Title: Age poll
Post by: jjkolb on May 27, 2005, 09:06:00 AM
Milo's graduation post got me wondering.  Am I one of the oldest players on Layonara?  So I thought I would find out.  If you wish to partake, please select the age group that applies to you.

It's a nice poll but my age doesn't exist. You have a hole right in the middle.

*No worries, I added it.* :)

hehe.

GORF RULES!

My first experience with Gorf was on my Vic20... it was one of the first cartridge games I got for the machine. My Mom, brother, cousins and I used to play it all the time... *wipes a tear from his eye* ahhh those were the days... when games didn't require more than one button and a joystick...

Still...

I like Layonara better :)

A friend of mine had a tennis game, a console the size of a laptop, paddle wheels and monotone sound..Beep beep bop bop.

Hey those were the days..

1977 (http://'http://www.ambuscade.org.uk/Images/Slideshows/PeteMitchell/images/gameboy_jpg.jpg')

Yep, I do feel old now. :(

I still have an Intellevision 2.  In working order I might add.  Saved up for FOREVER to get an Intellevision, and the day I went to get it they released Intellevision 2.  Bought that sapsucker in a heartbeat.  Loved playing Pitfall on that baby...that was a real game system guys...raise your hand if you remember Intellevision and/or Pitfall...

Does anyone remember what is at the end of the Dungeons and Dragon game on Intellivision? My brother and I fought our way all the way down to the bottom with those blocky little dudes only to find a big pyramid-type structure with a cheesy dragon perpetually breathing enough flames to maybe light a cigarette and-----the Designer's Initials on the structure! We were so P.O.'d by that for weeks afterward! I felt like Ralphie on "A Christmas Story" with his Little Orphan Annie decoder ring and the disappointing ad it translated.

I never played D&D on Intellevision.  My favorite on there was Pitfall.  I loved how the guy had two positions.  The running one and the jumping one.  There were no other positions to be seen.  That was back in the day...*sigh*
