 RR> What was your favorite game in the original Epyx Games Series?

 RR> Sumer Games
 RR> Summer Games II
 RR> Winter Games
 RR> World Games
 RR> California Games

I liked a mix of games from them.  I liked hackey sack and disc toss in
California Games, Hot dog and bobsled in Winter Games, and pole vault / diving
in Summer Games.

I never cared for the games where you had to wiggle the joystick back and forth
nearly breaking your gear.

Having the original EPYX controller playing these games on the C64 seems like
the best way to play them.  I also enjoyed BMX on the Atari 2600.
Convolution BBS - Convolution.us

...Strange game.  The only winning move is not to play.
