Csonicgo Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 That was great. Well, I learned something today- don't piss off an Atari 2600. you will pay. ok, I'm gonna put my joysticks in a steel safe now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I love how the PS2 is like the king of the playground until the Atari comes slinking out of the closet. Brilliant! I am not a big fan of their music, but these guys seem cool. (I am also in awe of any bass player with more strings than me.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE146 Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 That was sweet, anyone have a link to download that movie instead of watching it online everytime? Sure. Just use ASFRECORDER.EXE. It'll capture the stream for you and save it on your harddrive. http://ftp.pcworld.com/pub/new/graphics_an...ASFRecorder.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 The once and future kings return with a revenge. I hope it was Yar's Revenge. Makes more sense to since the Atari 2600 is getting revenge on the newer systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killersquirel Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 I am not a big fan of their music, but these guys seem cool. (I am also in awe of any bass player with more strings than me.) Personally I don't like this band, but it is cool that they used the atari vcs for there video. As for having more strings on a bass, it's not needed. He is using a six string so there is only 8 more notes (4 lower, and 4 higher) than a normal bass. Considering that the 4 higher notes are played way up on the fretboard they are kind of useless. Do like Mark Sandman of Morphine did and take strings away. He used a 2 string bass with a slide and had unbelievable basslines. I'm going to stop talking about music now and be happy that the atari beat the horrible ps2 (I have been telling people this for years) -mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mos6507 Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Wow, next time someone asks you why you bother reminiscing about the 2600 pass them a link to this. There is no doubt now that the 2600 is a permanent pop culture icon. I really don't think we're going to see a sliding scale of pop cultural references like these for newer units as generations age (i.e. a PS2 destroy a PS10 20 years from now). I think the VCS has a unique place in pop culture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindog Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Yeah, that's definitely Missile Command. (flipped and gamma corrected in the gimp....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Monkey Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Yeah, that's definitely Missile Command. <img src="http://www.kudla.org/atariantfarmcompare.png"> (flipped and gamma corrected in the gimp....) On closer inspection I think it might be "Whistle Command"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
