So what game are you retrogaming with lately?

I was trying to play the PC version of "Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance" and it works fine - except its unplayable with my XBOX 360 controller. The game does not allow mapping buttons to joystick axis, so I can't use the triggers (which register as the Z-axis).
Besides emulation the most 'retro' game I have installed is Sega Rally from 2006. Not sure a Pixel Shader 3.0 game can really be considered retro.

After watching the video from this post, I've been trying the Mega Man series on NES again.
I've been trying it without cheats, or guides. I used to know the correct order of bosses/levels to go in to make it easier, but I don't remember now. How in the world did I ever have the patience for these games back then? They're very hard games but just as rewarding when you beat a boss. I always suck once I get to the Dr. Wily stages.

I still play a bunch of old DOS pinball games via DOSbox, like Pinball Dreams and Epic Pinball. Brings me back to the simpler times.

Never had the pleasure of seeing this in the arcade, so it's like a brand new game to me and the concept is awesome. High quality vertical shooter with lock on missiles for ground targets. Lock up to 8 targets at once for maximum bonus. Tough but beatable bosses, intense shot avoidance, high dynamic soundtrack and effects through my woofer/tweeter crossover setup and fantastic visual effects unlike any other shooter out there. I'd probably grab the board if I could find it for a fair price.
