Battlezone's short opening tune is from Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.

It's "eludes", not "alludes".

Yes Jin, very comprehensive thx!

I use my 7800 or Colecovision with Atari adapter with real carts if I have that game; if not, I have the PS2 Atari & Activision Anthologies. Also have both Nintendo DS Atari collections.
For last season's Oystron I used the GBA Activision Anthology. If I don't have the game onhand, I dont play that week.

I'm curious as to who's using what hardware, & if game systems' Atari discs (PS2, XBOX, etc) are ok?

We have relied on the honor system before.However Im the last one to promote it, as I was involved in a scandal last season, by posting a score I had used 3 years prior.
I admitted my wrongdoing & now provide pics with my scores.

I've told my story before but I wont pass up a chance to tell it again! It's also on ferg's 2600 Game By Game podcast, the Laser Blast episode (you'll see why shortly).
I had Seaquest & really liked its patch. After several attempts to reach the proper score and get a photo of the screen, I was finally able to send Activision a photo where the necessary score (40,000?) was barely discernable.
I waited for weeks, & got the correct form letter...but the WRONG patch. This was a small rectangle, bordered in orange, with "1,000,000" on it, surrounded by exclamation marks. There wasn't any indication what game this was for, but I knew I didnt own it; it wasnt in any of my Activision manuals, plus I was pissed they didnt send the correct one. I tossed it aside in disgust & lost track of it. I didnt care.
Years later I learned it was for excelling at Laser Blast, playing for an extended time to reach a million. & I found out people didnt get the patch because they'd set the controller down in fatigue & bump the button, starting a new game & missing the chance for a photo.
This patch also later commanded a hefty sum due to the strenuous conditions players underwent to achieve it.

Someone suggested Adventure. I've always wondered what kind of metric you would use for competition in Adventure. After all, you either win the game or you don't.
Timed, from the second you hit reset until the fireworks start.

Actually my English teacher wife says "you-know-who" is correct. It's never "you-know-whom".

I'm like that with teasing/picking on ppl. The more I like you, the more I do it, unless I can clearly see you can't handle it.
If I don't like someone, I won't talk to them AT ALL.

I perfect scored it on GBA Activision Anthology

Ahhh, that explains it. I suspected as much.

Is it me, or does Super Podcast Brothers have the most unintelligible opening theme song of all?
Ferg, you do know the XE lightgun works on the 7800, right? It works across 3 Atari systems: 2600, 7800, & 8-bits.

Was that restaurant crowd noise real or fake?
Sounds like they were exceeding the fire code that day.
