HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA!!! I had pong! The sheer simplicity and entertainment value was outstanding. I still think the best classic game is asteroids.

It's only THE first video game, circa '74, screen looks like a ping pong table, and basically, that's what your playing. :)

Frogger was good fun. Pong just makes me go "no". No, Pong, no.
