This (hopefully regular) feature is very cool.

 

This week my favourite was Donkey Kong Retired. :) All the rest were great  but I didnt get acouple of them... who/what are Tapper and Moogle? :)

 

Tapper is the name of an old video game where the object is to fill beer mugs for customers. Great game. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapper

 

The Moogle is from Final Fantasy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moogle

Thanks. I think might have actually played Tapper or at least a Flash version of it.

 

EDIT:Yep, I've definitely played it. Thanks for the link.

I would have said Donkey Kong if he had painted the Gorilla head instead of copy&pasting it.. but Tapper a winner is

Aaron did paint it. No copy and pasting there. He's also responsible for my avatar.

This only means he is a great painter becouse the animal part was mistaken to be real :aiee:)

Dang! My appologies then :dancing: It does look exactly like a photo of a gorilla head at this resolution, the rendering and light is spooky.

It's impossible to pick a winner: I remember playing Donkey Kong and Q*Bert in the arcade ... ... in the late seventies? :o

Is it just me, or has it been edited to add some of the game titles? I'm sure they weren't there when first posted :p

 

Well, saves me googling for the characters. Looks great... remember playing Q*bert and Tapper way back in time :)

Oh, I've been meaning to inquire as to your health, gramps.

Donkey Kong makes me virile and strong! Besides, Eldar is older than me.
