    I just copied and pasted this quote from another post i replied to. It is my quote, though lol, I just think it would go better here.

     

    I'm tired of people saying "E.T. is the worst game ever made!" And "E.T. caused the video game crash!" Neither of those statements can be considered a fact whatsoever as some people claim they are. First, the worst game ever made does not exist, as it is merely personal opinions that would rate that. I think it's not nearly as bad, and can name MANY games I personally find far worse (Firefly, Haunted House, etc.) but that is just my opinion. Secondly, is is impossible that one game would have caused the entire crash of the early 80s. It was a mixture of MANY different cheap and terrible titles released in bulk for nothing else but making profit. There were no rules or standards in the industry yet, and it was bound to happen at the rate things were going.

    I have a problem with my 5200 trak ball I just bought and was wondering if anyone had any advice. The fire buttons work on it, but the ball it self will only make the cursor jiggle when trying to play Centipede or Missile Command. Anyone know if I can fix it?

    Thanks! I just love this forum because it gives me an opportunity to meet and talk with fellow people who truly appreciate and respect retro gaming. The more I come here, it seems like the more I want to post and talk about. Also Keatah, there are so many posts on the forum that posts are bound to come up here and there, but they always have different results. If you couldn't ask a question or talk about something, there would be nothing to talk about! Lol Thanks again y'all!

    Well for future reference it is no more "work" than starting a thread and replying here. The search came up with that result instantly. ;)

    Either way, I would want updated replies. That post was from a while back, and I'm sure there are new people on here who never had a chance to reply.
