GRay Defender

Here it is:

That was an impressive review, I agree. I too was disapointed regarding the fake keyboard. The lag is also a concern for me. I hope they improved the whole SD ROM loading process on the final version. I hope to do my own less comprehensive review soon.

Nice list NSG! Just to have a list like that is one thing, but to have the list and have video reviewed all of the games on your list, that is quite a feat.

Check out this great game even if you don't own a Commodore 64:

Here's my score and gameplay. 23060.

They are cute and pretty good. Had never seen them before over 79M views...

I'm no pro like some of you guys, but I thought it would be fun to record a gameplay video of my participation. Spoiler, my final score was 25,800

The board games like checkers...

I have a spare copy of issue 1 with the poster. Anyone interested in US? Send me a PM and I'll send it out to you...

Hi Sean, I had recently purchased Super Circus Atari from Atariage, but had not found the time to try it out until now. But before I get into that, I wanted to point out something I am not sure how many people appreciate, which is the fact that the controller inputs and difficulty switches are on the front side of the 7800. Sooo much more convenient. Anyhow on to the game. A nice bonus with this purchase was the neat patch that was included with the box copy. I love the Carnival style intro music which plays on the main menu as well as the smooth scrolling Game Title and Atariage words. The game only has a few options, but it makes the most of them. I love how it includes the classic mode which is an homage to the Atari 2600 version. The controller options allow you to switch the controller from the standard joystick to the paddles. Playing with a joystick seems fine until you realize you cannot move horizontally quickly enough once the gameplay starts speeding up. Switching to paddles, is the way this game I believe was intended to be played. Note: In order to play with the paddles, leave the joystick plugged into port 1 and simply plug the paddles into joystick port 2. I tried a couple of sets of paddles due to the infamous problem some of the old atari paddles have, the jaggyness issue. I know there are ways of fixing this issue, but the way I was finally able to address it was to plug in my brand new AtGames replacement paddles which I purchased several months back for about $15.00. Playing with good paddles makes all the difference. I immediately noticed an increase in my accuracy and scoring. I love the power up options. The fact that there are two player options is another huge plus. You can either alternate play or play simultaneously with a friend. Should you decide to play the refill-all option, I love that there is a boss balloon bonus round. Little creative things like this make all the difference. One thing I am curious about, which you may have already covered is, why the 2010 copyright date? Anyhow, I am enjoying playing this game and it will only get better as my skill improves with time.

That's a pretty sweet cartridge. Thanks for sharing!

Nice ticket! I plan to see it this weekend.

Welcome sir!

He was a good actor in lots of stuff on classic TV. RIP my friend...

San Bernardino, California. Let's take a walk down my memory lane going all the way back to the early to mid 80's, I'll share some of the spots I used to frequent as a youngster desperate to play arcade machines, just about any would do. Located at roughly 33rd and E streets across from a gas station, this was the site of my "go to" arcade. It's the one on the left side which is now some sort of Internet Café. It has been host to many businesses since being an arcade. This is where I first saw many arcade games including Williams Defender and Atari Missile Command. It looks so much smaller to me now. I remember for a short period of time I had an allowance of two bucks a day for lunch, which of course means I would starve myself to play in this arcade. Just down the street from the local arcade, was a sandwich shop called "Butches Grinders". It has since been torn down and made into a bus stop + parking. They always had at least one arcade machine that I would try to play. Located catty corner to the bus stop is P&J Liquor store. At the time they kept one arcade machine in there. I would try to sneak in over there after school as well or when my parents went shopping at Alpha Beta which was next door. I have a rather specific memory of a few kids making fun of me while I was playing a game. When I asked what they were laughing about, it was because I was wearing a polo shirt with it all buttoned up to the top. A few years went by and there were still a few arcade machines to be found around various places in San Bernardino. Located just above 40th street and Sierra Way this used to be a Roaring 20s Pizza place. There was a mini-arcade located in the back where you order. I cannot remember eating any pizza there however. Located at 40th and H street, this used to be multiple businesses including a barber and a small Arcade. And finally, at the Inland Center Mall in the heart of the City, there used to be a stairwell leading down to an arcade area for the kids to play in. It has since been sealed up and turned into a children's play area. It was still there well into my mid 20's but I rarely went down there. These are by no means the only places with arcade machines in town, but they are the ones I remembered playing in. I hope you enjoyed!!

I cannot wait. Loved Sranger Things

Thank you No Swear Gamer, another terrific video! lol. I hope you can use some of those items. My personal favorite out of the bunch is the Art of Atari book, a must have for any collector. I tried to mix it up just a little because I know you do a ton of reviews on different systems. Keep up the good work and remember to keep first things first!

Hello everyone this is my first Intellivision game review. I hop you enjoy it! Either way check out Ultimate Pong...

I found them humorous.

My tribute to Keith Robinson. Rowsdower70, I hope you don't mind I used your picture at the end of the video...
