In Topic: Fairchild Channel F on a 70s TV Show

What sucks is I bought the DVD set of Space Acadamey, Jason of Star Command, and some other 70s TV series. But now I can't find it!

I don't think the world is even ready for a Partridge Family reunion world tour.

In Topic: Choose Your Own Adventure Computer Games?

Thu Jan 26, 2012 3:17 PM

If you wanted to make your own choose your own adventure-type game in any language or platform, I bet it would be easier than porting Pong. Just simple logic statements & print statements. Wallah, you are an instant game developer.

You could then sprinkle in things like hit points(certain entries gain/lower hit points) and such.

There was the CYOA books, but in the mid-80s,copycat books started to show up. Then some took it further to put in RPG elements. My favorite was the Grail Quest series. You needed a dice & character sheet to play it. Another one, I think it was Wizards, Warriors & You used coin fiipping. Some got really elaborate.

In Topic: Best (and Worst?) Classic Game Sound FX?

Best: any Williams coin-op game. All trippy & professional sounding. They often used the same sounds across multiple games, since they were that good.

I was at a game store yesterday, and saw the f-bomb lightly etched on a ColecoVision cart.
