Does anyone else save their old membership cards? I guess this counts as a collection. Let’s see em!

Quite likely before your time - but it charted fairly well IIRC.  Although initially classed as disco it was actually one of the progenitors of Hi-NRG.  I suspect just about anyone of my generation would instantly recognize it from even a few seconds even if they had not seen the movie.  The movie was generally well received and did well at the box office.

 

Looks like it reached #33 on the charts.

 Pitchfork magazine said “It's impossible to overstate, let alone list, the amount of composers and films who've ripped off 'Chase'.

My goal was not to create a comprehensive list, but to make poll of everyone’s top 3… I think I got a lot of the biggest hits, obviously not all of them…

I don't know if a song I've never heard of before would be considered "iconic"

updated the poll

I was going to try to post videos for all of them.. but it's too many!

Here's the story behind Regulate:

Jim Carrey came out retirement for this?!

I never really got into pitfall...for Jungle adventures, I found the vine swinging in Jungle Hunt more satisfying and when it came to mapping routes and racing against the clock, I was much more partial to Private Eye.

I usually get back a lot for child tax credits... but then what I owe on my magic income will chip away at that somewhat.

Golden Axe?

I actually thought of Hugo's House of Horrors but wasn't confident enough to make a guess.

Laser Blast for 2600... It's fun for 5 minutes... but to roll the score you have to marathon it for hours and hours... just mindless laser blasting... it's the "Desert Bus" of space shooters. sometimes you'll let yourself get shot down just to break up the monotony, which is not a big deal since you get bonus lives so easily.

This was one my friends favorite games so it was hyped up for me a lot. I liked it, but it didn't really grab me enough to finish it.

GTA3

I never played it. I used to be interested when it was new but that ship has probably sailed to be honest. But I guess I shouldn’t say “never”.

what game is this? I can't find info online from the picture.

Zoo Keeper for the Pico-8... I linked to it in my previous post.

only at a very basic level... I know animals coming out of a gap will run in the opposite direction from you, so you can use that to try and get the majority going in the same direction.

broke 100k! Now trying for 200k

"Is there any risk of brain damage?"

"Technically speaking, the procedure IS brain damage..."

Great music and visuals. The ninja gaiden wall jumping stuff is cool. I made it to the final bosses but never beat them.

I'm glad Shadow of the Colossus has you following the direction the light glints off your sword, rather than a floating green arrow pointing where to go. 

its got a nice variety of objectives: trying to group the animals so you can jump over a bunch at once, rebuilding the walls, collecting the bonus items.

My current goal is to break 100k. Right now I can get in the 80-90 range.

love it

New Hampshire is today... if she doesn't get at least better than 30% there's not much point in sticking it out... but she'll be gone after Super Tuesday at the latest.
