It's sad that that happens sometimes. Yea, like I think I'm about the only person who like Jungle Hunt better than Pitfall. I know I'm an oddity. socrates63, nosweargamer, HDN and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see someone liking Pitfall! more. It's a bit more complex and almost like an adventure. The memorization involved and the time limit have always kept me from enjoying it as much as I could have. I like the sequel a bit more. Have you thought about reviewing that one anytime soon, @nosweargamer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you mention that, because getting all of the treasures was one of the most satisfy game experiences I ever had, mostly because of all the work that was involved, lol. It's a good thing I liked playing the game so much! As for the sequel, I'm not super familiar with it, but I have it and do plan to review it one day. socrates63 1 Quote The No Swear Gamer on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChtJuo040EOCTVziObIgVcg Host of The Atari 7800 Game by Game Podcast on iTunes, Stitcher and YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDN Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 @nosweargamer It reminds me of Metroid sort of. Like a precursor. Great sound track, too; I'm pretty sure it has POKEY. I'd love to get my hands on the physical cart someday. nosweargamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPC is also his intials.

Really? Thanks for telling me! I guess now that I think about it it doesn't really sound like POKEY. I guess you learn something new every day! But really, you should review the game. Review Super Metroid, too. :) nosweargamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got Switch Online, so he has no excuse not to. He's a big fan of Metroidvania games like Hollow Knight, so he should at least give it a try. It just infuriates me. nosweargamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDN Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 I played some Haunted House today. A lot better than I gave it credit for. I can see how it could be in someone's top ten for so long. Wow, all my opinions are changing today. nosweargamer and socrates63 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing your Pitfall! walkthrough video a few months ago was when I learned for the first time that the goal of the game was to collect all the treasure and that there was an end to the game 😮 🤯 💥 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to pick some of these up. 40 were ranked higher than the only game I own currently (Pole Position II), so I'd better start saving up! But seriously, thanks. This is a great resource for brand-new 7800 collectors like myself. Now if I could only get this stubborn controller clean... On an unrelated note, I've never much cared for Robotron 2084. It has always seemed empty without the maze element to it. Almost mindless. In Berzerk there is more strategy with Evil Otto, the mazes, the robots, and your inability to fire multiple shots. socrates63 and Sabertooth 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
