Anyone up to a 'killer' Mr Robot challenge

I made some wicked Mr Robot lvls - only 1 person has finished them all after playing for 3 weeks

Kangaroo for the 8bit is the same as the released one for the 5200 so its fair to compare As for Food Fight, whats everyones beef with that one?

Kangaroo was 'ok' playability wise, but the graphics and movement were just not up to par

Fighting games kinda suck on the 8bit - Dev stopped just as these type games came into the spotlight. Some later releases are pretty good but otherwise the 8bit is missing this genere.

Food Fight is great - esp compared to the arcade! Atari didnt put it out but Congo Bongo has got to be the worst - It is the worst Arcade Port I can tell you that. As for worst Atari cart - I would vote for Kangaroo - blah graphics and gameplay.

Folks, I have a Diamond OS 2.0 cart and was wondering if anyone knew how to configure a large drive with this running MyDOS. There are some large ATR files out there I would like to see if I could use through Diamond but the 'install drive' option doesnt give me very many options - in fact it appears that it only suppports SD and DD?

I think it needs to keyboard - not 100% sure, but I believe so

I had a telestar arcade before getting my 2600 - It was really fun and I actually ordered a few of the xtra 'triangle' carts to play - The light gun worked pretty good but the steering controler was the best! I never did get good at the racing game that came with it but it got alot of use! Wish I could still find that thing

Ok, Ive gotten success - turns out one of my drives isnt compatible with the MyIDE interface. This is REALLY COOL and cant wait to load it up. My biggest confusion was using MyDOS since I never used it and didnt understand the 'O' option (combined with the fact that my drive didnt work properly!) Anyhow, Ive got a 16 meg partition setup and plan to play around more. I understand the 'image load' theory but not exactly how to use the 'joystick' interface for this - any help with that appreciated! If you can grab one of these I would suggest doing so! I am going to see if my Diamond OS cart will work with this - now that would be great! A 'mini-st'

Ok, Due to some dumbness on my part I figured out how to get my HD connected to teh MyIDE cart - the drive is recognized and I was able to partition a drive. Now the hard part - I cannot figure out how to format the drive through the instructions provided........ I also dont understand the 'iamge load' option which appears to try and mimic a floppy drive with a HD partition (I think) I want to create a 16 meg partition from which I can load games onto. The guide indicates I should create a partition of 65535 sectors with 'hi' density (256 byte sectors). I did this and the partition was created succesfully. However it appears I need to 'configure' my drive in MyDOS inorder to format this partition (it appears and when I do a dir on it garbage comes up) - No matter what I do I cannot seem to be able to format the drive. Also, The image load thing confuses me (hold down START+RESET) and then have some joystick interface to load images?? Do I need to make my partitions 720 sectors with 'lo' or 128 byte sectors for these 'images'? Im a bit confused getting the drive properly setup so any advice appreciated.

Cupcakus, My prayers are with you and your family.............. I look forward to purchasing your cart should you decide to release it.

Not their department - hell, their stores are like 10x10 boxes, how many departments can they have!

For the time it came out I enjoyed the HS cart and also the HS CD. Then again I also enjoyed White Fox when it came out on the ST (talk about your low FPS tank game!)

I think the FMV scenes were removed from the cart version and thats it???

Gorf - after breaking 100K i dont want to touch this one again! Basic Programming Othello Chess - why? Checkers - again why? Demons to Diamonds Lost Luggage Bachelor Party Porky's Whatever fighting game that is supposed to come out and only release 10 copies Thats the list!

Got my 8bit BBSB for $70

Not in any order: Adventure Missile Command Turmoil Dragonfire Maze Craze Ms Pac Man Pitfall Chopper Command Wizard of Wor Spider Man These are the games that I spent many moons playing.

Where are you located?

Turns out the HD I got doesnt work with MyIDE - Drive #2 should be here shortly!

I enjoyed playing these on the Atari ST line - was the 8bit implementation any good? I always wondered how the speed/graphics were?

and no bids - is this really worth $140!

Doubtful since the game is very long and gets progressively harder - kinda like a walkthrough for Ultima IV - it can tell you what to do but there are so many things in order to do it the walkthrough is of minial benefit

As for the girl theory - the mile high club comes to mind as a plus for the jet
