Justin Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 Cool finds Rob! I used to have the ZIP 250 drive for my laptop back when I first built this site around 2000. Great to see you so active with your channel lately. Also love that Rocketeer poster on the wall. Best wishes to you. MaximumRD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaximumRD Posted April 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Blast from the past! WOW! 😛😆😎One thing leads to another and I came across THIS fun old video where I responded to some video game related questions. I am always amused particularly because I just don't remember videos I did like this 10 years ago, mostly because I just answer off the top of my head, fun to see my answers and what I was into at the time, who I was responding to and connected with etc. Just sharing some fun little stories but interesting if anyone wants to answer the same questions today. 😃 What is the strangest place you have played a video game? What is the longest you've attempted to repair a computer/console non-stop? Have you ever had nightmares about games? Have you ever played a game that was too scary to play? socrates63, Atari Creep and Justin 3 Quote I am Rob aka MaximumRD aka OldSchoolRetroGamer and THIS is my world http://about.me/maximumrd "For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life.

Hah thanks, well I was 10 years younger and quite a bit heavier! 😆😜🤔But, these are the Youtube days I miss. Doing real video responses etc. I like looking at the people that commented back then and the stories people shared. Also me watching is like literally seeing myself say and do things I barely recall since it's all off the top of my head. I amuse myself often.

MaximumRD Posted September 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 😎😜My early experience with a classic computer, silly story, what's yours? First I start off with my usual rambling, plus a shoutout to jugghead82, then a silly story of mischievous youths interaction with a very classic computer. PLEASE leave a comment or quick response video relating your own interaction or experience with a classic computer or computing platform check out his channel HERE:https://www.youtube.com/user/jugghead82 Check out his Rock impersonation and tasting / review of Dwayne the Rock Johnson's TEQUELA (no not VODKA like I said in the video 😜) HERE: https://youtu.be/EZW1lqVMkRk Quote I am Rob aka MaximumRD aka OldSchoolRetroGamer and THIS is my world http://about.me/maximumrd "For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life.

MaximumRD Posted October 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 NOTE: I do NOT typically wear a mask in our car, and we wear masks only wear requested / required such as medical appointments or where masses of people gather etc. I wore it in car this time as we were on our way to an eye exam but also to show the viewers the mask my wife made from an old Slimware utilities T-shirt that never fit me. 😆😎 Just sharing for fun. Woke up to a major snowfall last week, it was very unseasonal for us this time of the year, a week later it's all but gone so it was either a freak thing OR who knows? Might be the way the weather is heading with changing climates. Please know that though I DO live in Canada unlike what many Americans and those outside Canada may think, my particular city located in the Okanagan is unlike surrounding B.C. cities like the very cold Winnipeg (often referred loving as WINTERPEG with good reason!) so this early huge snowfall came as we also experienced record low temps. What is the weather like in Okanagan? Average high temperature (summer): 28 C/84 F. Average low temperature (winter): -8 C/16 F. Average Hours of Sunshine: over 2000 per year. Average Rainfall: Approximately 300 mm/11in yearly.

MaximumRD Posted March 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Rambling about PS1/PS2 bootdiscs, HDD backups, Cheat Devices etc ALSO some talk about Game Genie and some cool NES random codes I made 😜😎 This is me rambling on for 30 minutes incoherently about PlayStation boot discs, cheat devices etc.😎It was a totally unexpected spur of the moment video that I probably should not have made public, but I figure it also serves the purpose letting my YouTube subscribers know that I’m still alive.😜 I am sure much of the info is wrong or at least some details are off but I invite anyone who knows better to comment and add to the conversation, thanks. 🤘🍻 My Facebook Classic Gaming, Computing and MORE (includes modern posts and conversations as well 😉 https://www.facebook.com/groups/maximumrdclassic Justin 1 Quote I am Rob aka MaximumRD aka OldSchoolRetroGamer and THIS is my world http://about.me/maximumrd "For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life.

MaximumRD Posted March 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 My unboxing of an classic Atari computer! Originally uploaded to VIMEO in 2012 I realized in 2017 I never uploaded it to my Youtube channel and corrected this asap. ANYWAY, it was a fun unboxing of a great machine I received from Bryan on Atariage and I still have! 😎 GRay Defender and Justin 2 Quote I am Rob aka MaximumRD aka OldSchoolRetroGamer and THIS is my world http://about.me/maximumrd "For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life.

MaximumRD Posted March 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 😜 To skip my rambling skip to around the 6min 40 sec mark just before my first chip for hilarious results (Though my rambling includes a mention to Trey and shoutout Chris's channel for suggesting this video) 😎 MY usual rambling and build up but feel free to go right to the 6 min 35 sec mark just before my first chip to see the real honest result. HINT worse reaction then I thought, no editing, what you see is what you get for better or worse....THANKS ATARICREEP FOR SUGGESTING THIS CRAZY VIDEO !

RickR Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 Fortuitous timing indeed. I just got a cache of different beers from a neighbor that moved and had to empty his fridge. I'm happy to post reviews here, but no videos. Justin and MaximumRD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaximumRD Posted November 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 Taking my mind off the chaotic storms, mudslides power outages and floods BC was hit with ( thankfully we seem to have been spared the brunt of it ) to try a couple New Zealand Chocolate treats received in this months Snack-crate box. Figured I might as well make a video as well. Thanks for watching!

MaximumRD Posted January 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) A quick question for GOOGLE - "What are the best games for the Atari Jaguar?" What do you think? Did you like ANYTHING better than the results given? Admittedly I've no "hands on" experience with the Jaguar console, it has only been through emulation and I kind of focused on games not found elsewhere so I thought Alien vs Predator or was cool.
