Ichor Posted June 30, 2003 Well, now it can be again, with 3D Pong, the way Pong was meant to be. There are two rules to the game: 1 - Don't miss 2 - See rule 1 The only quirk I've seen is that the computer gets 40 points each time it wins, while you get 20. However, it does make it more challenging. My record so far is 515. 0 Share this post Link to post

Tyockell Posted June 30, 2003 I'v never played it before and if its addictive then Im not gunna start. 0 Share this post Link to post
Epyo Posted June 30, 2003 Yeah, but some people like curveball better than this. But I kinda like this better, cause it's faster. Just got 315 poang! 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted June 30, 2003 I've played that before. It starts out very slow and kind of boring, but it gets better by about the fourth level. I've only gotten to level nine once, but usually end up losing by about level seven. For some reason, it just doesn't have the same appeal as 3D Pong. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gokuma Posted June 30, 2003 4 player Pong Sports for Atari is still cool. So is Warlords for it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ichor Posted July 1, 2003 I haven't actually played Pong in the arcades. I played it on the Atari 2600 as part of Video Olympics. I also played some of the variants, especially Breakout (and my favorite out of those is Arkanoid). 0 Share this post Link to post

AndrewB Posted July 2, 2003 Curveball is the best Pong game. Made it to level 9 without losing a ball several times. Scored over 38,000 points once. Hint: Make the game run as slowly as possible. 0 Share this post Link to post

Nanami Posted July 2, 2003 How come the computer gets 40 points for scoring and you only get 20? 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted July 2, 2003 I'm not sure. It's a minor annoyance, but I just think of it as a bigger challenge to actually beat the computer. 0 Share this post Link to post
Nanami Posted July 2, 2003 Usually the scores for me are like 130 to 760. =P 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted July 2, 2003 You'll win if you can get anything just over 400 points. 0 Share this post Link to post
BlueSonnet Posted July 3, 2003 Ah those were the days. Qubert, pong, and many other atari classics spring to mind (forgotten the names of most of them though). 0 Share this post Link to post
