Intellfan Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I know some people on here are great at almost every game they play . Sadly I am not one of them . I was curious if you had to pick one game to play that you think you could win at ,what would it be? Mine would have to be Skiing Back in the day I would of said Baseball but i am long past my prime now . Bi Planes is also on top of the list that i am good at . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Was playing Venture the other day on "hard" (Skill #4) and turned the system off before too long, was getting *that* bored beating level after level. lmao Still pretty good at Baseball, but do find myself getting tripped up when fielding or throwing to the correct base these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intellivotion Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I was used to score about 31,000 points at Ice Trek, and I think I was pretty good at it. I've read somewhere that an easter egg appears on the ice castle level if you score at least 32,000 points, so I've never been able to see it. Did anyone? I am also good at Cloudy Mountain and Treasure of Tarmin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1980gamer Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 BITD... Baseball, Football, Astrosmash, Auto Racing, Bump n Jump.... Pretty good at Soccer, Basketball and Pinball Now...Auto racing Yeah, that will just about cover it! I Played Christmas Carrol last night. Level 7 around 700 points. I thought I was bad last year. I do plan to play a few more times before the 25th. Oh Bowling. I can still get a 300 pretty often and over 100 in pickup spares. Maybe I need to get into the HSC more often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BBWW Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Happy Trails and LocoMotion been a long time since I've thought about scores... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1980gamer Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I liked locomotion but I was never good at it. I know happy trails is similar, but I cannot remember playing it? I need to try this game again. Could help to keep the mind sharp. It is the hand eye that could be the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) Tron Deadly Discs, yet currently GoSub! is the game I am playing very well!!

Utopia Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) Anyone else for Utopia! I used to play the crap out of this but don't have a playing partner anymore. I also loved Auto Racing, Space Battle and Astrosmash, but fast forward to now and I would say 4-Tris is a big fav' I play well.

spacecadet Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) I guess I'd say Space Battle and Demon Attack. Probably add Auto Racing and B-17 Bomber in there, but it's been a while. Last time I played Space Battle, I actually couldn't lose. I probably just didn't play long enough, but I got bored and stopped. Ditto for Demon Attack. These are fairly simple games so it's not like I play for 12 hours straight, but I can play both for long enough that I just lose interest long before I lose the game. Auto Racing I haven't really played seriously since I was a kid, but in general I'm still pretty good at driving games and I do remember knowing all the tricks in that game to the point that it was boring - just no challenge at all. I don't remember which steering version I had as a kid, though; maybe the one I *didn't* have would be harder. The funny thing was this was pre-internet and before even any games magazines or anything; I learned all the shortcuts and exploits completely through trial and error (including the straight line you could take all the way around the world). And I was really good at the actual driving too. Same with B-17... I'd play a single game for hours. Haven't done that for a long time either, but I'm sure I could pick it up again.

+save2600 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Oh now you guys are listing *several* games you're good at. Okay, another I find myself doing pretty well at would be Pinball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Worm Whomper, Frog Bog, Christmas Carol, and Mouse Trap. Well, maybe not good at Carol, but I can save Christmas a few times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Jay Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 When I was younger everyone in my family hated playing me in SharkShark and Biplanes. Now, I feel hopelessly inadequate in most of the games I play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmart604 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 It struck me that many of us think we're unbeatable at Baseball which makes me think we need to organize an Inty baseball tourney at PRGE 2017. Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best time at Intellivision downhill skiing was 34.4s. I remember as a child, it was hard to get under 35, and then I got 34.6 and then I was surprised to get 34.4. Just curious if a better time is possible? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I used to be the best Christmas Carol player, and I had the highest score evah! And then... I released the game and others played it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+thegoldenband Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 And Sewer Sam? Ha, probably! But if we ever have a HSC in the game, I'm happy to share my strategies and will no doubt soon be surpassed. In Championship Tennis, OTOH, I have a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long tennis career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m-crew Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 For Me it's any maze game - but I guess it all depends on which game I'm playing at the time. Never been good at sliding puzzle games. Happy Trails and LocoMotion are pretty frustrating for me. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
