    Are you serious? Like an Atari 2600? And it's plugged in and working?

    You know that Pong goes for some serious dough to Classic Game Collectors!

    Yeah, a 2600. I haven't played the Atari in awhile. It had a small glitch with a connection somewhere, but it worked and it's easily repairable. I also have games for it. Yeah, we know the Pong is worth some money. It's actually my roommates though. I don't think the Coleco is worth much. I could be wrong though.

    I played all the videogames based or SK related.

    I work in GAMELOFT, a videogame company, and I always said it's the best job I ever had. I've been playing videogames since I have a memory (2-3 years) and had my first computer when I was 9.

    As for the preferences, I'm a huge fan of the graphic adventures, such as Maniac Mansion, The Secret of Monkey Island (all except the 4th, which is really poor) and well...all the Lucas Film/Arts adventures.

    I would love to see some screen shots of these classic King games.

    I've been playing video games for a long time as well, but can't remember seeing most of these. Of course, I played console based games and I see some of these are for PCs.

    I play my NES and SNES on a daily basis. That's kind of why I wanted to see some screen shots.

    How the heck to you manage all the connections?
    Between cable, and PS3 and my phone via internet - I can hardly stand all the wires.
    I can't imagine having other stuff hooked in there !

    I have several av selector switches rigged to my tv. I can play NES, SNES, Genesis, PS 2, Gamecube, and PS 3 without having to unplug anything. I just need to click a button and remember which console goes to it.

    I highly recommend it. The retro emulators just aren't the same as playing the actual consoles. Plus, the games are crazy cheap and just as fun as ever in most cases. I'll take a picture of it later, perhaps, and try to post it in the video games thread.

    Does anyone have something to add, or archive?
    Should online games like Discordia be listed?

    Last week we launched an update of MONOLOCO which included two references to Stephen King.

    The scenario is called 2012 and it's a devastated city after...well, the end of the world. And if you take a close look to the background:

    Just a question : what is the business model if you give free apps? Ads in them? In game items to buy...?

    The MIST by Stephen King AngelSoft NEW

    Undoubtedly one of the best IF titles from Angelsoft, Stephen King's The Mist is based on a famous short story by the world's leading horror author Stephen King. The choice of "The Mist" out of all other short stories is quite appropriate, because it is faster-paced and more exciting than most other stories. A brief plot: a strange and deadly mist takes over the small town of Bridgton, near Long Lake, on 17th of July. Some survivors take shelter in a Federal market, but discover they are not safe inside, because the mist is not just mist - it's alive and after them! The game itself follows the short story very closely, so anyone who has read it already knows the ending. The goal, of course, is to find a way to destroy the mist and save the town from being devoured. Puzzles are straightforward and fun, and even exciting because of the constant time limit and atmospheric writing. The game does have one badly designed puzzle near the endgame, where you must kill a creature with your gun. The outcome of each shot is randomized, so you must save and restore numerous times to succeed. Worse, the game gives no hint about this random element, so you may assume that shooting isn't the right solution and try to do something else. This gripe aside, this is a great action-packed adventure that King fans and IF veterans alike will enjoy.
