  1. Over the mountain, take me across the sky
    Something in my vision, something deep inside
    Where did I wander, where do you think I wandered to
    I've seen life's magic astral plane I travel through

  2. Hold onto your hat, hold onto your heart
    Ready, get set to tear this place apart
    Don't need a ticket, only place in town
    That'll take you up to heaven and never bring you down
    Anything goes anything goes

  3. Atari has been on a roll in 2023. Anniversary Celebration, 2600+ & GameStation Pro. How are they going to top that in 2024?!

      I don't know if they can, but if they can continue to support the hardware that they currently have, I would be happy with that.

      Not to say it's easy or anything,  but to top it?  (My idea)  Release an off the shelf true replacement for Atari 2600/7800,  with off the shelf + custom chips,  or an FPGA 2600 or 7800.  :)

      When we were teenagers, that was a staple in the car for, uh, well, you know. You'd light it up, hit it and hold it during the intro sfx build up, and then exhale when the guitar and music finally kick in. But that was many years ago. Haha

  8. I was playing the C64 version of H.E.R.O. recently. I appreciate the updated graphics, but I think I prefer the clean simplicity of the 2600 version more. Am I crazy?

      Montezuma's revenge is better in other version (Atari 8bit & Commodore 64) since they have more rooms to explore.

      The original H.E.R.O. released on the VCS was/is the best version. Graphics simple enough to let your imagine come along for the ride.

      _The Doctor__

      Game-play matters, clutter and eye-candy loses it's charm. The 2600 delivers a smooth crisp experience and let's your imagination do it's thing. A nice clean, simple graphics game that's easy on the eyes and enjoyable. H.E.R.O. on the 2600 is one of the best.

      True, it is a bit of bummer that summer is coming to a close.  But, that means that Fall is approaching which includes the return of sports like basketball and (especially) football, holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving, and cooler temperatures.

      Considering all of the other compilation titles that have come out on the Switch, seems like a no-brainer to me.

      Saw them in the early 2000s I think....pretty cool. Though the Jersey guy singing along to every song got annoying....

      Nice, thanks for the heads up!!  ELO had a release a decade or so ago that was pretty great (their more recent was a big dud), and so did the Cult.  Styx are / were much heavier than I think they get credit for.  Witch Wolf is some great headbangin' stuff :)

    4. SpiceWare

      SpiceWare

      Nice!  They need to put out a few more to catch up with Sparks, they released their 24th last year and are currently working on their 25th.  They released a new song with Todd Rundgren a couple months ago, he'd produced their first album 50 years ago.

      Madness is actually my favorite album, tho I know it only borders "classic" Maiden.

  17. In a Godsmack mood today. Been a while since I spun their tunes, but it's sounding great today ?

    1. Rogerpoco

      Rogerpoco

      I've got to be honest-(relatively metalhead here, with several weenie exceptions, and versatile musician...), I really didn't/don't care for them much, but saw them live in Charlotte, NC once(with Staind? I dunno. I drink a lot), and they were FANTASTIC, I knew more songs than I anticipated, and they really played well/put on a great show, I was highly impressed by the "band effort".

      I read that I dragged across the floor to comb my hair.  Eventually somehow made it into the kitchen to drink a cup of coffee(I believe).

      Have you looked into intermittent fasting? That and cutting back drinking (not being presumptive) might be of interest.  Best of luck!

      The timing of the arrival of the Wonder Twins is pretty suspicious.  Am I the only one who thinks they had something to do with Wendy & Marvin's disappearance from the SuperFriends?

    3. retrorussell

      I didn't miss Marvin and Wonderdog, but Wendy was kinda hot.  Gleek could burn in 7 layers of hell for all I care.
