Zork I was the first computer game I ever played on the old Commodore 64, in about 1985 or so. I would play it for hours on end and it took me months to solve it (hey I was only 11 at the time !)
Some other games I remember fondly:
Commodore 64:
Ultima III and IV
Legacy of the Ancients
Maniac Mansion
Alternate Reality the Dungeon
The Lurking Horror
Might and Magic II
Phantasie III
Atari 2600:
Adventure
Haunted House
Pitfall
River Raid
Starmaster

I have my 2600 in a closet somewhere. I literally played it till I wore out the joysticks. I remember "rolling over" Missile Command (rolling the score counter past 999,999 to zero.)

there was a great non true myth when you played arcade Battle Zone. The myth was you could drive the tank off to the volcano and into the creater.

anyone here ever win activison patches for getting certain high scores for activision games I should have, I played Laser Blast until my fingers bled (I enjoyed it then but now I realize how terrible & Monotonous the game really is) but the pictures I took of my TV would never come out, So I never got one of those damm patches.

You needed to score 3,000 on Kaboom! to get the patch. I scored 12,000. But I never took a picture of it.

thats another one i got but cant find now kaboom. I got something like 7000 if i rember right. I waslooking on ebay a few days ago to see about getting patches that i cant find or never won but those darn thing s are going for 150 -200 dollars EACH thats way to rich fro my blood at this time i just sank a big chunk of my tax check on a couple of team autograghed football helmets so im pretty much broke or i would probably buy a patch for pitfall that was the coolest looking patch they made that i cant find in my house.
