    Enduro is the best racing game ever made for any system. There. I said it.

      Endure might be the best racing game on the 2600 but definitely not the best ever made, you know, what with modern sims like Assetto Corsa and BeamNG.Drive being a thing.

      It's definitely in my top 5 racing games of all time, and in my top 10 2600 games.  I might give Metropolis Street Racer and Outrun the edge, but Enduro is a mighty fun game.

      For the 2600 I remember it was amazing and unparalleled when it came out.  And the change of weather and road conditions, amazing.

    Rainy evenings are Mother Nature's way of saying "go downstairs, plug in that old Atari, and play some Wizard of Wor Arcade!"

      I have a few more started. Just need to spend a little more time playing them before I submit them. Tough job!

    One grows tired of jelly babies, Castelan.

      One grows tired of almost everything, Castellan, except power.

    Watching 1966’s Tarzan and the Valley of Gold. Tarzan meets 007. It’s really not as bad as it sounds.

    Heading to the Midwest Gaming Classic. Gonna hang out at the arcade for a spell.

    In honor of this week's final commercial 747 flight I will be viewing Airport '77.

      Original 747? They must be running the newer ones still..

      Kind of a blur but I'm pretty sure I saw Airport '77 in the theater as a kid.

      Useless trivia: the actress who played Jessica in the movie (Jenny Agutter) has been in The Avengers and Captain America: The Winter Soldier as a member of the World Council.

      "The Land that Time Forgot"! It seems that you couldn't make an Edgar Rice Burroughs adaptation in the 1970s without casting Doug McClure.

      Winner, winner, Mahar dinner!

    3. DaveD

      Agreed. I finally tracked down an NTSC Warlords of Atlantis and rewatched that recently. Fun stuff. Hadn't seen that since the drive-in in 1978.

       

  12. DaveD

    Star Blazers or Battle of the Planets? I think I lean towards BOTP. Even 7-Zark-7 can't ruin that for me.

      The Macross arc is ok. The other 2 are terrible. Love SB & BotP pretty much equal. http://atariage.com/hack_page.php?SystemID=2600&SoftwareHackID=282

      No way was the New generation storyline terrible! Imo was better than the original Mospeada. The Masters story sucked and wasn't as good as the original Southern Cross,but overall Robotech was still a great series. StarBlazers is ok,but no way is it as good as the original Yamato.

    4. s0c7

      s0c7

      To each their own. Yamato did have a better live-action film than Gatchaman.

    Wife’s out of town so I have the TV to myself tonight. Buck Rogers, Red Dwarf, Atragon or The Mysterians? Decisions, decisions.

      This is a pretty decent double episode. It was before they took their budget away.

    Newly announced Microsoft Surface Studio PC looks pretty sweet to this longtime Mac user. Given Apple has pretty much given up on the creative pros these days...

      Apple is marketing to mass consumptionist. Not professionals anymore.

      As long as we're fantasizing, I'd like to see a new MacMini with upgradable RAM, and user-replaceable dual SSD drives. And a pro video card option. Basically, a MacMini Pro.

      Remember when Apple products "just worked"? I hate doing tech support just because WiFi or iCloud doesn't work like they're suppose to...

    New MAME/Arcade challenge starts this week! http://atariage.com/forums/topic/256443-arcademame-hsc-91-moguchan/

    I've not been into modern games since early PS2 days. But No Man's Sky has me seriously intrigued. Seriously.

      Hey I Too Dug Aquanauts Holiday and Tail of the Sun!...I thought I was the only one haha...BITD The guys at the game store did Not seem to agree...

      Hope it does well, despite the faults. It's rare for a small team to create something this big.

      Flojomojo

      I'm glad you brought up Aquanaut's Holiday and Tail of the Sun -- this has the same kind of vibe (and unfortunately, a similar lack of polish -- it is very crashy for a console game)

      My favorite is Wawa, which has touch screens for ordering. No human contact required.

      Am I the only one who pays people to deal with yard work?

    3. DaveD

      No. Grass cutting is typically a good time to listen to music though so I don't mind it. Cleaning gutters? Homey don't play that.

      Watching Samurai Jack and they worked a Space Ace joke into dialog mentioning a "dragon's lair."

  23. DaveD

    "Where does the other lead?"

  24. DaveD

    "Take the stony path at the fork in the road to the dragon's lair."

    PS2 Pinball Hall of Fame: Williams Collection rocks! Those Wizard table goals are killer though.

    1. Cobra Kai

      Cobra Kai

      Thing is the ps2 version is extremely easy. Get the x360 game for a better challenge and more tables and better physics

    2. DaveD

      DaveD

      Scoring 4 million+ on Space Shuttle, one of the wizard table goals to unlock extras, is definitely NOT easy.

       

      Even getting 550,000 on Gorgar is tough. Both great tables though.
