That was the only fun game we had on the Apple II, my dad insisted on us playing Number Munchers and Reader and Writer Rabbit.



Can't find any screenies of the Rabbit games...I also remember QBert but I never knew how to play it...

I used to play that game on my Sinclair Spectrum:



Now *that* was a computer. I think I've never been quite so close to becoming religious as back then, since successfully loading games from a cassette involved a lot of praying.

Ahhh, happy days...

I had Ghostbusters on my //e.

You had drive yer car to the building where the ghosts are. Then the ghost would fly around on the top of the screen real fast and you had your two guys kinda inch forward and try to keep him still, then release the trap.

"Ghostbusters! Aaaaahahahahahaha!" <-- When I first played the game that scard the SH*T out of me.

Ah. The Sinclair. I remember that my memory would fall off the back while typing on it, making it crash. How efficient!!

Never beat ghost busters. There was that Stay Puft Marshmellow man that would slowly inch towards you and as a 7 year old I would always get smooshed by his foot. Whatever happened after that? How did the game end?

That would be too violent for a game today...
