Nice game. Like all good Atari games, simple yet addictive. And in BASIC?! Color me impressed.

What size TV do you play your Atari & retro games on?
godzillajoe replied to sloth-machine's topic in Atari 2600
Upstairs 32" LG LCD TV Downstairs in the "game room" 19" wood panel CRT TV that I found in the trash at the old apartment It had a sign on it that said "works but is ugly" Perfect for the 26, 52 and 7800 -
eBay it as a "deluxe collector's edition"
-
If it moves, shoot it! Add Seaquest to the ones mentioned above.

This is why I hate the whole idea of pre-paying for a concept. Hopefully no one gets screwed out of $$$$ That said, I hope the guy is OK, I had some dealings with him with Endless Snow and he seemed like a decent guy.

This one actually looks nice. At least, now.

My parents were from Poland and had kids later in life. My mom maybe tried it a few times and didn't care for it and my dad thought it was a waste of time and would damage the TV. Funny enough years later, my mom loved Hoyle Casino on my Dreamcast I did have an "uncle-in-law" that bought a 5200 and a Vectrex

Well of course, but it's not 1977 anymore. Once you get something like Toyshop Trouble or Medieval Mayhem, going backwards seems silly. But hey, no one's putting a gun to anyone's head. And once in a while, something decent comes along, so keep at it, who am I to tell anyone what to do.

OK I really don't care what people spend their money on but exactly which games are you talking about. Most bB games I've seen are one sprite chasing another sprite around a blocky playfield and that's passed off as a "game" There are some exceptions but I think in general it's hurt the scene more than it's helped. What games would you consider "better" than a commercial release? One of the new Donkey Kongs was bB right? That's pretty slick. Seaweed Assault is kinda fun. That Snowfall game was pretty good. What else?

looking for Atari version of this game...
godzillajoe replied to Atari-Collector's topic in Atari 2600
Check out on YouTube how they play to see if they're something you're into atari (game name) gameplay -
And they also explode out of the horizon. Pole Position seems to have it right where you can see a car in the distance and have time to react

SHARKNADO (Atari 2600) Put On Hold/Cancelled
godzillajoe replied to neotokeo2001's topic in Atari 2600
I actually own that Dance Godzilla CD! By some dude called "Atom" Found it in an anime store ages ago. -
I think we paid $150 for ours. Not sure of the year. I think 1981 since Missile Command was already out.
-
Well Atari games do require a bit of imagination. I guess I could lay off the pedal a bit but whoever goes less than top speed when playing? I'm gonna have to do some racing today.
-
I still play them and Enduro esp. with the seasons is a lot of fun, I just sometimes wish the cars didn't come shooting out of the distance like they were standing still. I mean in Enduro you have to pass like 100 cars. Are they all just driving 25MPH and texting?
-
Well Grand Prix just looks so damn nice with those giant cars
-
Just a little rant here. I know they're not realistic but what always drives me crazy is how the other cars are apparently going 25 MPH. Look at something like Grand Prix, you're always slamming into the back of these granny drivers. Would be nice if a game existed where the other cars were just slightly slower so you could overtake them or steer around them instead of them just suddenly flying onto the screen. End of rant,

Wow, right down the road, a gold mine!

What activities haven't been simulated on the Atari 2600?
godzillajoe replied to Random Terrain's topic in Atari 2600
Shit? Jizz? Some of you weirdos have psychological issues. Or are just morons. -

Well there is Spike's Peak, kinda, sorta. -

Someone should hack the 7800 Beef Drop to Pancake Stacker or Flackjack! Instead of fries as a bonus you have syrup and instead of pepper it's powdered sugar -

godzillajoe replied to Random Terrain's topic in Atari 2600
what is the criteria? otherwise the list is endless grocery shopping, getting a hair cut, shaving, vacuuming, mowing the lawn, watching TV..... -
I know my reply probably came across as dickish but it *mostly* wasn't meant that way. I *am* interested in hearing weird Atari related music but not a new thread for EVERY new piece. Besides when you reply to a thread it bubbles it up to the top, so if you're even half paying attention you know there's something new to check out in that thread. But by all means, keep on bleepin' and bloopin'!
