hehehe....me too....I used to love this one game on atari that had a criminal in black/white striped suit dropping bombs and you are this table w/ a bunch of glasses of water trying to catch them before they hit the ground and blow up....it's one of my 1st video game experiences from my youth.
ABout this forum: Great idea! I've wanted to see this for a while, after seeing all of the Madden ?'s that popped up on the general topic forum......I'm sure I'll have a few ?'s regarding that game in the future....I'm officially hooked on it

That game was sweeeet!
I enjoyed that game also, Bucky - it's in my top 8 old-school wood-grained game storage case
Along with that can be found Missile Command, Space Invaders, Basketball, Vanguard, Ms. Pac Man, Megamania, and my all-time favorite, Target Fun (aka Air-Sea Battle). I can tool anyone on game setting #12

You would be referring to that great Activision paddle game, Kaboom. I saw a guy at college who was absolutely unstoppable at that game. He could easily get over 10000 points at any time. The bombs were going so fast - I have no idea how anyone can even process the twisting paddle motion at that speed.
