I can remember playing "Pong" in 1976 over at my friends place. I think we discussed how this game could go somewhere someday.... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>11 years later he had an Atari ST and I had an Amiga A500. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>We played "Empire" a lot on them, and worked on a game called "Captain Blood" for hours on end, trying to talk to the aliens and figure out how to find the clones. It took me ages, and scads of retries before I beat that game. (For all I know, I'm the only person who ever found all 5 clones and got the girl at the end. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ) We also worked on a very interesting game called "Dungeon Master". Too bad there was no way to emulate one or the other O/S on to the other platform. We couldn't swap saved games. <p></p><i></i>

LOL. I was gonna add pong to my list but didn't want anyone to laugh at me. I wasn't sure if playing a black and white video game really counted as gaming. Pong really was cool. I think my mom and dad bought it for me at the local drugstore. I think me and my brother played that till the paddles were burned into the television screen. Yet another simple game that created hours and hours of fun. That was state of the art at one time. I think I may go to ebay and see if I can find this one.<img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif" /> <p>Naughtius Maximus <br><br>"Brothers!
