Zach #1 Posted August 25, 2002 Hello Everybody, I have recently discovered the Atariage forum, and am impressed by the community. My first console was a 2600, with Combat and Pac-Man as my first games. I have four cartridges that have survived from my childhood: Pac-Man, Space Invaders, E.T., and the Sears Yar's Revenge. I picked up a real 2600 last summer after attending CGE 2001, and my collection has been growing ever since. I'll be contributing to the community more. By the way, has anyone else noticed that when your frog is killed in Parker Brothers Frogger, it turns into the X-Box logo? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tiggerthehun #3 Posted August 25, 2002 Welcome - this, indeed, is a great place to whittle away the hours. Be kind, be witty, don't spam, and don't harrass the AtariAge Gals! You'll figure out the rest as you go along... (well, actually, there isn't much else to figure out!) Nice X-box reference btw... the only thing I can figure is that the Frogger cart is some sort of prophetic device, sent to us from God - for us to decipher... "Will 'Frogger' unveil any more future events?" *shakes 8-ball* "Probably Not* Ah well... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NE146 #4 Posted August 25, 2002 By the way, has anyone else noticed that when your frog is killed in Parker Brothers Frogger, it turns into the X-Box logo? Welcome! and yes it does indeed turn into an X. Funny how when it came out and won "Best arcade to home translation" the screenshot they showed had poor old Frogger in that exact state...

tiggerthehun #5 Posted August 25, 2002 ne146 - where'd you get that pic from? And where can I find more? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NE146 #6 Posted August 25, 2002 That's just from one an issue of Electronic Games.. circa 1983 or so. I got lots of classic mags (all beat up to shit though) which I do scan from time to time. I can scan more from that feature if you want.. (Demon Attack wins Game of the Year) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
