It's not a glitch. If I remember correctly, this safe spot is mentioned somewhere in the manual. I'm glad you mentioned that it can only be reached on a jump. A couple times I tried to run over to the left and got bumped off by the bear

great story, Miss2600!! You're a talented writer.

I second the notion of considering a new therapist (but I say this tentatively since its based on limited information). My wife and I have been to a few different relationship therapists over the years. The best ones see us together and help us to learn and practice communication skills that enable us to solve our problems together. I don't get the approach of seeing each of you separately and then giving advice. Also, I never heard of a therapist pushing for separation (except in cases of domestic violence). I also think that you should have a separate therapist for your own personal issues so you have ample time to focus on those issues, while the relatioinship counselor should focus on the interpersonal dynamics between you and your wife. This would also circumvent conflicts of interest that seem to pop up when you have the same therapist for both personal and relationship issues. In my personal experience, and I am a long-time consumer of mental health services, psychiatric drugs and psychotherapy are both necessary at times, but rarely sufficient to get me through the depression. I also rely on self-help materials and resources as an adjunct to the professional services. Particularly helpful for me are (1) the writings of Albert Ellis, founder of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and (2) Recovery Int'l self-help group meetings. Recovery meetings are based on the writings of Abraham Low (link: http://www.recovery-inc.com/). Sorry to hear that you're suffering, and that its serious enough to interfere with your enjoyment of gaming (when I'm in a downward spiral, that's the last pleasure to go, right after interest in sex!). Hope you get things sorted out and start feeling better soon!!

Wow!! Another great score on the keyboard!

Nice job. I'm horrible playing games with a keyboard. Yes, that's a very impressive score for playing on the keyboard!

Doctors prescribe stimulants (e.g. Ritalin, Adderall, etc.) for ADD/ADHD. So if your therapist believes that video games, etc. act as stimulants, perhaps she should be recommending them rather than shunning them. As with all things, moderation is the key. But sometimes we have to get to know the extremes before we can find the middle ground

I found the Flashback 2 joystyicks to be very fragile. Broke 2 in the same week My older cx-40's are much more durable.

Well, after 2 days of playing this game, the best I could muster thus far is 7,790. I'm just gonna assume nobody's going to demand photographic verification of this one.

Do you mean that you rolled it, but didn't get the picture? If that's the case, I don't think its a problem.

I believe that's correct. At least that's how i set my 7800 difficulty switches most recently.

You sure you have both switches on difficulty B?

Well, I decided to hook up my 7800 console. The reset button doesn't work, but that doesn't matter with this game since you can use the fire button to reset. Ready for some frenetic ghoul-bombing action..........

I didn't keep track of time when I rolled, but I estimated more like 2.5 hours. Maybe it was a little more, but not 3.5 hrs.

Does the second button work for the bomb on the Prosystem emulator? I tried reconfiguring it using Joystick to Keyboard program, but it didn't work

There's a thread on this forum (2600) entitled "Another Adventure". You can plug the title into the forum's search box, go thru the thread, and download the game to try it out. I'm not sure if the latest version is on there, but it would give you a good idea of what it's like. A pretty good hack, in my opinion.
