It’s great fun! Glad the Worms got an addictive game of pinball.

Oh that must’ve been great! I wish I could go back in time and relive the experience. This had to be a bestseller at every arcade at the time.

A very big deal indeed. Minds were blown.

It’s great isn’t it!😄 That voice stays with you forever. I remember marking out big time when MechaGodzilla did his laugh. I think I was the only one in the cinema that had a flashback to Gorf’s mocking laugh when you failed. Fantastic game!😄

Yeah the C64 version played great. My first time playing this was on the VIC-20 and they did a good job with that too. Excellent game!

5,360! If you’ve ever been in an arcade, chances are you’ve seen someone deep in conversation with this cabinet. Not polite convos mind you, but crude, vile, and highly censorious chatter. We’re talking “Yo Mama So Ugly..” smack! Gorf doesn’t hold back on mocking your sad attempt to conquer it.

A great game with some excellent home versions too.

Some super songs that year. Duran Duran, Wham!, Thompson Twins.. what a time for music!!

It’s great! Made the legends seem almost human to us peasants at the time.😁

Just because you aren’t a child anymore doesn’t mean you’re too proud to carry the lunchbox that fed you all those years ago. The Lunchboxes (Top to Bottom) • Top Lunchbox: E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial • Main Color: Primarily bright yellow. • Artwork: Features the iconic scene where the young boy, Elliott, stands on the left in an orange hoodie, touching fingers with the alien E.T., who is on the right. Both look toward the middle. E.T. has large, expressive eyes and Elliott is holding a glowing finger. The title "E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL" is printed in the upper right. • Middle Lunchbox: The A-Team • Main Color: Primarily red on the left and yellow on the right side of the main graphic. • Artwork: The large, red, block letter "A" dominates the left side. The image features the four main cast members of the TV show The A-Team posed together: from left, George Peppard (Hannibal), Dirk Benedict (Face), Dwight Schultz (Murdock), and Mr. T (B.A. Baracus), who is wearing his signature gold chains and a serious expression. A small image of a van and a helicopter are also visible. • Bottom Lunchbox: The Archies • Main Color: The image is set against a brightly colored backdrop of green grass and a blue sky. • Artwork: Depicts the characters from The Archies cartoon, an animated version of the Archie comics. The scene shows the group in a race or on an outing. Archie is in the foreground, riding a large, novelty bicycle. Veronica (or Betty) and Jughead are riding in a bright yellow, antique-style car with large red wheels. The title "THE ARCHIES" is visible above the car.

Just because you aren’t a child anymore doesn’t mean you’re too proud to carry the lunchbox that fed you all those years ago.

“If he can withstand just three minutes in the cage with Bone Saw McGraw, the sum of $3000 will be paid to... What's your name, kid?”
“The Human Spider.”
“The Human Spider? That's it. That's the best you got?”
“Yeah.”
“Oh, that sucks!”

😄 It is. Poor guy’s wiped out.

It’s great isn’t it.😄 The things those little bandits get up to.

The image is a mobile phone screenshot of a Yahoo news feed showing a breaking news headline in large bold black text: "Raccoon goes on drunken rampage in Virginia liquor store and passes out on bathroom floor"

Maybe there is something to this reincarnation deal. I thought this was just a human trait. Raccoons never disappoint!

It’s a very tough call in those early years for sure. So many systems to enjoy.

I think it was a penalty kick too. Even though he was the greatest that must’ve been pressure. Brilliant sportsman.
