Best thing since sliced bread.

And there is also Stella for the 2600 and Nesticle for Nintendo

I have them all, I might be an old fogie @34 but I think new games just suck, Yeah they are visually much better but they are just not fun. The end started with Mortal Kombat, Instead of making video games for the fun value, they went for the shock value.

Whooooops! ZORK/Adventure rates up there with my top ones as well. :-)

Adventure was the very first computer game I ever played. That was on an IBM-360 Mainframe. :-)

I disagree. Nintendo is still making high quality games that are family-appropriate. In fact, very few games really go for shock value, the ones that do just get alot of attention. The thing is, though, as graphics have improved, more 'realistic' games have gotten more graphic simply because it fits better with the style.
