    The graphics, sound, and voice clips are quite impressive for 1985. And Atari was quite humorous with their arcade games back in the 80's.

    The slight diagonal aspect always ruined me when I made it to the training course at the end of each level. I could never line up the ramps with the bike. Still loved the game though. Also love those great atari system 2 sounds they used on several of their games in the late 1980's.

    Does anyone remember getting on the Grand Slam leaderboard without actually completing all 7 days? As I remember it, when you do the Training Course section, if you hit the exact spot at the end, just to the right of the yellow line where the grass is, you could continue on to another Training Course, and keep doing so over and over, and it would increase your score exponentially, automatically putting you on the Grand Slam leaderboard. I'm not sure if it was an intentional cheat but it was fun either way.

    • @kellybanning2013
      @kellybanning2013 ปีที่แล้ว

      I kinda remember something like that, but I do remember if you finish any of the obstacle courses, and ride in between the grandstand and to the left of it, you can go further and then when you go to the next day, the screen colors go bonkers, and maybe when you finish the game, you might get that award you're talking about.

      @CastleVanity "Kids these days..." Ah yes, a classic retort.
      My point was that I'm here to watch the gameplay, not the demo. It's different if I was actually in an arcade and was watching the demo to see what I was going to throw a quarter into before I played.
      But thanks to youtube and the internet of things, I can watch the actual game being played before I decide to play it. Which is part of the reason these videos are uploaded to begin with.
