Do you play everyday?

Recommended Posts

Im baaaackkkk! Hello again everyone! I was just thinking about the slogan, and do you play everyday? If so what game(s) do you play daily? Just thought it would make a good question, and I wanted to know anyway. Thanks :D

I usually spend about a half hour or so playing every couple or three days. I play longer when I'm playing through a game like Willow or Gran Turismo 4.

As for system, well, I just pick a game and plug it into the correct console, be it anything from Video Computer System to PlayStation 2.

I usually play every other day or so, I just have too much to do to be able to play games every day. I usually play the current game for the HSC, Quadrun, or if I have a lot of time to kill, keep attempting to max out Crackpots.

Sometimes, if I'm in the mood I will. Other times, espcially when work gets busy, I will not play for months. Right now, it's Xenphobe, Go Fish, and Galaxian, off and on.

Same here, just played 2600 Asteroids on the Atari 80 games CD-ROM last week. That was the only Atari I played this month. I might play some more this weekend.

Just about, sometimes I'm too lazy to hook it up. (I still haven't picked up the piece where you don't have to disconnect your cable to play Atari)

Excuses, excuses - you have to get your priorities straight here! :twisted:

 

Me, I play every other day, maybe every three or so days.

I used to play EVERYDAY and NIGHT when I was a kid back in 81-82 for like 5-6 hrs at a time!.Now I enjoy reading about classic gaming and collecting the games and consoles more than playing them.

Get 1 million on Quadrun yet?

 

According to DP, the Quadrun champ from back in the day hit over 800K, but didn't reach I million.

 

My 295K score should be getting posted by TG soon, so you better get crackin! :D

A few weeks ago I bought a video beamer and since then I have been playing nearly everday day for one or two hours. It's just so cool with the BIG screen. :cool:

But with family I also only have time in the evening - if I'd were a teenager again I would surely play several hours a day!

 

My favourite games at the moment are Tempest 2k (Jag of course) and Rez on the Dreamcast - these two sure rock in a darkended room with a picture as big as your livingroom-wall :D

I have not played Atari in a while. It comes in spells for me.

I been playing the past week ... on the 2600.

- Sworquest Earthworld / Porky's / Sorcerer /E.T. /Spikes Peak.

*shakes head* not yet... for some reason those damn brats I can't hit 100% all the time, and that's usually the killer for me.

 

Been waaaay too busy lately. Between fixing stuff for friends, modding my guitar hero controller and improving my scores on there, trying to move my arcades upstairs, trying to potty train two dogs, throwing work into the mix, and I have very little time to play this week's game on the HSC let alone trying to improve scores on Quadrun or trying to max out Crackpots.

I think I play about an hour on weekdays and some more on weekends. What I play changes often though.

 

On the 2600 I play(test) mostly homebrew WIPs and I occasionally join the HSC for a game striking my interest.

 

Then I spend a lot of time MARPing :D

 

Since Kroko just repaired my Coleco, I also need to catch up here some, since I have collected about 20 games for it by now :)

 

The rest I'm playing other consoles I'm collecting for, like NES and SMS or any other modern Windows, Console or NDS/PSP games.

I've been playing almost everyday since I pulled my 2600 out of storage about a month or so ago.

Of course, I work at home, so it's easy to find the time. That said, I've also managed to host a few Atari parties - I'm amazed how little a few beers affect my gameplay (after all, I never played'em drunk back in the day, what me being a pre-teen and all.)

 

Games that I play pretty much daily: Berzerk, Frostbite, Solar Fox, Stampede, Bump 'N' Jump, Carnival, Kool-Aid Man, Seaquest
