I don't belive that anyone's actually made it to Oregon...

...in Oregon Trail. NO FUCKING WAY. They throw way too much bullshit your way to ever make it past the halfway point... and where's the option to eat your crew members if they die? Bullshit.

 

i ALWAYS got dysentary, and had to leave my kids at the river

 

Went with the Doctor and everyone STILL died of crazy diseases(especially dysentery).

 

Oooo,Hell--I didn't know you typing about a game. Doh!!

 

Nice. Real life pioneers are about a million times tougher than video game ones for sure.

 

I always hated that game

 

all i remember is playing it at the autism center.. i shot a buffalo in the butt and was told that "butt" was a bad word... they should see me now

 

lol. Where are you, 1997?


But seriously, that game ruled. I used to play it in public school. I made it many times. I was a total champ at that game. We used to play this awesome trucking game too.

 

i always died from running out of supplies

 

Dude, that game's easy as fuck.

I mean, I've never had EVERY party member make it. But I don't think I've ever not made it..

 

I just downloaded this game for free, thanks for reminding me about it

 

i was thinking about the same thing

 

Amazon's Trail is real good too

 

Yeah, got the reminiscing and Oregon Trail came up so I had to d/l it Duck, you are a beast. No matter how I ration, rest, go at a steady pace I never make it. The trail is riddled with my graves! hahaha. luna, 97? I was playing that back in 92... damn I'm getting old DOS BABY!!

 

I don't know what to tell you. It's been a long time since I've played.

I usually went an uneven pace, slowing down when someone was sick or whatnot, but keeping up speed when everything was going good. Resting is important, hunting is important.

If you keep it up, I'm sure you'll see that glorious ending screen eventually =P

DOS is still my favorite. I've been looking into getting a real old computer or something so all my DOS games will work. RIP Epic Pinball, One Must Fall 2097, and Monuments of Mars

 

I just beat it, oregon trail. I travelled the whole trail at a "grueling" pace and not one of my party nor 1 of my 8 oxen died. That's right...not one death!
