Mad Dog McCree for the win!

Mad Dog Macree was cool... but it wasn't as cool as SPACE ACE. Or that game w/ the bent screen to make it look like a hologram. I think it was TIME TRAVELER.

Smashing rolls of caps with a hammer...those were the days (of deafness).

I've got the the 20th anniversary editions of both Dragon's Lair games and Space Ace on DVD. They work quite well on a regular player.

The memories...

I had a set of Lazer Tag guns (still around somewhere); and I also had the original NES with the gyroscope and Robbie the Robot--does anyone remember that? It also came with Duckhunt/Super Mario Bros.

Over here most of the people that play and doesnt play call paintball with the name of gotcha. Why it is called like that?

His location is in his profile.....real yourself back in as anymore attacks like that and you will be looking in from the sidelines....MarkM

If I remember, the Gotcha commercial featured former NFL football quarterback Jim McMahon as a spokesman. I think one featured him lounging on a float in the middle of a pool at what we were to believe was his mansion. He would be shooting at things with his Gotcha gun, and his butler would come out and get shot, too. Ahh, the good ol' days.

Oh, man, now I'm having flashbacks to that game and duck hunt.

Garbage Pale Kids... those are still classics.

I'm in the middle of packing up my house for another move, and I found about 200 or so that I had from when I was a kid. Anyone remember the "Garbage Kids Pals" movie?

I still have the Garbage Pails Kids movie on VHS in my vast collection of movies from the 80s. I also had every single card, in multiples, along with all of the posters that you had to assemble. Of course, those all got thrown out somehow. They actually sell reissues, as well as a newer line of cards illustrated by various artists, including some of the artists from MAD magazine.
