Another game that's easy to play forever, though....the good old days when the programmers let you build up assloads of "lives" and you could go eat lunch while the game killed your bank of guys/bases/ships....and then start building them up again after your feast.... First game I remember being built specifically for the arcade owners so people couldn't play too long.... Pole Position! Held the record for most $$ in the arcades for what felt like FOREVER...

Asteroids!
Honorable mentions: Space Invaders, QBert, Centipede Continuing: I'll still play a game of Tetris now and then. Don't think it will ever go away. |

Remember the old track ball football games? That was my football fix during the week as a kid. That and my LED handheld football game that was three blips wide. Outjuke all the other blips and get yours to the end zone to score. Fun for hours.

Colin - I did the Q-bert hop the first time I walked across that floor. (I guess I can be embarrasing to be seen with in public)
 Baby Pac Man - the added pinball feature made it a killer game |

Well if we are talking home games, will have to go w/ Pitfall on the
Atari 2600 as my favorite... Still have it, 1 working joystick and the unit boxed up (right on top of the vic20, c64 and c128 boxes...lol) out in the garage... :P Arcade video games were VERY slow to reach my home town... Was forced to learn analog games such as pool from seedy n'ar do wells... I blame them on my current profession... lol

Centipede! I actually had a cocktail table arcade version of it for years until the 1st player trackball burned out. :P I knew a guy who sold them and only paid $150 for it. No one could beat me.

My ex-husband was a Frogger fan. One of the funniest scenes in Sienfeld was George navigating crossing the street a la Frogger when he was trying to keep his high score from disappearing.

Peaches, that was funny as hell... Good old Seinfeld, I think just about anything that can happen to you in your life was covered in some episode...
As far as old video games, it begins and ends with Asteroids. I could play for an hour and a half on one quarter. Back then I mean...

I had so many faves - but the one I mastered totally was Temptest...
Oh and "Yars Revenge" on the 2600 at home - I turned the score over like 12 times in a weekend - i'd play for 72 hours straight - I'd save up so many spare lives that I could sleep while the game stayed ON!!! h34r: I @m 3l33t. u ph34r me. h34r:

Wizardry.
Way before that, all of them, LOL... Pitfall was fantastic, Donkey Kong was so much fun, hell I even loved playing that tank game on the Atari on the 'ice' track - Mom and I would play for HOURS. I once won a Ms. Pac Man competition in Atlantic City. Played on a tabletop, of course. Edit: Can't forget sneaking into the library at school to play Leisure Suit Larry on the computers there. We had the game hidden deep in the school's network and kept moving it (and its copies) around. The teachers couldn't keep up with tracking the game down. They've got LSL for the Xbox now, haven't played it yet though. They've got Frogger too, but I can't find the damn thing around here to save my life.  Last edited by Carrie at Oct 14 2003, 10:40 AM

Damn... too many to mention...
Stargate, Donkey Kong, Defender, Tempest, Tron, Robotron, Galaga, Gorf, Anything off the atari 400/800 series, Gauntlet, Circus, Jack the giantkiller (only ever saw one stand up), Dig dug, Pole Position, Centipede... the list goes on... 1982 was a good year for games.

Defender is such a classic....the break out game for Williams that started them on their phenomenal roll of making the most challenging games for the time period. Nothing quite like surviving a Mutant Attack... Tempest has to be in the top 3 of all time, both for fun and level of challenge. Still recall the first time at the invisible level.....going "WHAT THE FUCK..."
