Who remembers this one? Primal Rage was a fighting game that contained animals and dinosaurs kicking seven shades of sh*t out of each other. It was released on most consoles back in 1994 and even had a film released last year. Did you play this game? Do you remember much about it? @sega @nintendouk #megadrive #sega #nintendo #gamegear #snes #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #photooftheday @nintendoeurope @nintendo @nintendonyc @nintendo_jp #primalrage https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu9PIAllCPy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qxzejrjbrfh6

Here's the snooker table on Micro Machines. Remember the pockets and racing round the edge? I'll get some videos up of these levels soon. #micromachines @sega @nintendouk #megadrive #sega #nintendo #gamegear #snes #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #photooftheday @nintendoeurope @nintendo @nintendonyc @nintendo_jp https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu87glqlOND/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=123kdy2sr4cn5

Does anyone remember playing this game? It's called GunGrave and appears to be an anime inspired shooter that hinges around gaining combos. The intro sequence looks fantastic but the game itself looks a bit one dimensional. Did you play this game? Is it a good game? @playstation #playstation #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogamer #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #retrogaminglife #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogamer #videogames #photooftheday #gungrave #animegame #anime @sony https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu8qpgoFezh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=110uf9fub4dz7

If this lady didn't give you a safety dressing down then you never owned a PlayStation 2. These were the days when EA used to give little safety briefs at the start of their games to stop you from driving like a pleb. I could drive back in 2004 when this game was released but I think I might have been in a 1.2ltr Vauxhall Corsa, not exactly something that'll be on the box art for the next Need for Speed game. Do you remember being told what to do by this animation? Do you remember any cars you modified in this game? @ea @needforspeed @playstation @xbox #needforspeed #playstation #xbox #ea #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #games #gamer #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #retrocollective #retrogamer #retrogames #retrocollector #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamers #videogaming #videogamer #videogames #needforspeedunderground https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu8kJYelbXc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=syc7oefphb3p

There are certain times in life that genius touches your life and you have to grab it with both hands and bask in its glory. I don't know the person who wrote this sign, but I can tell you that it sits on an air pipe in the factory. If I did know the person who wrote it I would lavish them with praise and gifts and they would forever be heralded at a god amoungst men. Drink it in. #funnysigns #funnysign #funnysignage #funnysignoftheday #photooftheday #picoftheday #instagood #instadaily #instafunny #funny #funnyposts #funnyshit #funnyaf #funnypic #work #signwork #worksign #signsatwork #worksigns #gamerguy #gamecollection #gamingcommunity #gamecollector #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #retrocollective #retrogamingcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu7BCScFEw8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1a9gph8i1xjf2

Micro Machines really seemed to strike a memory nerve in alot of you guys so I managed to get the full list of playable characters from the game into the screenshots. Sadly, there's 11 but Walter can be seen in the last shot. Who did you use to race as? Who did you choose to race against? #micromachines @sega @nintendouk #megadrive #sega #nintendo #gamegear #snes #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #photooftheday @nintendoeurope @nintendo @nintendonyc @nintendo_jp https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu6vMValEyZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3z0qri5kgkwo

That was the hardest and slowest 100 followers I've gained since joining Instagram. It's all thanks to fake profiles, follow chasers and arrogant people who follow then unfollow. It really ruins the whole experience behind social media. Thank you to every genuine person following my page. You really are the best. You are the reason I continue to upload to the page. Without you guys I would have packed it in because there's nothing more disheartening than seeing your followers fall after putting in the effort to edit and post. Thank you guys!

I didn't know this game existed until last night. 1994 release Lamborghini American Challenge appears to be released on Nintendo and Amiga consoles and looks very reminiscent of Outrun. Lots of other cars on the road, random umbrellas blowing across the road and police chases. This looks like a lot of fun. Did you ever play this game? Was it very much like Outrun? @lamborghini @lamborghinisc @nintendoeurope @nintendouk #nintendo #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #photooftheday #retrocollective #retrogamer #retrogames #retrogame #retrocollector #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogaming #videogamers #videogame #videogamer #videogames #lamborghini #snes #amiga https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu6LcHTlLw-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=f5g79bfamrwl

Following on from the success of their first installment, Juiced Games and THQ released their second title in the series Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights. This was very heavily influenced by The Fast and the Furious movies, so contained scantily clad ladies and a lot of modifications to choose from as well as a wide variety of motors from the tuner markets of the day. My big brother worked on this game so I was able to get it at a knocked down price and I loved it. Being a modified petrol head at heart it ticked all the right boxes. Did you play this game much? Did you enjoy it? #juiced #thq #racinggame #gamerguy #gaming #gamingcommunity #gearhead #gamecollection #games #gearheads #gamers #gamecollector #petrolhead #petrolheads #photooftheday #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #videogamers #videogaming #videogame #videogamer #videogames #modifiedcars #cargame #game #picoftheday #instagame #juiced2 @fastcarmagazine https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu43ajal-wQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11exrkbwlrjnk

