This is where I'm carrying on with the stuff started here.

So.

While I must admit that I would vote Bubble Bobble the game* most likely to cause orgasms, my avatar was not said game's beloved character, Bub.

In actual fact, my avatar was the iguana, Quincy, from the comic strip by Bill Amend, "FoxTrot". Quincy Fox if you include the family name. Quincy was my alias for a long time, but it was shortened to QFox due to a game only accepting aliases of 5 characters or less. The new alias stuck for awhile, but then I ended up 1337-afying it by changing the F to a PH, and lowercasing the lot.

The final result: qphox

But continuing on, let's do a case study.

Bub:

Quincy:

Alright, I'd say that pretty much covers it.

Also, my current avatar came from Something Awful, from a game review for "Necrotech". The exact page itself where my avatar can be found is here. The picture itself just makes me laugh whenever I look at it. I think it's the eyes.

BUBBLE BOBBLE RULES!!! There is a special code you can enter in the arcade that allows you to have quickshot (blue candy) and rapid shot (orange candy) at all times, even if you die.. the only one you need to find ever is the purple candy which makes your bubbles go almost all the way across the screen. If anyone knows the special code please tell me!!

Hahahaha "1337-afying" is the best word ever!!

But onto more serious matters, i voted for the *original* Donkey Kong. that game whooped some serious ass. Not to mention it was the first game we saw Mario in (if i'm not mistaken).

Joust IS the fattest game ever, than double dragon.

Missle Command was too cool for words

qphox · Post by **qphox** » 29 Jul 2003 09:34

Oh MAN! I totally forgot about Joust!

Man, my bad. My bad indeed.

Yeah, my friend Christian also pointed out to me that I missed Defender.

I liked battlezone... But I hate tempest and all it's clones!that game just sucks... for me

Rob · Post by **Rob** » 30 Jul 2003 01:13

Joust > All

Tempest is teh suck!

But the greatest games of all time, is a toss up between Commander Keen and Jazz Jackrabit. I don't know if that pertains to this thread in any way...but...come on!

Tom Hall is the MAN. If you do not know who Tom Hall is, please take this opportunity to repeatedly bash your face with your mouse.

John Romero too, but only slightly less cool than Tom Hall.

The greatest thing about Commander Keen was its total randomness when it came to secrets. There would be a "corridor" that's like 64 sprites long, and like...ceiling sprite number 37 would be a secret with a free life and a donut in it.

Ingenious.

Note: I've decided like this Avatar more than Quincy.
