  1. STRANGE!! I downloaded it and am trying to fire it up with Stella and it won't do anything. All I get is a few yellow lines at the top. Any ideas?
  2. LOL :) Thanks for checkin on me! Still recovering from the tornado disaster but makin great headway! I shall be back to full speed soon so no need to call Cromwell's Ghost :) Hope all is well in Londononium!

  3. Ron Paul? To me he and Dennis Kucinich make more sense than any two people in Washington concerning foreign policy and Paul's domestic policy is very close to my own beliefs

  4. Cromell is STILL dead! :)

  5. Haven't had time to play it all the way thru but I like what I see ALWAYS ready for a new Adventure game. Wp
  6. I have always used Stella but have heard lots of good things of z26 in the old days. Wp
  7. So far the only release without the bars was a "sneak preview" Atari User did with the last issue. I'm not against releasing the full goods in the thread, if Al is good with it. I'll send him a PM and see what he says. Thanks much amigo I am REALLY diggin' the game. Played it seven times today so far lol Wp
  8. Is a ROM available without the tasteful bars? Wp
  9. I remember thinking the Atari was outdated in 1985 and lending my console and games to a neighbors kid......and NOW I am playing new 2600 games like Halo 2600 in the year 2011! Wp
  10. Atari 2600 Asteroids Arcade 80 minutes Official Frogger 30 minutes Missile Command 10 minutes Ms. Pac Man 25 minutes Reindeer Rescue 40 minutes Toyshop Trouble 30 minutes
  11. Been getting my Asteroids fix by playing these two games on Stella. Meteoroids is an earlier version of Suicide Mission and a good Asteroids vector clone and Asteroids Arcade is a hack of Asteroids with many changes to make it more like the arcade version including vector like graphics. Of the two I think I will have to say I like Asteroids Arcade the best because in Meteoroids the UFO does not shoot it just sort of flies by and looks at ya. Which of the two do U prefer? I highly suggest both games. Wp
  12. Try out an emulator to see how u like the 2600 and browse around trying out some of the new homebrew games for the system as well as the classics. www.stella.sourceforge.net in my opinion is the best emulator available. Wp
  13. I will jump in The games I have played today Atari 2600 Cat Trax 25 minutes Pleaides 15 minutes Reindeer Rescue 15 minutes Official Frogger 30 minutes Adventure 15 minutes River Raid Returns (Neo) 15 minutes Arcade Pac-Man 10 minutes Donkey Kong 5 minutes
  14. Playing 2600 Pleidias and Adventure and eating GREENS, JOWL, PEAS and CORNBREAD!! Happy New Year!
  15. Well, I'm a bit bummed I didn't get that 1st post. I had it queued up too, but I guarantee the missus wouldn't have taken kindly being told to "wait a second - I have to go make a post". I sacrificed for the greater good Crap!!! I missed it too and I am the Thread Bump Champ of 2007! I had hoped for comeback this year...oh well. Heres to Team Savage and the AA community Wp
  16. Let me suggest FONZ as your first game. Wp
  17. Let me clarify myself. When I say I have "switched totally to emulation" I mean for the Atari 2600 only. I assumed since this thread was in the VCS section that is what it meant. For other consoles I still use the real hardware but for Atari I use the Stella because I dig it and its right here on my desktop and I can play it anytime and I get to playtest new games in development. Wp
  18. Its like a Christmas version of Zombie Chase Love it and thank U. Wp
  19. No and no serious gamer ever would. Not true at all. Absolutely not true. I consider myself not only a serious gamer but a member of Generation X, The Vanguard of Videogamers and I have played from Pong on up.....I dig my Stella and Emulation in general. Wp
  20. I wish someone would make a Christmas Game for the VCS where U play the Three Wise Men and you have to fight off desert rogues, Roman Authorities and Demons and get the Frankincense and Myhrr etc to take to Baby Jesus. Each of the wise men could count as a life in the game and it would be a good companion to Red Sea Crossing. Wp
  21. Over a year of being Emulation Only for my 2600 gaming! My Vader is nestled safely in my bedroom closet while Stella does ALL the work Wp
  22. Belated THANKS!! Just now got to download it for Stella and this is a HARD game but a fine Christmas gaming experience. Wp
  23. This thread reminded me of Reindeer Rescue so I have been playing it with my daughter Great game. Wp
