Or The Raiders of the Lost Ark, where you had to use the second controller to leave the first screen!

LOL!

I had totally forgotten about that...

Before everyone gets too excited about a new Star Wars movie, an interview with the (very funny)actor who played Darth Maul as he recounts the last time...

[DONNIEP]

Love the "chat" text box in your screen cap... pretty much covers it all 'round these parts:

"You have entered a very unclean stable. There is evidence that a large and untidy animal had lived here".

Yes, you have an most definitely it did.

Bwahahahaha!!!!

Enough with your advanced shit play a proper game!

I just completed it in 5 minutes - that's really fucked up those games were not cheap...

Still have my Adventure cart, and an Atari 7800. Played it a couple times a while ago but didn't do it in 5 minutes.

Raiders wasn't that hard after seeing the movie fifty times.

Wait a minute... are you telling me you played those games back then? In the late 70s/early 80s, when only losers played video games? Dang it, man! That's some massive nerd-cred right there. You're an UBER-Nerd!

Much respect, homie. Much respect.

Tuna, you a nerd too? Well, I'm not surprised there.

Raiders wasn't that hard???

I dare anyone to tell me what the fuck is going on here. Turn the captions off & try to make sense of it, go on!

They're Orcs, and there's seven of them.

I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed.

I'm jealous of you.

My question for him would be 'Why didn't you choose a stage name?'. I've known his work for years and still struggle with it.

I haven't played Raiders in years. I remember the hardest part was using the whip or whatever to get from mountain to mountain, and then the parachute into the cave. The movie made the map room part easy.

We'd head out on our bikes at 9 am, come home and swim, eat, then play video games from dark until damn near dawn. And that started with 2600 to ColecoVision to C64. I was out of it by the time NES hit, then started buying vintage stuff about ten years ago and play a lot of the old Nintendo stuff via emulation.

I like messing with you, but this time I'm gonna cut you a break, even though you basically stated you lived in a pond.

You should try the Indiana Jones graphic adventures. The Last Crusade is all right & based off the movie, so it's basically the same plot, but the Fate of Atlantis is just flat-out balls amazing. It's basically the fourth movie, with the Crystal Skull being the fifth.

Check it out at GOG: http://www.gog.com/game/indiana_jone...te_of_atlantis

They made it so you can play it in modern systems.

It's really one of the best games I've ever played. Since it's a graphic adventure, the story IS the gameplay. And it's really, really good. It's the lost Indiana Jones movie.

Pond? We had a ce-ment pond at the condos.

I've heard about the IJ game but never tried it. Didn't really play any graphic adventures, even on the C64. I'll have to see if it runs on the Ouya or something.

Ouya? You have an Ouya??? Who the hell has an Ouya? Why?

I don't think there's a version for... Ouya, but that game runs on any computer, unless we're talking about a 286.

Seriously, give it a go. You basically only use the mouse, which leaves a free hand for drinking. And it's not a reflex-based game, so drunkenness is not only a viable option, it's highly encouraged. Some of the puzzles require a well-lubricated mind!
