What's the first film you were taken to see as a kid? Believe it or not, mine was Paint Your Wagon (1969) with Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood when I was 3 years old. Umm I don't think my parents really chose that one for me somehow! I blame my father wholeheardedly for any subsequent Clint Eastwood fixation. |

What was the last truly scary horror film you saw? I grew up on Hammer House of Horror & Stephen King books which explains a lot but I just don't think films are scary these days? |

What is the best night out watching the big match ever? I had a fab time the night of the England-Germany semi final of Euro 96, sadly we lost after a string of nail biting penalties but the drunkenness in Nottingham market square afterwards (including a whole array of boys showing me their st george cross boxers in the street!) made up for it :D |

Some of the stuff about old controllers reminded me of this little baby I got when I was seven. Typical pong variants were all the rage in those days and I loved it for all it's square-balled 2 colour rubishness.
I seem to remember drawing a very detailed picture of it playing on the telly next to the christmas tree when I went back to School in January. Sad.
Talking of sad, I never did get that Atari 2600 either. Time for ebay...

I HAD ONE OF THESE!!
Ahem* sorry, got a little over-excited there. Anyway, I'd almost forgotten about it til now.
and what a horrible noise it was too
And with multiple speeds! Looks like you could spend a few good hours trying to master the perfect setup. Did the sound come out of the on board speakers?
