+therealbountybob Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Bringing out the Big Guns for HSC Round 4: "Classics #1" Checkout Atarimania for information on the games Poll Closes Sunday 15th March around 10am UK time Alley Cat Rolled over from round 3's poll: Amazing fun, multi-screen shenanigans, levels up micely you need to master making the big leaps onto the tall bins to avoid the dog: run then push diagonal up! Fandal Donkey Kong Will feature some sort of special stipulation to keep this interesting! [plans afoot] Fandal Qix I love Qix - we'll play A8 ver - yes it is as good as the 5200 port (but some file versions are a little buggy) Fandal Missile Command I love Missile Command! Fandal Blue Max Superb Fandal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playermissile Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Missile Command is in my queue to review; if it happens to win this week I'll push it up and review it for the next podcast episode. I'm looking forward to digging into its history and especially the GCC arcade hack Super Missile Attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballyalley Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Which version of Qix are we talking about here? This will be the deciding factor for me. If it's the original Qix for the Atari 8-Bit then I won't vote for it. If it's the unofficial (I think) Atari 5200 port, then I'd be swayed and I've vote for this one. The original version of Qix was much too slow and I really don't care for it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It WAS the original A8 ver! - don't be put off both are very good and extremely challenging - I don't think it is slow - perhaps the first 3 waves before it speeds up, but it's a while since I played We might have a ports poll / round later in the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballyalley Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 It WAS the original A8 ver! - don't be put off both are very good and extremely challenging In that case, I really do have to vote for something else (which I just did). If there is a port round this season, and Qix for the 5200 is included, then I'll vote for it then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
