32:00 I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Japanese-American. Male. So, you have an idea about what video games I grew up playing. I was never great at Joust. Maybe, I could get up to the early teen waves, with 2 Egg Waves. Why was THIS seemingly the easiest place to defeat the Pterydachtyl? Slightly over 50% of the time, I'd see people actually defeat the bird. Any other time, it was like forget it. Also, no shock, considering the advanced juncture of the game, killing all 3 PTs, cost him a life. I guess it's an ok tradeoff, if you got an extra life every 20,000 points.
@EricPetersen292210 ай бұрын
I was never great either, I loved it tho. I I played defender and Robotron like the joust in this video, I was born in 66, perfect age for these games
@unappealingundesirable282610 ай бұрын
@@EricPetersen2922 For these video games, you were of a great age! When I was 10-11, you were 17-19, and it's amazing how much every year of age, at that juncture in life, makes so much difference in "video games smarts" that we have. You probably got Defender and Robotron down very quickly and well! I never was good at Defender. Maybe, I could get to Wave 4, but I'd have so few humanoids left, and unlike a more skilled player like you, I wasn't good at saving Smart Bombs. At least, in Defender, even I knew that, when some later stages started, and there were like 3 or 4 Pods, to just use the Smart Bomb, and get rid of them (and get the 1000 points). I always wondered why Swarmers were only worth 150 points, as they were hard as heck to kill!

Here's what my wisecrack wasn't about playing this game: You'd better hurry up before the pterodactyl arrives. Did you also notice that MST3K {Mystery Science Theater 3000} never had a video game of its own? Since the Sci-fi series features the deadpan janitor Joel Robinson, his 2 robot buddies: Tom Servo and Crow, fling these wisecracks at the very worst sci-fi flicks ever made. The mad scientist plays these flicks to crush the deadpan janitors soul. In this case: I find that kind of ridiculous of what the mad scientist does.

Somehow, at the beginning of kindergarten, age 5, I was able to repeatedly make it to level 99, then it repeats and goes back to level 89 forever. I wish I'd remembered what my score was, I could've gone forever because I'd figured out the precise spots you can stand depending on each platform arrangement. I suppose that might not have been too advanced for a 5 year old to figure out, but my older brothers were perplexed as hell and no one at school ever believed me
