I love you guys for remembering "Pong". It was great to be able to play a game after numerous shots of tequilla and still understand the concept of the game! Which was Mitch Miller-like. Just follow the bouncing ball. Uh, oh. I really dated myself there, didn't I? Oh I'll join you Trixie. I remember Mitch and Pong. My fil just said last night that he still has it attached to the old b/w tv in the unused living room. LOVED the outrageously funny commentary on The Toilet Swill aka AMC. Could MAnnie be any more annoying? I only see snatches on SoapNet and I hate her!

If you describe it I might be able to help ya. I'll try anyways. it had to be atari and i played this game in grade school (soo 80's) until my eyes bled. and i know the name but it's stuck in the middle of my brain. the little guy would swing tarzan style over alligators or you could jump on their heads just right to get over the swamp. GRRRRR what is the name? ?

I think you're talking about Pitfall. That game rocked OMG - pitfall!!!! that game was freakin awesome. with killer graphics at the time ;D. i would play it over and over (like i said until my eyes bled) thank you sweeti. now if i could get my hands on the system and the games i'd be in heaven. PS2 and X-box are a little much for me (esp with 1million buttons) atari good. loved super ninetendo when i was in highschool (late highschool and just out i believe) and i have a dreamcast. couple easy buttons!!!!!!!!

You're very welcome That happens to be a game I don't have, but I still loved it and played it at friends' houses every chance I got. I never got beyond Nintendo myself, but I'm sure I will be soon b/c of my son. Atari still rules all though in my book:)
