The Dad of Kong
Tuesday, March 11th, 2008This blog entry, from the programmer of Atari’s version of Donkey Kong, is a very interesting glimpse into a fledgling home video game industry.
Robotron 2008.
Monday, February 25th, 2008Back from a very fun GDC. Got a chance to meet American McGee and play an episode of the upcoming Grimm. Man. I’m officially excited about this game. Appealing on a lotta different levels, but I can especially see it scratching my OCD itch. I really didn’t want to stop playing.
But more on that as July approaches. The main thing for today is the Monday Leaderboard Tournament. I know we’ve talked about it on AW before, but I had to get it out there again since today’s game is only one of the most perfect arcade games ever: Robotron 2084. If you’ve never played Robotron, you MUST give it a shot. Don’t be scared (In the 2nd grade when this thing came out, I wouldn’t touch it. Two joysticks? Freaky sound effects? What a wussy kid I was, apparently.). It’s worth your time. Plus — as of 10am EST — MarioFanaticXV is sitting on top. And he needs some competition.
