On A8, I only have 3 of those titles: River Raid and Pittstop (1), Lode Runner and one of the "mini-games": Serpentine. The latter 2 I've never even powered up.

That's alright.
I haven't played a few of these mini games too.
We'll learn as we go.
I keep crashing on Kik Start.

Have just finished gluing new 'Go Faster' stripes on my joypad so this is the ideal opportunity to test them out. Count me in

dude, they dont work... you have to use a fart can...

then you have a 'turbo' controller!

sloopy.

Lol. My last wife would tell you I've always had a turbo controller. But you shouldn't listen to that witch - it's her fault if she occasionally got left behind!

[justin case]

I can't believe some of you need to practice. (He said, wagging a stiff-upper-lipped British finger at the lot of them) bloody foreigners! It's just not cricket!! You should all excuse yourselves from the fray (so I've got a chance to shine!)

Oh, and erm, Good luck. May the best over-rummed Brit win, eh? Mwahahahahahaha

[justin case]

Just had a random (Atari/childhood) related memory: Playing decathlon / a n other sporty wee number and holding a classic 'Quickshot' by the base - shaking it like its the preverbial baby / ex-wife for a world-stopping high score in the hundred meters when the bloody stick fell off! Lesson learned: cheats never prosper? Nah: Don;t play Atari in the conservatory!!

Life has taken a bit of a nose dive - can see so much gaming time on the horizon that I might have to limit my sleep to once ever other, other night - Lord alone knows if my wrists can take the strain - I'm sure that many of my [friendly] competitors can give me some tips on how to strengthen them!!

[justin case]

Hey, Bob!!

What's our Team name? Can I recommend the 'Oponent killers'? Or maybe the 'Flying Knee surgeons'? What our 'Postitnsuffa'? Or my personal favourite 'weKnowWhereYouLiveMoFo'! I'm easy about it, so whatever you n RKade come up with is fine by me, but please note the "pinkcrossdressingbiatches" is [sadly] already taken

[poobah]

If someone needs a 4th, I'll pull a Favre and come out of retirement

Hey sloopy is looking at River Raid ahead of time! He should be disqualified!



At least make him play with Le Stick joystick...

Atarimax 8mbit .BIN, workbook, and flasher ATR for these games below.

The cartridge consists of three ROM images, a couple ATRs, and the rest are XEX files. I hope they are all acceptable. They all start. I can't promise anything more than that.

The cart won't work properly on 400s and 800s. Can't be helped. Sorry.

5200 port is way better IMO.

[RKade]

I can't even PLAY a bunch of these... I don't know how to play the rest of those games. How sad...

40275 on Loderunner.
16540 on River Raid.
2150 on Serpentine (my xbox controller hates this game so much.)
3830 on Turmoil

[roadrunner]

What skill level are we playing for Leaderboard Golf?
It looks like this game doesn't auto choose the best club to use.
It could take awhile to play all 18 holes.
Maybe we should of played this one in a regular 2 week round.
