Atari Question - 11-25-08

Do you own an Atari 2600?

If so, what kind? What's your favorite game (or games)?

I'll start: I have a 1980 4-switcher, and my favorite games are Jungle Hunt, Vanguard, and Warlords.

Oh man I forgot about Adventure! XD I used to play that for hours trying to see how fast I could beat it. My record time on the easy mode (1 dragon) was about 32 secs or something...

@Retro Mario
lol I know what you mean. fortunately they're pretty cheap on ebay if you are looking for one. Believe it or not, I saw one with about 20 games go for like 7 bucks :D

I am an absolute BEAST when it comes to Space Invaders. I have broken into the top ten on numerous website leaderboards, including FC's.

I also enjoyed Adventure and River Raid.

Re: Atari Question - 12-05-08

I am literally unstoppable in Asteroids. I usually play until either my hand hurts or I get bored, and haven't gotten a game over in like ever. The longest I went was like until the score rolled over the second time. That would be like 199,980 points or something lol


@Stick: Battle? Do you mean Battlezone, with the tanks? 'Cause I love that game, but don't have a copy :(

Also, anyone think we should start an atari owners club in the social groups?