This was second offering by Rocksteady studios to bring Batman to life, Batman: Arkham City. I adored Arkham Asylum so it was a natural progression to buy this one as well. I did enjoy this title, it looked great and still made you feel awesome when you cleared a room full of bad guys without being seen. With them opening the game up to an open world, however, it made it quite difficult to complete it to 100%. After my testing days I've become a big completionist and I never got to complete this brilliant game. Did you love this game as much as the first title in the series? Or maybe even more? @warnerbrosentertainment @dccomics #batman #xbox #playstation #arkhamcity #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamer #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #instabatman #retrocollective #retrogamer #retrocollector #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #retrogaminglife #videogamers #videogaming #videogamer #videogames #photooftheday https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu4KOaglsgT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1sywheqzuclfg

I'm thinking this might strike up some memories with a lot of people on here. Micro machines is a game that, whenever you mention retro games, appears somewhere in people's history. It was released in 1991 for, practically, every console around and is still having games released today. I had my version on the Game Gear and I loved it. Did you play this game much? Do you remember any levels from it? #micromachines @sega @nintendouk #megadrive #sega #nintendo #gamegear #snes #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #photooftheday @nintendoeurope @nintendo @nintendonyc @nintendo_jp https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu3xbIEF1FC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fzw6c3c5ku06

Which did you prefer? These two games are some of the most liked and most commented on in my page. So maybe we should put them up against each other. Both games I would count as masterpieces and genre defining, but what do you think? @konami @hideo_kojima @playstation #metalgearsolid #hideokojima #metalgearsolid2 #konami #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #games #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instaretro #photooftheday #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #retrogaming #videogaming #instadaily https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu3f9LClFaV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bg4uwg26bq6g

Anyone remember this game? This is F-Zero that was originally released on the SNES, it was then released on numourous other Nintendo consoles. It was a futuristic racing game that had very minor comparisons to Mario Kart. It was fairly one dimensional but it was a fun enough game. Did you play this Nintendo racer? Which vehicle did you use the most? @nintendoeurope @nintendouk #nintendo #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #games #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #photooftheday #retrocollective #retrogamer #retrogames #retrogame #retrocollector #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogaming #videogamers #videogame #videogamer #videogames #fzero #snes https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu11AWHlKcP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5s0z103xdyr0

Turok is a gaming series I have never touched. I bought a second hand PS2 off eBay some time ago and this, Turok Evolution, was included in the bundle. I've only run the introduction sequence but I'm unsure of what else the game entails. Can anyone help? Are you a fan of this series? Can you tell me if it's worth giving it a go? #turok #playstation2 #playstation #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #games #gamer #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instadaily #instagamer #instaretro #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogamer #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #photooftheday https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu1D-dUFXqz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1uavmsr95orsr

This was the game my PS4 came with and I was told it was like Tomb Raider for the newest generation. I wasn't disappointed. Uncharted 4 is the only game in the Uncharted library I've played and, while it does have some very obvious similarities to Lara Croft, it also has enough to allow it to stand alone as a great action adventure game. I've been told that I should play these from the start and I very much plan too. Have you played the whole series? Are they worth investing time in? @playstation @playstation.zone @sony #sony #playstation #playstation4 #exclusive #gaming #game #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #games #gamer #gamers #gamecollector #videogamecollector #photooftheday #picoftheday #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogamer #videogames #instagood #instagaming #instagame #instagamer #instadaily #hobby #uncharted4 #uncharted #naughtydog @naughty_dog_inc https://www.instagram.com/p/BuzhDjxlFlp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17bdk39upu0r5

The simpsons has had numourous spin offs when it comes to games. 1991 / 92 saw this one. Bart Vs The Space Mutants was a game I never played but after a conversation with a friend in work he said it was one of his favourite games of all time. I gave the first level a little go but I was a bit lost as to what I was meant to do. As far as I could work out I had to get rid of purple items and avoid the aliens wondering round. Did you play this game? What did you have to do in it? @thesimpsons @sega @segaforever @nintendouk @nintendoeurope #segagenesis #sega #megadrive #gaming #gamecollection #gamerguy #gamingcommunity #gamers #gamecollector #instagood #instagaming #instagamer #instadaily #instaretro #photooftheday #retrocollective #retrocollector #retrogamer #retrogames #retrogamingcommunity #retrogamers #retrogamescollector #retrogaming #videogamecollector #videogamers #videogamecollection #videogaming #videogames #nintendo #thesimpsons https://www.instagram.com/p/BuyfJedlvLq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=o3ii8zckvrot
