Take a break and have some fun
I wanted to make this blog a little more interactive. A few days ago I posted a video clip from Ford. It seemed to be pretty popular. This time, I'd like to try a game that I found a long time ago.
You remember it... well, you do if you're as old as me. I remember playing it on an Atari 2600 game console. It was one of my first video games. It's Asteroids, of course. Here's a fairly accurate rendition of it as a Flash program.
Keep reading to play the game...
Use your left and right cursor keys to rotate your craft. Up fires your thrusters. Space fires your weapons.
Click on "Play game" with your mouse to begin.
Back in the day on the Atari 2600 far too much time was spent on this game. I could roll/flip the score back to zero. Once it was done twice in one sitting. That was a *long* game.
What was your first game console, and what was your first favorite game?

My first game console was a Texas Instrument system (can't remember exactly what type) and my first favorite game was "Big Foot." The object of the game was to climb up this snow covered mountian and drop a cage on Big Foot without getting hit by a snow boulders he threw.
