I'm sure it'll make for a heck of a read, especially given his career pivot. -

I'll be sitting this one out as I never touched Cybermorph when I had my Jaguar. Good luck to everyone in the Squad Challenge!

Why, yes, I am spending my Sunday afternoon watching the 2020 Classic Tetris World Championship on Twitch!
https://twitch.tv/classictetris
Spoiler Alert: We will have a new champion this year as 2-Time Champion, Joseph Saelee, lost in the 1st round of the Finals in 5 games.
I will add that watching these young gamers take Tetris to new heights is truly fantastic!
-
The Finals are delayed for the moment due to a power outage...in Indonesia! You read that right! The only non-US player remaining, Nenu, is en route to a friend's house as I type this post. Arda Öcal, one of the hosts of the CTWC, just informed the Twitch viewers of this development.
Oh, and Nenu's opponent in the Semifinals is PixelAndy. Why is this signifcant? The winner of this Semifinal will move on to the Final Match against...PixelAndy's brother, DogPlayingTetris!
Sometimes these stories really do write themselves...
-
DogPlayingTetris, the #1 seed and all of 13 years old, found himself down 0-2 in the Final Match against PixelAndy - his 15-year-old brother.
DogPlayingTetris stormed back to win 3 straight matches including a Game 5 thriller to win the 2020 CTWC!

Just off the top of my head, my non-Pac-man picks would be Donkey Kong, Tempest, and Zaxxon.

I just learned about this game last night. PixelHeart released a new racing game for Dreamcast called Arcade Racing Legends which really looks impressive. Sega Lord X posted a detailed review here:

I only knew about Ted Knight because I looked him up recently. He also did a lot of radio work in his career. He kept himself quite busy.

I believe it was the late, great Ted Knight

I'm really enjoying seeing the classic gaming systems & computers get pushed to new limits.

I learned of this title two days ago on EverythingC64. This platformer is in the early development stages but it looks very impressive. It's called The Wild Wood and you can learn more about it here: https://www.wildwoodgame.co.uk/ Kodiak64 is helping out with the code and posted an update earlier this month: https://kodiak64.com/blog/wild-wood-deconstructed The Wild Wood is slated for release in the summer of 2021.

untilStart your Thanksgiving holiday with the replay of Retro With Marco on Twitch! I'll be in the chat providing additional commentary on the show. htttps://twitch.tv/retrowithmarco

Thanks for the info! I may give this one a shot on my phone.

In addition to the games mentioned by both @RickR and @MaliciousCarp, I would add Archon to the list. I wasn't as big of a fan of Archon II but it's worth checking out. Summer Games II and Winter Games; Epyx really had a heck of run back in the 1980s. If you like adventure games, then check out The Bard's Tale. Infocom focused on text adventure games, including the Zork trilogy and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. This link lists several C64 developers on itch.io -- http://retrogamernation.com/commodore-64-itch-io-sites/ Another friendly forum site worth checking out is EverythingC64 as there are some gamers there who also like to work with BASIC -- https://everythingc64.boards.net/
