For all you retro gamers out there, there is
a new plug n' play system out; it's the 5-in-1 Space Invaders package! For $20 you can't go wrong with classic Space Invaders, and 4 other classics from the late '70s and early '80s! Fun, fun, fun!  If somebody says that they don't remember or never played Space Invaders-I think that I'll keel over!  |

Thud!!!!! YOU DON'T KNOW HAT "SPACE INVADERS" IS?!?!?! Space Invaders is one of the best and most chalenging games of that era. I liked the table top version best. Miller, help me out here. Also, I loved Missle command. That was the bomb.....no pun intended. Later, Lumps -------------------- Lumpy

I wanna buy one of those little things you just plug into ur tv and it has pacman and other various classic arcade games. It's like 20 dollars and I'd probably get more entertainment out of that than some of the 50 dollar xbox games I buy

As usual.....So was I. But, I have many a memory of these games. It's just funny how many younger people have never played these and really don't even know what these game are. Now I feel OLD!!!! Later, Lumps -------------------- Lumpy

I'm currently enjoying Gradius 5; this installment is
a lot like Lifeforce-the game that inspired Gradius. The graphics are outstanding! Soon Midway Arcade Treasures vol. 2 will be out! More retro arcade games to enjoy! Quick memory: I remember back in the day when we would depart from the far north side of La Crosse Kwik Trip. Mork would always lecture Pete Conniff about dumping a large amount of quarters into the video games before we would go on tour. |

Ya' know, it's amazing how many hours we spent playing these games... lots of entertainment and NO BLOOD!!! Atari could get some pretty cool stuff in 16K - 48K of memory.
