+sramirez2008 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Mines of Minos. A very challenging game...but I suck at it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-type Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I'm currently playing Raiders of the Lost Ark. I managed to get all the items I needed to get to the ark, but I missed the cave entrance as I was parachuting down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-type Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Just beat Raiders! Cool game, although I don't know how anyone would ever figure it out without a tip sheet/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbeliever Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 More Stargate and more Berzerk seem to be the games of choice right now on my Atari 2600. I can't seem to get enough Stargate...great game and they certainly made up for Defender, which I still love and play from time to time.

Cambouis de l'Atari Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 My latest buy : Towering Inferno. Obviously a ntsc cart, but nothing really noticeable. I liked the box and the two views of the building (outside and inside). Quite an addicting game ! But... why... oh why, using the joystick 2 ??

+SpiceWare Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 That is not fair LOL I'm somewhat involved in the project - besides that I've been providing ongoing support such as ways to improve to the flicker logic. I think John plans to start posting ROMs in Homebrew Discussion sometime in November for additional play testing, so keep an eye out in that forum. I think it's time to play Scramble! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unicyclesuck1992 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I'm stuck on midnight magic and video pinball right now, I just can't seem to get into any of my other games at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbeliever Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Gone back to playing some Asteroids on the 2600, game 10 again...as it has shields and diagonal asteroids. Difficulty A...good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micheloni2600 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Got some carts in the other day from the mail. Have absolutely been loving Pressure Cooker and Plaque attack!

AtarinDave Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Atari + Nintendo + Sega = AWESOME!!! I've been playing Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. on the 2600 with a Sega Genesis controller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Galactopus. I beat him 3 times, before dying and watching him devour my cities. Star Castle Arcade. I've owned it for over a week but only today did I really sit down and try to actually get good at it. This is one majorly tough game. Trying to fly in a straight line while shooting in another direction, all the while avoiding enemy shots. I never lasted long on the coin-op either, back in the day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one is insane and ramps up in difficulty very fast, but still people have managed to master it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24Fanatic365 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) Donkey Kong VCS homebrew, Star Voyager and Spider Fighter have been my post-Thanksgiving games of choice. I just downloaded the rom for this one, and I'm quite impressed. It will never cease to amaze me what the "graphically challenged" 2600 is truly capable of.

BladeOfOsiris Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I've been playing SwordQuest Waterworld on the Flashback 6. Best in the series I think. I don't even consider Fireworld and Earthworld videogames. I just picked up Mr.Do and Burgertime so I'll try to get a decent score on those soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
