Not Done with Cyclone Fanatic

Ken Griffey Jr. baseball on Nintendo 64 is my favorite game of all time.

I would stick to Pong on the 13" black and white.

When we were little kids, the neighbors had one of those. Spent many hours playing it.

I can't believe I'm saying this but Activision REVOLUTIONIZED the 2600. Atari didn't really have that many good games. Unless of course you count 1-1 baseball or 3-3 football.

Radio Shack...complete with 2 controllers and a gun so you could play skeet. I have a 5200 around here somewhere...Games were good but the controllers sucked.

I agree Wx... The big games for the 2600 were pitfall, river raid, kaboom, and ice hockey. Those were by far the best games for the 2600.

I loved that space dungeon game for the 5200, I spent HOURS playing that. And that space fighting game, I cannot remember what it was called, but it was the first person view game where you had to shoot all the enemy ships down, you could get better lasers, etc.

The game that changed everything for me was Elite for the commodore 64, and Amiga. I think I played that game 8 hrs a day for years.

Ah, the Commodore. Grab the DAT drive, start the game loading before school so that we can play it when we get home.

Ah, the Commodore 64, now that was a computer!!!!


I even stored programs on a cassette tape.

Now that I think of it, I even had a 300 and I repeat a "300" baud modem. Now that was a speed demon!!!

Don't forget about the Intellevision, I spent many an hour playing Astrosmash, Baseball, and Space Spartans

Commodore had two separate chips - one 1mhz for graphcs and 1 mhz for the engine. Wow, that baby cranked out.

Recently I saw an Intellivision console at Bed, Bath & Beyond (shut up). You could get the entire Intellivision game catalog on a single system for $10.

Madden 2007 has nothing on Intellivision Football.

Best game ever: Caveman Games! With such as events as the Mate toss and my personal favorite, fire starting. Nothing like getting hammered while competing with your friends to start a fire.

I'm all about old school NES. Had a MAX controller growing up - the auto turbo buttons ROCKED! Unfortunatly, my brother sold all the games when I left for collage (greedy #%#%@).....so I had to get a controller for my PC and now I play them there. BTW, best game ever - Snake Rattle n' Roll
