  1. altered beast is a classic and so is golden axe. r type is an excellent shooter on this platform. my fave sms game is wonderboy in monsterworld
  2. most of young impulse buying collectors were to young to have experienced atari so they get into it by bying the collection disks or jakks joysticks and are quiclky bored by the primitive graphics and simple gameplay so it was a fad for some but as a hobby it will never go away due to the millions who do have fond atari memories of their childhoods. its just like people who are into volkswagen bettles . they will shell top dollar for ancient cars with low power and no A/C. its very much driven by nostalgia and for the love
  3. i agree that a good ending gives you a feeling of triumph and that if the game was good you will play it over and over again. that happened to me with Mafia and Hidden & Dangerous and on console with resident evil; codename veronica but lately i have noticed thas specially for pc games, story and ending are not as important and that the single player portion of the game is just filler for the multiplay capabilities , some like battlefield 1942 dont bother with story at all , they just put a bunch of missions together with no ending
  4. i would like to get an xbox just to play futurama not because its a great game but because im a diehard fan of the show
  5. i really liked the first gta on the ps1. as far as the clones . i really enjoyed Mafia on the PC id IMHO it could have been a true GTA series killer but the constant bugs, no multiplayer, and no mod support quickly earned it a place on the bargain bin . what a shame
  6. i dont mind doing surveys and stuff but it does seem like these ebayers are selling you free information . still its like buttermilk; they sell it , someone must be buying it
  7. thats the evil ting . alot of these vendors have all positive feedback . if it wan nothing but negative it would be easy to dismiss
  8. some cities have all the luck . trifting i houston really blows
  9. thats like a 150 mile drive for me , but its definitedly tempting
  10. i bougth the space invaders stick . i wanst impressed . lots of missing sounds and not very good framerates specially in KIX. i returned mine to wallyworld promptly . the miss pacman from jakks is way better , specially pole position with te twist controll
  11. i am getting one as soon as it comes out . its great thet atari is making some kind of hardware again even if the jakks atari stick did have the fuji logo on it
  12. all i have found is diferent versions . in one you have to take part in a bunch of surveys. in another one you have to buy a certain amount of products from a catalog a la columbia house . there migth be others
  13. piramid scheme eh. makes sense . cant even buy a broken XBOX for under $70 . isnt Ebay suposed to be against these activities?
  14. i have been seeng these auctions on ebay where you get sold "information" on how to get an xbox for $20. it s hard to believe this offer . has anyone actually gotten an XBOX this way or is it jus a scam.
  15. DROOOL!!!! that has got to be the ultimate kind of thrift find. your very owwn arcade machine . and shinobi is one of my all time favorites.
  16. PSX faves: Bushido Blade 2(the only figthing game i was good at) colony wars vengance G police grand theft auto
  17. all i have found in mine is roach fossils and the ocassional piece of Qtip and cotton on the game connector likely caused by failed attempts to clean the contacts
  18. i havent played my 7800 for a while . i have been playing Burgertime on the NES off and on. allso havent picked up the jakks miss pacman in a while . to many things to do
  19. i really liked the miss pacman but was dissapointed with the space invaders one . i returned it promptly
  20. flashback I and II , no one lives forever 2 , mafia, and operation flashpoint ressistance.
  21. i just got the space invaders stick myself. the graphics on Phoenix look diferent from the arcade version and the Qix inQix moves to fast like it was skiping animation framerates . i also would have liked a pause feature . i feel jakks did a better job than radica with the miss pacman. im considering returning this stick
  22. first system i had was some pong variant . i believe it was an emerson .
  23. i make it a point to let kids finish my games when im at the laundrette. im usually playing burgertime and these kids always seem to go there at the same time im washing my clothes.
  24. start by playing food figth that is one tof the top 7800 games , my favorite
