The Games of the Atari Flashback Classics vol. 3: Part 3: 2600 Games

Yea, that thing. I forget what it was called in the instruction manual and in the achievement description, but it didn't look like it at all. I had to guess. 

The Belly of the Beast - Lifeforce

I got an Atari one Christmas, but I think the NES would've been really special. 

I might have tried Lifeforce when I was exploring the NES back in the 90s. I don't know. It's weird, but I never thought of using the Konami code. Now I want to go back and use it.

These Thrift stores think they got gold with the stuff they get. I never paid more than a couple dollars for a Skylander when they were on sale at Gamestop. I'd walk away at $6.

Funny thing, the Iverson era. These days it's all about how well you can shoot 3s. I watched a Villanova game last week. It's crazy how much they go for the 3 pointer now. I watched a guy go right under the basket and instead of putting in the easy 2, he chucked to a guy outside the paint and they got the 3. I'm not a fan of this new style of ball.

I tried to message you over the PS app but it asked me to install a PS messenger app to do it. WTF. Why do both Sony and MS have multiple apps for the same product. Makes no frickin' sense to me. 

Driving Crazy - Stunts

Maybe the inspiration for the Stuntman series a decade later. I played a little bit of that.

In going for achievements on these games I figured some of them out and got to like them. One was Aquaventure. You go down some 6 screens, grab a treasure and return before your air runs out. Those darn fish are a pain though.

I remember playing Frogs & Flies on the original system with my friend Mark and we had a blast with it. It's just a little bit simpler version of Frog Bog on Intellivision. I like the 2600 version a little better because of that. 

It's impossible to the get the achievement in Holey Moley without a keypad. Atari did have a key pad, but I never owned one. Mark got close though. It's just too hard to select a hole to bash fast enough with the joystick. 

Saboteur was interesting. I couldn't figure out what to do on the last screen and aiming your shots was tricky.

Sea Battle is my favorite Intellivision game. I don't think I played it here because it's strictly a two-player game. 

I got the achievment on Wizard by just shooting that purple spider thing a lot. I had no idea what I was doing.

I just downloaded a game from the Game Pass app to my Xbox. I'll see next week if it worked. 

I was wondering if there was a Playstation app. I just downloaded it. Seems to be pretty cool. I'll have to think of something to download to test it.

It was the first thing I did on the first PC that I bought. It stuck in my mind. Latest technology and all that.

They could be worse though. I think they try and hit the right mark. Some of the worst I've seen have been on some JRPGs. Stuff like, I think it was, Phantasy Star Universe where you have to raise all the character types to level 1000. It would seriously take you hundreds of hours to do that. 

Wait, I looked it up. It was Final Fantasy XI.
