Sara has died of Dysentry--The Oregon Trail Appreciation Thread

[Drakon]

One of the first PC games I've ever played, and to this day still a good memory, as well as an excellent reference joke.

 

[블라스]

That thread title scared the **** out of me

 

[Frizzo the Clown]

Oh, I love this game. I always sucked at it, but I loved it none-the-less.

 

[Drakon]

I loved it too.

Gammy-I didn't even think of that! Thwip will kill me!

 

[imdaly]

I was just searching Yahoo for Oregon Trail screenshots, and found something infinitely better!

[Drakon]

Aww, man. that rocks.

 

[Mentok]

I loved the game

 

[SLVRSR4]

My brother and i bought all the ammunition and just shot things Then a few years later i found a ancient mac and had to play it again. I was bitten by a snake and killed several times

 

[Frizzo the Clown]

Everytime I'm in Independence, MO I try to find a wagon train to join, but no such luck. Bastards.

 

[Mentok]

Best river crossing game ever.

 

[Malice]

I loved it too.

Gammy-I didn't even think of that! Thwip will kill me!

[Drakon]

Anyone find a shareware version of that?

 

[boywonder13]

i looked around for one but all of them are scams just to get u to do a survey or you have to end up paying even though it says it for free....

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

 

[Drakon]

Look at the title of Gammy's first post

 

[KingOfDreams]

Hell yes! I love the game, every version of it. I remember playing the really old school version with big pixels on Apple computers (not Macintosh...Apple) in elementary school.

 

[Wolfwood]

When I got my very first computer, I was able to get one game and I picked Oregon Trail. I remember rabbits were so damn hard to kill cause they'd run across the screen really quick. Normally, I'd just shoot a slow moving buffalo and that would've fed my family for weeks, but cause that bunny was moving so fast I always had to shoot it, it was taunting me.

 

[KingOfDreams]

Yeah! Damn rabbits. I remember feeling kind of bad for the virtual animals I was shooting. That prooves I've been a hippie since birth.

OOOOOOOOHHHHHHH.........NOW I GET IT (WELL, EXCEPT FOR THE "MOVIE" PART OF YOUR PREVIOUS POST )

 

[Drakon]

That was just a typo. I was talking to Jeannette about what movie we should watch, and typed Movie. Freudian Slip, as it were.

I never cared too much to pay attention to how deep the rivers were, so I had many, many, many children drown on me.
