As you know this season is quickly coming to an end. We will take a week break and start the new season on Monday, January 11, 2010. This will give me time to try and get everything for this season finalized. (Fingers crossed!) I am sorry I haven't been nearly as productive this season as last, but hopefully as Melody gets a little older she won't need near as much attention, and I can focus better. Thanks again for your continued support, and your patience.
Oh... almost forgot... please list your game suggestions in this thread!!!

Is the Tempest Xtreem Playable Demo suitable for a future round of our 8 bit HSC?
If so, it would be cool if we would play it.

I don't know... I didn't think that the demo went very far. We will have to see. Maybe I can talk to Sal about it.

Apparently some of my addition was off a bit... so I have made the corrections and hopefully everything is accurate. If anyone has a correction that I missed or a question... feel free to let me know and I will do the research and get it corrected as soon as possible! Thanks again for your continued dedication and patience!!

Tapper was released in the UK by US Gold in 1985.<br/><br/>
The link points to Rubber ball game
And Tapper from Atarimania has different menu screen (see below) than on the screens posted here, hopefully not changed scoring?Oops....fixed....and looks like folks are using the Sega 1984 version instead..so use that one instead. Link will be updated toreflect this.
-
Sounds fine....whatever you guys want to do!

-
Sorry... always start on the default level...which I am assuming is beginner. I don't know anything about this game. Start on beginner... or if you want to start on a higher level, feel free to.

I will get this updated tomorrow to reflect the last 3 games. I think we finally have a more predictable schedule now.

The poll is automatically locked at the end of the voting period whether there is a tie or not. Since I haven't voted... I will break the tie.
Keystone Kapers is what will be played this coming session. (Only because it was it's last chance to be picked.) I will get everything updated as time allows. Having a newborn leaves little time for sleep, much less anything else!
