Cousin Vinnie Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 (edited) This weekend, the good guys at Atari 7800 Forever churned out 4 reviews of classic 7800 games for your butts... We found a great one, a good one, and a couple of stinkers. Find out what we thought of Water Ski, Super Pac Man, Tank Command and Pac Man Collection on the Atari 7800 Mothership! We have 15 more full reviews to bring over and tweak from the old website before we have the original line up complete. I can't wait to get those done so I can start focusing on weird games that no one has ever heard of like Poetiru and making unique articles about the little Prosystem that could. www.atari7800forever.com Edited July 19, 2021 by Cousin Vinnie 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jeremiahjt Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Let me guess without looking at the reviews. Tank Command was the great one, Water Ski was the good one, and the two stinkers were the Pac-Man games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giles N Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 @Cousin Vinnie I find Water Ski just so incredibly difficult… I’m like nowhere… Have you gotten through it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way. I told someone today (who claims to have beaten it) that if I had the game when I was 10-12 years old back in the day, I probably would have beaten it just to see the end. Getting this game in my early 30s and playing it at this age, I couldnt sit still for the 2 days of memorization it would take to beat it. I can live without the win. I just beat Millie and Mollie... so Im a still a stud. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fantastic game that I thoroughly enjoy playing. For those interested in the Water Ski torture challenge.. Maps! Of course, Tank Command awaits as well: 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually get to stage 2, then its gets really hard. I use gun-power 2 as standard. Not among my top/favourite games, but it has elements combining action and strategy that I like, and its a pity its so rare and costly on ebay etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie did a review a little while ago now so I provided him with a copy. http://www.atari7800forever.com/millieandmollyr.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
