where you could play it online. The version of Oregon that i played was the deluxe version.

stalltalk Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I have fond memories of playing this in the computer lab in 2nd grade. I would name one of the party members after my then crush and they would always die of dysentery. Jfagundes04 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thalivest Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Knobbe thanks for the link. Just played this and 4 of my people died when crossing some river (they drowned), I remained and made it all the way to the Dallies, one landmark away from the finish and died of dysentery. What actually happens when you complete this cause I've never done it. Also, anyone know where I can play Carmen San Diego? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
