    Before we get too far into this thang, I was wanting opinions to help make the HSC better and to make sure everyone has a fair chance.

     

    The Atari 2600 HSC can go forever, but we have a severe disability due to the fact that we have only about 40 or so playable games. Here is what I came up with for a game pool....meaning all of these games will be played at least once to decide the HSC winner (for the online beer). I need to know if these any of games are too rare to obtain and unplayable on an emulator. I also need to know if an elimintated game should be included and why.

     

    Played Games: Tower Toppler, Ninja Golf, Mario Brothers, Ms. Pac-Man, Robotron, Choplifter!

    If you get 64, you will be treated to a SPECIAL ENDING!!!

     

    Yeah, it blinks congratulations.

     

    Here is a tip, and how I got 64:

     

    When you see a tank approaching and people be running about, get the heck up and fly away from the tank. Get kinda far from it (like 3 seconds of flying time) and when you go back to the running fools, it will not be there. Then you get like 6-8 seconds of peace.

     

    I can't believe I got it either. But I did :)

    I like the Proline sticks, def my favorite controller of the old systems.

     

    And no, there is no give away on the box to inform you whether or not you have a red end label for Ballblazer. You must open it up to see it.
