I did 14/30. Not the greatest but several of the games I have never even heard of.

21/30. Forgot the name of

Pitfall

, don't think I'd heard of the others I missed.

[GeneMean 0]

29/30 I mispelled

Qix

[daileyxplanet 0]

20/30. Some of those games were simply before my time.

18/30. I knew about another 7 of the games but the names slipped me/ i had alternates or i misspelled them i.e

Centipede

[AndrewTS 0]

22/30.

 

I hadn't seen

Pengo

before, I was blanking on

Joust

because I always confuse it for Balloon Fight, I kept guessing the wrong name for

Moon Patrol

,

Missile Command, Centipede, and Defender

's graphics are all way too abstract for me to remember, having only played them a few times on comps.

Arkanoid

I blanked on the name, and that seems like a really shitty screen shot for

Gauntlet

. I couldn't tell what the hell I was looking at.

28/30...I missed Tempest (I knew the game, couldn't remember the name) and Pengo (don't think I've even heard of this game).

I can't even remember what the game was called on there, but I knew it as

breakout

. Didn't know

pengo

. Just couldn't remember the others or I didn't know them.

26/30. Has anyone heard of

Pengo

? I sure haven't, seems like some game which was never released in America. I'd also never heard of

Moon Patrol

, couldn't remember the name of

Qix

, and completely tarded out and forgot how to spell

"Missile" Command

.

[Ced 0]

27/30. Missed

Tempest

,

Pengo

, and

Moon Patrol

; All games I've never played or heard about. And the last of the 27 I got was

Missile Command

because like Jingus, I kept spelling

"Missile"

wrong.

18/30

 

I can't even remember what the game was called on there, but I knew it as

breakout

.

 

Arkanoid

, and I'm with you there. I tried

Breakout, Breakout!, Break Out, and Break Out!

to no avail. I remembered that

Arkanoid

often would be shown with the !, though.

 

The people who missed

Tempest

obviously missed the new AVGN. I heard of it before, sure, but I didn't have to think of it.

 

Huge props to everyone who did way better than me. Congrats, you're either older geeks than me or just way, way bigger geeks than me!

I'll take being an older geek, not sure if I can swing the bigger part, Drew!
