Before you get all excited about Alien, there is another game that I think that would be even better. Don't really know the name of it, but.. You are a cat and there are dogs after you (I think it is similar to mousetrap) but instead of doors and bones, you eat something that turns you into a dog catcher and then you chase the dogs. It is very well done. If I can find the name, I'll let you know. Maybe someone out there knows the game I am talking about. I think it is the best Pac-like game for the 2600, besides Pac-Jr. and Ms. Pac. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Buy/Sell/Trade Atari and Other Classic Video Games <http://idt.net/~leekru19/trade.html> Krueger Homepage <http://idt.net/~leekru19/> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- Stella list is Administered by krishna@xxxxxxxxxxxx <Glenn Saunders> Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/stella.html +-shameless plugs-------------------------------------------------------+ | Stella documentary at http://www.primenet.com/~krishna | | Nick's VCS links via http://www.primenet.com/~nickb/atariprg.htm | | Write the best game, win framed autographs of famous Atari alumni!! | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
