My dad playing "Asteroids" on the Atari 2600. xD :D :)

How bad can it be?

http://beginnergamecollecting.info/category/game-collecting/Speaking of the economic recession, here's a bit of game-related spending that flies in the face of saving money for a rainy day. Old game consoles   more...like the Atari 2600 and Nintendo Entertainment System have since become hotbeds of collector furor, with some of the rarest games for these vintage systems going for hundreds.  less

Taken from "Activision Anthology" a video game for PlayStation 2. xD

Only Atari gives you Space Invaders and Pac-Man, the world's most popular video games!

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial for the Atari 2600 played using the emulator called Stella, recorded with a freeware video capture program called CamStudio.

This is a general example, a fairly quick one where   more...I just get E.T. home. I wasn't trying for a speed record, but it is faster than some supposed 'speed runs' you'll find on the Internet. Notice that I also show E.T. being taken by the scientist and also escaping from him. (This video has no sound.)

Many people say that this game sucks, but some might change their minds after visiting my E.T. pages:

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial for the Atari 2600 played using the emulator called Stella and recorded with a freeware video capture program called CamStudio.

Dodging Asteroids by Joe Fielding 02-03-09©

So high into the sky.
To the future, we will fly.
So that nothing will harm us.
As the world blows into dust.

And all the stars surround us.
Making us wish we   more...were on the ground?
Looking at the majesty of the stars, shining down.

But hear we are.
Flying threw outer space.
As fast as a plane.
Dodging asteroids.

And that’s when I seen it coming.
Thee end of the earth, in time.
We all flew into space.
Just in the nick of time.

As every thing came to an end.
Global destruction and the sin.
We saw the sands of time.
When we flew away just in time.

But hear we are.
Flying threw outer space.
As fast as a plane.
Dodging asteroids.

(Solo)

But hear we are.
Flying threw outer space.
As fast as a plane.
Dodging asteroids.

There we were a loft in space.
Just a wondering ware we were.
Was every one gone?
In time we new.

There was just a Black whole.
There’s no one, no soul out hear.
Just us in are flying machine.
Made to live for as long as are battery’s last.

But hear we are.
Flying threw outer space.
As fast as a plane.
Dodging asteroids.  less

Origianlly uploaded to YouTube on December 31st, 2008. It was my first ever Internet video, and was uploaded within hours of joining the site. Thanks to fijberto for informing me about this game. The   more...video game is 30 years old as of the year this video is uploaded, and is out-dated beyound belief.  less
