Re: Top 10 Atari 2600 Games

I believe it was Tengen but someone did release an Indiana Jones game on the NES, it was completely different than the one in discussion though (I agree, it would have benefitted immensely from the newer systems capabilities-and oh I don't know, maybe if it was a little closer to the movie it was na...

Re: Hello all

I have noticed that Rob. I recently picked up Game Informer 58 through 64 for $2 a piece and already have it arranged with another ebay member to sell them all to him for $40 plus $5 shipping and I spent less than $20 total. Of course he is a reseller so that is expected. Of course they will be scan...

Re: Hello all

Carlos, you should have been on ebay about a month ago, there were all kinds of old gaming mag auctions up (I sold Gamefan #3 in bad condition for $13), watched someone pay $475 for Gamefan #1 then another guy bought #2 for $250. On the same day, watched a set of Game Informers #1 through 10 go for ...

Re: Top 10 Atari 2600 Games

So that was the point of that parachute huh? My brother used to walk through that game unless he hit a certain spot I think in the game version of the lounge or something and then he would reset. Been years since I played it so please forgive me if I am off on the names of the areas. I just remember...

Re: Top 10 Atari 2600 Games

I played a bunch back in the day but the only ones that still stick out in my mind are Maze Craze (first game I ever had for Atari and my earliest memory of a gift from my dad-still have it here). Um, was it Space Caverns that you were at the bottom of the screen shooting up at creatures flying and ...

Re: Ever wondered why the 16-bit to 4-bit games wrocked?

I definitely feel there was more licensing of obscure stuff in the 2D days than there is now with 3D taking over like it has (Fido Dido, Chester Cheetah-2 games for him among others like Spot the old 7-Up mascot). Not saying those games are great, although Spot was pretty good, just that everyone is...

Re: Some of the (still good!) more obscure Genesis games

Star Flight. Ah, the memories, the time spent keeping records of things in that game. The feeling of accomplishment when I realized that one race was speaking in binary. So many cool memories from that game. Which reminds me of Star Control 2 on 3D0 (I loved that game too for pretty much the same re...

Hello all

Hi, I am 32 years old and am somewhat of a video game fanatic, currently in the magazine collecting phaze and not so much the gaming part (though what I have keeps me pretty much in games with no problem). Great site, love the icons there on the left of this window while typing. Talked a little with...
