pokeplayer984 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Well, this month, I'm doing Let's Plays of Atari 2600 games. So, I hope you enjoy them. Here's what I have so far. Asteroids: http://blip.tv/file/4965824 Frogger: http://blip.tv/file/4977807 Please tell me what you think. Oh, and if you guys have any suggestions of what to Let's Play, I'd be happy to have them. Just one thing... DO NOT MAKE A SUGGESTION FOR ANY OF THE ATARI PORN GAMES! This mainly has to do with me wanting to keep it PG-13 rated. So, sorry guys, but I'm staying away from those. Still, aside from that, I'd love to hear any suggestions you may have. See ya later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keilbaca Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 (edited) Crackpots! Quadrun! If you want to do a one a week thing, you can play with us at the High Score Club, and do your Lets Play as we play games...

If you want to do a one a week thing, you can play with us at the High Score Club, and do your Lets Play as we play games... +1 Good idea. I had started something like that, gathered all the videos and all, then just grew bored of it for some unknown reason. Must be my ADD kicking in... but yes, I was going to do it as we played the Atari 2600 HSC... and it wouldn't be that hard to set up either. Use a VCR to be the splitter, one to the tv, one to the laptop. Play your game, hit record, talk about it as you play, or wait till after, whichever you prefer.

Actually, I'm trying to do as many as I can, but I'll see if I can fit those in somehow. And thanks for the suggestions. I'll check them out when I get the chance. Anyways, here's the next one. Space Invaders: http://blip.tv/file/4985596 Simple game, but seriously, what's the story behind this one? I do take a guess in the video, but I doubt it's correct. Hope you like it. See ya later!

opeygon Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 So what Frogger are you playing? Because it doesn't look anything like my Frogger for the 2600? Also, you should try getting an actual 2600 to play on instead of that Emulator your using Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 So what Frogger are you playing? Because it doesn't look anything like my Frogger for the 2600? Also, you should try getting an actual 2600 to play on instead of that Emulator your using The Frogger I got was off of a site called CoolROM. To be honest, I wasn't aware it was different from the original. Second, I do happen to have a REAL Atari 2600, but the ONLY reason I'm using an emulator is my inability to record off of my Atari. Sure, I do have recording equipment, but it's broken and I'm trying to replace it. That and I've misplaced my Atari 2600. I'll fire it up again if I ever find it in my pile of junk that I have. Besides, an emulator will give me free range to try a bunch of Atari games I've never played before, and that's one thing I want to accomplish while doing this "Atari Month" special. I did play Atari, but there were a lot of games in it's massive library that I never played. It would be nice to know what I missed. Plus, if I do pick a game out of the recommendations to Let's Play, I'll give a Shout Out to those who made said recommendation. So yeah, it's something special for the audience too. Well, see ya later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwane413 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 So what Frogger are you playing? Because it doesn't look anything like my Frogger for the 2600? It looks like he's playing Starpath's The Official Frogger by Sega. This is the version for the Supercharger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) Okay, here's some good news and some bad news. The Good News: I found my Atari 2600! The Bad News: It doesn't work on my TV! So yeah, I need to get the necessary adapter before I can play it again. In the meantime though, here's my next Let's Play. Centipede: http://blip.tv/file/4989926 To be honest, I have an interesting story for this one. Enjoy! EDIT: So what Frogger are you playing? Because it doesn't look anything like my Frogger for the 2600? It looks like he's playing Starpath's The Official Frogger by Sega. This is the version for the Supercharger. Thank you for pointing it out! I've made the necessary changes. Once I get all the necessary equipment to record off of my Atari, I'll make sure the Parker Brother's Version is the first game I do. Oh, and if you guys want to check out my other Let's Plays, just look at my newly updated signature.

pokeplayer984 Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share Posted April 10, 2011 Okay, sorry it's been a bit, but I've been lazy lately. So yeah, sorry! Anyways, this one's a little special. Crackpots: http://blip.tv/file/5000306 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) And now for a game I suck at! Breakout: http://blip.tv/file/5013611 Next game though, I suck even more at. Edited April 13, 2011 by pokeplayer984 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dweller7777 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Well.. you only "suck" at it because it appears to me you're playing on an emulator, with your mouse. I think everyone will agree that's not the proper way to play paddle games. Nothing compares to a paddle controller. They're quite easy, in fact! You should try!

