Lauren Tyler Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Here's my requests for games that I don't think have been played for at least 3 seasons, though I might miss one or two here and there: Sentinel (Light gun game) Unless there's a way to emulate the light gun in Stella (or some other Atari 2600 emulator,) I don't think it would be fair to choose Sentinel because not many people own the XE Light Gun, and I've heard it's pretty hard to find. Not to mention Sentinel isn't exactly very common either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention Sentinel isn't exactly very common either. Yeah, I know. I never expected it to get picked, I'm just always looking for reason to break out my light gun. The same goes for trackball hacked games (Millipede TB, Centipede TB, Missile Command TB, etc). I'd love to play them in the HSC but I don't think enough people own CX-22 or CX-80 trackballs to make them viable game options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy B. Coyote Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Alright, now that I've got a Harmony cart again and tried out a new game hack I've got just one more game to add to my requests list and this one is definitely my #1 pick for the season: River Raid 3 Game 16. This just surpassed Lead as my all time favorite shoot 'em up on the Atari 2600 and I'd love to try playing it in the High Score Club.

DarQ Massacres Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 barnstorming, boing, fire fly (1 life challenge), seaquest, asteroids, mystique game week? and the one I think I want to most would be a 10 rarity double week, pick some 10 rarity games and have them, odds are most people here haven't played them before. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+KaeruYojimbo Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) Most of the rarity 10 games (according to the AA database) aren't unique games. A good chunk of them are re-releases of easier to find games, hardware like the Copy Cart or ECPC cartridge, not really games like MagicCard or Video Life or hacks of other games like Asterix. That leaves you with: Air Raid - Played in HSC Atlantis II - Technically a hack, but a difficulty hack so I kept it in. Played in HSC. Birthday Mania - Only one copy known to exist. No ROM available. Eli's Ladder - Educational game Gamma Attack - Never played in HSC Gauntlet - Never played in HSC Mangia - Played in HSC The Music Machine - Never played in HSC There are some more recent discoveries that should be 10's but aren't in the AA database, like The Extraterrestrials (2 player only) and Red Sea Crossing.

MrBeefy Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I think I'm going to try and do this might make me play more/discover more games. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarian7 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) I think I'm going to try and do this might make me play more/discover more games. I found some good games I would have never tried if not for the HSC. My favorite finds are Hunchy 2, Lead, Gorf, Lady Bug, and some more I don't remember off the top of my head.

LidLikesIntellivision Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 (edited) I'm ashamed to list all the games I didn't know before joining HSC. But Tunnel Runner was the best least known game for me. I didn't know pressure cooker, a great game, but I must be in the minority regarding this Activision game.

agb Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Last season was the first time I played Seaquest, Encounter at L5, Popeyes, Skiing and Cruuse Missile. All a lot of fun in particular Seaquest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly I'm kinda terrible at it, but I still think it's tons of fun to play and it has some pretty impressive graphics as far as 2600 games go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant the minority of Atari players who didn't know Pressure Cooker. Since it's an Activision game I suppose it was very known. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremiahK Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) I am totally gonna do this. There are so many games, some of which I even own, that I haven't tried before. I don't know if it's already been suggested, but I would love to play Demon Attack. Edited January 2, 2018 by JeremiahK 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
