  1. So many interesting topics in one thread. Read and loved every comment. My thoughts:

    I am more into retro gaming than ever before mostly due to AtariAge with the HSCs, Activision Patch Quest, market place, and so many helpful members.

    I love the plug and plays. Have a couple of Atari flashbacks, Atari paddle plug and play and Just got the NES mini.

    Love the YouTube videos every time I get a new 2600 I like to watch a video for two minutes to help get me started. Glad folks can make money doing them.

    Metallica, though Load is my 8th favorite, I still think it is really good. And for those who havent heard the last two, you should, both great.

  3. I'm surprised you didn't get Keystone Kapers. That was the first game I ever maxed out. One time I decided to play it to see if it got any faster after a certain point. It didn't and I ended up going to 1 million.

    I am not even close to s patch yet in keystone Kapers. I need 35000 and my high is 18500 or so. A million in keystone is amazing. I am close in hockey and barnstormers. Not close in kaboom. Tried all four again this morning and will continue to try later as today is last day.

    You didn't play River Raid 2 much during the regular season, but you started out with a solid score here in the bronze medal round. I thought for sure you were going to pick away at it like you did with Battlezone. Not enough time to play and practice perhaps?

    Its a shame you beat me by only 107,000 in river Raid two. As you thought I did try hard the last two days but only got up to 8,000 or so. If I was still in it I could have won this round ad I like these games. Good luck to you both.
