Old School Gamers

[r3port3r66]

OK you Mofo's over thirty. Remember when David Lee Roth had a number one song called "Jump", and we used to ditch school just to go to the arcade? No? Well maybe this link will refresh your memories. Let it load(about 3 mins for dial up), and try to shake that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach as you remember letting that last quarter roll down the slot....enjoy friends.

P.S. watch the whole thing, and see if you can remember the name of every game....

Kong sounds just like David Lee Roth... ;D

That was awesome. Not only do I remember most of those arcade games, but I also remember my first game machine, PONG! Damn, I'm getting old.

That was cool! I think I saw Track and Field in there... Mmmmm.. my favourite.

And.. ehrm.. it's Van Halen, not just David Lee Roth. I got the LP for christmas when I was 9.

Woo-Hoo! I still think Dee Snyder is one of the smartest artists in rock.

Did you ever go for Alan Parson's Project--"Eye in the Sky"?

Nope. But I discovered hard rock with this one:

(not the same year it was released though.. :rolleyes: )

Ok, we're kind of off topic now, aren't we??

Peter Criss, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Ace Fraley....OMG it's junior high all over again!

So tell me Piddy, on Track and Field, did you use the giant sized ball on the games console, or did you use the one with only buttons. Remember push-push-push-push-push(running)---jump!

My first concert: Kiss on the Animalize-tour in 1984. You should see my room in those days. You couldn't see the wallpaper for all the pics and posters of Kiss. I was hardcore to the bone.

Track and Field. Since I'm a drummer and have fast hands I only used buttons. I was also undisputed champ of Decathlon on Commodore 64.
