There was so much more as I logged some good hours into it today. I was listening to them yell for help and cursing and all. I discovered I can then attach boosters to them and watch them fly around. Once, one of those guys attached to a balloon was also attached to an enemy car somehow. I watched the car take off and drag him along with it. The tether is so useful and amazing. There's no end to the wacky stuff you can do with it. 

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. 

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. 

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.
