So I picked up this new game, Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark for my Atari 2600 from our local Zayre last night. WOW! This game is N-tense. Each screen requires a unique control approach so things can get very sketchy. On one screen you're moving vertically trying to avoid Tsetse flies that can kill you. The next, you're leaping from mesa to mesa with your leather whip! Totally awesome stuff! And you get a way huge inventory of sweet gear to carry around like a gun, grenade, whip, an ankh (who knows), money, a SHOVEL, and apparently some magical flute. So far, I've ravaged lots of snakes, cracked a few flies with the whip, traded at a crusty bazaar for bullets, and used a parachute to catch a branch hiding a secret cave! DUDE!
Anyway. Check it out. I gotta bail to install these new pegs on my Raleigh. Sweet day so far!
Hey! There should be a section for video game talk around here somewhere!
