    Whoops.. missed that "t"

    "Puzzlequest meets FTL in this Steampunk Victorian era roguelite" 

     

    Interesting. I loved puzzlequest! I really need to play FTL someday.

     

    Anywho.. how does one obtain keys for steam? Trading looks like fun.

    Ya, although I sort of remember as a kid not being floored by the Colecovision games

    I was the opposite. I couldn't wait to get my hands on one.I was lucky, got one for my birthday back in the day, box art was amazing..still have it!  My first "nextgen" console!! I played a lot of shooters on the Atari (Berzerk,Asteroids,River Raid..etc.)which I loved. The Coleco was special as It brought new styles of games for me to play... All of these a first for me. Montezuma's Revenge-Platform, Pitstop-Racing, Gateway to Apshai-Action RPG, 2010: The Graphic Action Game-Puzzle and Zaxxon-an isometric shooter at home! The flame for it burnt bright and short, less 3 years later I moved onto PC gaming.. But wow what a blast it was.

    @Warboss Gegguz  Thank you for your kind reply.  So, are you saying that you are not an employee of Atari?  And that, basically, you're just like the rest of us, just hanging out here because you love Atari games and like to talk about them with other fellow retrogamers?  I just find this hard to believe.

    Why not? Has a lot to say and I'm enjoying his input here.I enjoy talking about games to fellow gamers of all ages. From my grandson to my Xbox friends in their mid sixties.

    Not trolling.  I want to ask @Albert about this when he is back from the holidays.  

    About what? If Warboss is an Atari employee? Or avatar Atari flair ?

    Quantum Recharged is 2 dollars off right now, maybe I'll grab it since it's one I don't have. 

    I had the same mindset here. Berserk Recharged is 50% off on Xbox marketplace .Along with just about the whole recharged series. And it’s actually quite good. Once you get used to the twin stick shooting I had fun time. And if this is the worst reviewed game in the series, I think I’m gonna gobble the rest of them up because I’m enjoying it.

  5. @thevnaguy we’re so glad you enjoyed your gifts, it was fun to watch the unpacking video.Unfortunately we forgot to put batteries in for a little Yoda. Do yourself a favor and put some in, you’ll get a kick out of it. Lots of great gifts this year and it looks like everyone had a fantastic time again. Happy new year to all. 
     

    by the way, we wanna know if you have a little dog like in the picture ☝️ above?!?

    If they marketed this product in a Super Bowl Sunday commercial, many many many many more people would know the system actually existed and might be tempted to give it a purchase.

    Never ever gonna happen.That's an insane amount of cast to spend. If you showed the average joe the VCS they'd push it aside looking for today's popular modern console. The 2600+ has a better chance of hitting decent sale numbers.

  7. Here’s a quick post between family gatherings. @imstarryeyed fantastic job. I love it all.

    It’s amazing you were able to find no man’s sky merchandise. It’s so good I love it.. Driver I just ripped from the CD and put in duckstation so I can play that again very soon. I’m sure the intro will whip my butt again. Anyone that’s played it knows exactly what I’m talking about.Lol and you totally fooled me with virtua racing I was willing to bet it was a book at felt like one. Little did I know it’s one of my favorite Sega games was inside. And I’m totally pumped to play the remastered version of Alan Wake. Gotta go back and join the family. I’m hoping to catch up with this thread tomorrow. Merry Christmas and good night.

    I can't wait to get my hands on a copy or two to show off to friends and family.

    Just checking this game out for the first time. @SmittyB You should be very proud of yourself. The highest compliment I can give you is this looks like a an Atari ST game. Very impressive.

    Wow! I absolutely love this red dead poster! And a genesis game that’s new to me. Something new to hang on the wall and something new to play that’ll hold me over till Christmas.
     

    thanks @imstarryeyed


     

    oh, and I learned about a new DC comic character.

    that makes Starfield look like a dollar store knockoff by comparison

    Small chuckle from this. I had to shelf it for a bit. Came into a main story game breaking bug with an automatic door that simply will not open. I hope it gets patched.
