    Demons to Diamonds didn't make the cut, eh?  I like the clown and balloon games, and I like Carnival, but I think I'm pretty partial to DtD.  Not many shooting games from back then had targets you had to avoid shooting, plus a simultaneous opposing player.  Definitely one of the better games for the 2600.  The theme of being a far future midway game is neat.

     

    Who doesn't love old time-y amusements?  Tell you what, the first chance COVID rules allow it, I intend to go to every local carnival I get the chance to.

    Why I didn't think of that, I don't know! Love that game. Ever since I was little. Agree about the carnivals.

    This week we discuss games based on circuses and carnivals.  What are some of your memories from what has become a by-gone era?  Are there any games that I missed?  Let me know.  Thank you!!

    I had a similar setup about 20 + years ago.  You had the thing you plugged into the back of the PS1.  Then you had a small spring that you put under the lid to make the PS1 think the lid was always closed.  You would start it up with a regular PS1 game and then "open" the lid and put a copy game in there and close the lid again.  Is that how yours is set up?

    Couldn't have said it better. Remember a few years ago one if our great homebrew programers got tired of waiting for someone to release Anteater and then made that awesome homebrew Ardvaark? After that came out one guy on here said he didn't care if the original ever was released. Which I had to agree because Aardvark was a great game. I just wish I was good at it...

    This week we discuss advergames.  What is your opinion on using video games to sell a product?  Or do you think product placement in a game is better?

    Hello, all.  I am planning on doing a tribute video on my YouTube channel to Jerry Lawson and Edward Smith, two black video game programmers from back in the day.  I know this is something that I really frowned upon here, but I was wondering who has the rom for In Search of the Golden Skull?  I would like to use it for research purposes.  Even if you have some game footage, that would be great.  Please PM me if you would like to discuss this further.  Plus, if anyone has information on these two gentleman that you'd like to share, please let me know as I will credit you in both the video and the book.  Thank you!

    I hear what you're saying.  I just bought a DC from someone on here for a very reasonable price.  But then when I went to buy some games they were hella expensive!  There were only a few games I was really looking for but I'm not going to pay $50+ for a game. Not happening.

    I'm looking for a PS1 that has a MOD chip.  I know you can have them built in and the early model has a plug in the back to put one on.  Let me know if you have one you'd like to part with.  Thank you!

    I am interested in purchasing some games for the PS2.  I would prefer them to be playable (I've purchased some before and they didn't work!) and they don't need to have the manual or the case.  Here are some of the games I'm looking for:

    Wallace and Gromit (all)

    Harry Potter (all except Chamber of Secrets)

    The Man Game

    Manhunt (1&2)

    Simpsons (Hit & Run) and (Road Rage)

    Fire Pro Wrestling Returns

    Intellivision Lives

     

    That's all I can think of now.  Thanks for looking!

    Hello, all.  I am looking to purchase some games for the Sega Dreamcast.  Two games in particular I'm interested in are Crazy Taxi and Ready 2 Rumble Boxing, and some others.  They don't have to be complete, just the disc or whatnot.  Let me know.  Thank you!!

    In this edition of Anthony and Larry Play, we play Othello. What are some other board games that are best played in video game format?

    Correct. With the possible exception of Super Trolley, none of those games you mention were familiar to me, despite many having "big" names such as Dr. Ruth, Benny Hill, Charlie Chaplin etc.

     

    Like you wrote, there are oceans full of obscure games but I think you made a good selection digging out some that should have some sort of recognition.

    Thank you for your kind words. You being a computer game encyclopedia, can you give any recommendations?
