Space Invaders

A friend of mine heard me talk about the desparity in video game graphics from “when I was a boy” to “now.” When I was growing up we played Asteroids (which was in black and white) and Space Invaders (while, though fun, the animation left a bit to be desired).

Sooo, he sent me this “Space Invaders” web-link. Check it out:

    Greg, were you a competitive “gamer” back in the day . . . or even today?!?!?!?

    I think I’ve always been pretty competitive at everything I do :-)
