Celebrate GBAtemp's 20th birthday month in style ... 2002 style!

Take a journey back to the past with our limited-time retro, throwback style!

This nostalgic GBAtemp style harkens back to GBAtemp's past and is a recreation of the forum style used between 2002 and 2006. While not totally accurate, we thought it would be a fun way to browse GBAtemp as we celebrate our 20th anniversary.

Did someone say "pips"?

Yes, pips are also making a return! You'll find them proudly displayed on your profile and next to posts replacing the XP level bar on this style (don't worry, you'll still accumulate and gain XP even if you're using the throwback style).

Interested in reading more about pips? View the Member Ranks article on our Wiki for more information! Pip pip! Cheerio!

Happy 20th birthday, GBAtemp! :grog:

    @Xdqwerty, Don't use games that have Easy Anti-Cheat as its been exploited many times.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    @SylverReZ, i think they have been doing that since late 2000s

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, I have a rom of the ds version of impossible mission
    Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty: @Psionic Roshambo, I have a rom of the ds version of impossible mission