Crackpots: http://blip.tv/file/5000306 Its fine, you kinda did, its "keel" "baka." The game is fun, once you play it for a bit. It gets really fast too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OftQh3uZWdk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I explain my predicament in the following video. Super Breakout: http://blip.tv/file/5027172 Seriously speaking, I really wish I wasn't forced like this. EDIT: Also guys, PLEASE give me some suggestions here! I'm terrible at making choices. (Believe me, my mom would know. ) Edited April 16, 2011 by pokeplayer984 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 And now for a game that I have NO idea what I'm doing. Riddle of the Sphinx: http://blip.tv/file/5034699 At the time of the recording, I didn't know what to do, but now I do. I read the manual after the recording and got a basic idea. Now I know you need 2 controllers, which means I'll have to wait before I play it again. Next up, my commentary on my Worm War 1 High Score attempt.

keilbaca Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Definitely do Adventures of TRON and TRON Deadly Discs in a single long episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Definitely do Adventures of TRON and TRON Deadly Discs in a single long episode. I prefer to keep my videos up to 30 minutes long. I don't want to drive away the potential of a crowd just because I have long videos. Yet, I'll see what I can do about putting those games in. Anyways, here it is! My High Score Attempt for last week's Worm War 1. Part 1: http://blip.tv/file/5041480 Part 2: http://blip.tv/file/5041633 Man, looking back, it really had the potential to keep screwing me over. Now, if you guys don't mind, I need to spend the day trying to get a High Score for Frostbite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 And now for my next one. Frostbite: http://blip.tv/file/5053440 Building Igloos is serious business! Next up, my triple feature! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 Here it is! The Triple Feature! I present the first "Mario" Games! Donkey Kong: http://blip.tv/file/5059168 Donkey Kong Jr: http://blip.tv/file/5060823 Mario Bros: http://blip.tv/file/5060930 I'll try to get a double feature up next. See ya later!

pokeplayer984 Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 (edited) And now, the Pac-Man Games! I have some fond memories of these. Pac-Man: http://blip.tv/file/5073943 Ms. Pac-Man: http://blip.tv/file/5073984 We're coming down to the end of the month. I'll try to get another up tonight.

pokeplayer984 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 I'll have to finish this whole thing up later! My computer has been having problems, and my hard drive is very lucky to be working right now, so I'm taking this chance to back-up my files, after which I'll be getting a brand new 2 TB Hard Drive that I've been interested in for some time. I'm not sure when my current 1 TB hard drive will stop working on me, so for now, I have to sadly halt the project. I'll get right on it as soon as I have my drive ready again. I promise! So, I'll see ya guys later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeplayer984 Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) Okay guys, sorry about it taking so long, but here's my newest one. Frogger by Hasbro: http://blip.tv/file/5101916 Also, I have one of the worst controllers ever for this. So, don't be surprised how bad I do. See ya later!

pokeplayer984 Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) Hey guys! Sorry it's been a while, but here's a new one for ya. Pitfall: http://www.blip.tv/file/5140890 Ah, the classics never die, do they? Oh, and from now on, I'm going to try to get one new Atari Let's Play in every week. (They will appear every Sunday from here on out though. This is an early one for you guys, because you are just that special. ) So yeah, suggestions are still open. I'll see ya later! EDIT: Oh, one last thing, expect this to be the last video with that little "intro" of mine. I feel that it needs to go. However, I might come up with a new one. Maybe.
