Crackpots

[tz101]

Are there any fans of the game like myself. I have read some poor reviews of the game, but actually find it quite enjoyable.

 

My only reservation with Crackpots is that I firmly believe Activision should have made it paddle controller compatible.

Yeah, I like it. And I have thought many times that it should be a paddle game.

 

Of course, I've also thought it would be fun to have a paddle version of Space Invaders, more frantically paced than the original.

Crackpots? LOVE IT!!! Very intense action. I never thought about using paddles with it but that would be cool

Paddles would be perfect as it's essentially a "reverse Kaboom"

I love Crackpots... and yeah, a paddle version would be great.

Crackpots is a good game, but IMO, the lack of paddle support is the one thing that prevents it from being a great game.

Precisely why I would rather play Astroblast over SI any day of the week.

I absolutely love Crackpots... my highest score is over 500,000 and I average 200k or so.

Yep.I thought the same thing the 1st time i played Crackpots.It would be great to see how much better the game would be with paddles.I find this game friggin hard BTW.I find the game very awkward because of the stik control actually.It's still a pretty fun game besides that.

I don't have the game ... yet. But I've emulated it and it's pretty fun. As it's emulated, I haven't played with the joystick, but I imagine it WOULD be better with paddles.
