Again we had a lot of fun, though Dropzone is not a game for beginners. And I had no true competition on site :) Otherwise I had probably more motivation to increase my new (personal) high score at Dropzone.

greetings,
twh!

...but I have beaten twh at Track & Field on the Atari 2600 this evening!

Fast Food, Megamania, and Journey Escape all come to mind, but the single weirdest game I've ever played on the VCS is probably Walker, aka Clown Down Town, aka Schussel, der Polizistenschreck. It has this incredibly dreary East German vibe to it -- it's kind of the "Worker and Parasite" of VCS sidescrolling character games. The backgrounds are beautiful, but the gameplay is as if someone read about video games in a poorly translated book, and tried to implement the idea as best they could.
Yes, Clown Down Town is pretty weird - but I like it! "It has this Incredibly dreary East German vibe to it" - very interesting!

And don't forget Fire Spinner!

Every time AA is updated, the new look is shocking to me, but once I settle in, I like it.

For myself, I miss this effect with the update to 3.2.
...and now we have a "controverse discussion" :evil:

Please call me an "AtariAge forum martyr"

This forum needs more emotional discussions instead of "political correctness".
