Ok.. who's sick of the 10yos beating us at these games!

[Captain Brain]

Does it really matter?

That "man" sat there AT LEAST ( I am sure many more ) 35 times at the computer to play that game...

His poor wife... I can seriously hear him now

"one more minute hunny... one mor- DAMN... flippin rocket... ok few more minutes hunny... just a few more"

Actually irish, not tooting my own horn, but i got it down to winning every time with my first life and not saving at all (why waste the points? lol) . So there really arent any "flippin rocket" comments around here.

oh, and i need to update that, it's at 47 now lol.

wish they'd add a rocket or something like they did with the blast game.

Oh and in our wedding vows, the big J.C.'s spokesperson clearly said "in sickness and in health, online and offline...etc" i heard him, uh huh. Thats my story and i'm sticking to it.

See irish? while you were busy with your 5 holes, i was busy spending every last qurater i could find frivolously. (yes kids, quarters are those things we had to use back before our parents bought us games we could play at home. Oh and chores are the things we had to do to GET the quarters. You see, we didnt get everything just because we wanted it. strange concept, i know. )

I was a tempest dude myself. That and galaga.

Oh and luv? I just made my own moving worm game. I get out my cap gun every time ol' George W. Dingleberry has a tv address.

Go stand in a REAL arcade, and play REAL galaga, on a REAL machine, without your big screens, and your fancy game pads and joysticks...then we'll talk.

Ok, that does it, i have officially become MR. Magoo.

And the sad thing is, half of them dont even know who Mr. Magoo is.

Oh!Mr.Magoo is that guy on BoomeRang!lol
He is the guy that can't see nothing but doesn't admit it?(yup,I have lived at the kiddie table for about 13 years now )

Thanks for the response.

My first win at Space Mountain was without losing any lives, and my second was losing one life. Still haven't gotten to the point where I'll strut the "no save" walk...

This month is real bad for work. After November will get a little better, but real life may have the habit of interfering.

And, to get back on topic, Spy Hunter was my game, though I do remember Space Invaders with the colored plastic over the monochrome screen... And before that, I played Sea Wolf as a wee tyke...

It's one per day,Joe.

Off topic:I haven't seen you in vmk for awhile Joe.

MousseDude if it makes you feel even better about yourself- lol- I couldn't even play the video games in the arcades- I was just the girl that would stand next to the cute boys or the boys her were winning (it was a bonus if they were both lol) and watch them play and bat my eyes so they'd put my initials in the top scores spaces. The only other way I could do that was reach behind the machines and unplug them to reset all the scores then play quick and get my initials there- of course once I walked away my scores would go away with the next ten players lol

Now the games I played were Frogger, Pacman and Centipede but liked the pinball machines better-

But that actually requires some sort of work and skill

That would be the ONLy game I would be good at though.Also a disney movie trivia game keeps sparking my interest.

Is it normal for kids to have good reaction times better than adults lol. I will go do some research, because USUALLY that is the case for these games ( source: This thread )
