A secret to staying alive longer, if you have the time, and are almost about to die, land your ship at the lowest valley between the hills, stop moving, and keep trying to move down. It should repair all of your damage.

lol, I can see that you really spent a lot of time on that game..
thanks for the hint, it will make me live a bit longer.
have you tried that other StarWars game on Atari 2600:"Return of the Jedi" ?
you fly a millenium Falcon and must destroy the death star, It's a great one.

My favorite game of all time is Unreal Tournament.

No other game even comes close to the amount of fun I've had with that game.

hey JR2000Z if their is not a single person coming to your city maybe it's because:
-didn't put any electricity
-didn't put any water (pumps, underground tubes)
-didn't build any roads
-you forgot to unpause the game http://www.xwingalliance.com/forums/smile.gif)

ok Thrawn, to destroy the Death Star II I think you have to hit the core (the red pixel.
These are the controls for "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (for some reason you can't use a joystick or gamepad):
"O" = up
"K" = left
": ;" = right
"L" = Down
"J" = shoot or action
and to select your items just use the arrow keys left or right

and how about you Thrawn, what is your favorite game of all time?

I used to play Maniac Mansion on my NES all the time, and that game truly ruled. I also liked TF a lot. How much? Well, I saw my friend play it on his 486, so I immediatly went and bought it. Too late, I realized that my 386 was below the box specs. Didn't stop me. I played it with all graphics at min, no sound, and at speeds better measured in seconds per frame, but I loved every minute of it.
Still, not my favorite game. Nothing compared to Falcon 3.0.

Ash, sorry to say that lad, but there IS one game that can compare to Falcon 3.0 and beat it, hands down !

Which is that ? Falcon 4.0 of course ! http://www.xwingalliance.com/forums/wink.gif)

hey Rune, It depends on which quake you're talking about..

best doom-like: Duke Nukem/Doom
best flight game: Down Patrol
best sci-fi flight game: Tie Fighters/Privateer (the first one)
best adventure game: Day of the tentacle/Fate of atlantis (just gotta love punching those nazis)
Am I forgetting something??

and best of the best of the best game of all time I say it's a tie betwen Day of the Tentacle and Fate of Atlantis

oh yeah I forgot:
the best beat'em up game: Samurai Shodown 4 (for NeoGeo)
all NeoGeo games were originally created for arcade so they are meant to be really impossible that way they force you to spend a maximum amount of quarters to continue.
SSD 4 is the most impossible beat'em up game I've ever played: I spent more than 2 hours trying to beat this guy, I couldn't do it! It was getting very late so I paused it for the whole night and continued the day after, still no victory. I got fed up with hurting my hand each time I banged the table with anger so I stopped...
Those kind of games are really bad for your health...

I justed finished a NeoGeo game and I calculated that if I had to play in a real arcade it would have taken me more than 30$ worth of quarters to finish it....
Damn quarter eating machines, they do well their jobs. Anybody here spent more than 50$ in a arcade game??
