While perusing Slashdot [1] I noticed this article [2] about a new Quake 3 map [3] based upon the old Atari 2600 VCS [4] game Adventure [5], which brought back a ton of memories, spending hours playing games—the most hilarious being Football [6] (well, at least I found it hilarious to play; the Intellivision [7] Football game [8] rocked though).
Not wanting to wake The Boys up, I found an Atari 2600 VCS emulator [9] I could use to play the games I remember from childhood. So I spent a few hours (okay, way too many hours) playing a ton of games, including one made in 1990! [10] (who knew Atari [11] even made cartridges for the 2600 that late?)
I even found a game [12] that Rob [13] might like.
