When I say classic I mean truly classic. I mean things like Dig Dug, Galaga, Pole Position, Galaxian, Pac Man, Mrs. Pac Man, Pitfall, etc. All those good old games that we knew and loved for Atari and whatever.
I recently picked up my Namcomuseum cartridge for my Nintendo 64, seeing as how all of our Atari stuff was given away a very long time ago. It was the first time in at least 7 years I had played Galaga. I still remembered the ol' tractor beam and double fighter and the strategies I used... shooting down ships as they came down the bees flying back up and the butterflies waving around toward you as they fell. The extra points for falling enemies, and extra points for formation, etc. I wasn't entirely bad at it either... 50,000 pts first game I'd played in at least 7 years. I was happy. It was great to play these games again. I only got to round 3 or 4 on Dig Dug, but it was still great. I remember Galaxian, just like Galaga only Galaga was much better. Pole Position was never one of my favorites... also Pacman. I used to love Pacman. I'd have strategies to get through the levels and everything. I remember bright blue borders... green borders, every kind of border. In fact, my dad was great at pacman. He basically completed the game one time.
So anybody really ever think about the classics, or even pick them up and play them from time to time? I was just playing Call of Duty and then got bored and thought, "Hey, why don't I play Galaga?" I actually had a lot of fun. They're great games.
