Now HERE's a duo I'm pretty sure I haven't done yet. But once upon a time I happened to have both of these on 5-inch disks from my secret illegal source guy, Gob dless him... I mean, her... I mean, them. I've said too much already. ANYWAY, I finally tracked them down on
Atarimania and on
Mushca - the Activision one is on disk 37 and the other is on disk 226... aw, does he like the Activision one better therefore? I think so. But yes, the short answer is the Activision one clearly kicks more ass. Better, smoother graphics... that's about it. But both involve the same movement of the joystick. You move left, then right, then left again, and repeat until you get to the line, and you gotta press the button at the right time, maybe hold it. Personally, I prefer my video games to be a little more fantastical. I'm a nerd! What do I care about athletics? I wanna be a Pac-Man and binge eat everything! I wanna shoot invaders from space, in alien or asteroid form or, more domestically, bugs and the mushrooms they use as barriers! But I will give a shout-out to my best friend from middle school... we parted ways in high school... who kicked my ass at the big Activision 1500 meter dash ;) Miss ya, buddy. You'll get another computer job soon! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. Yes, it's those kinds of memories you try to push out of your brain, until you give up and accept them for the secret treasures they are. Besides, you'd just replace them with worse mistakes anyway.
