The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

"Trog" - the old Dino NES game

I was recently reminded of an old 1990 Nintendo game I used to own, called "Trog."  I mention it because it was dinosaur-themed.  :lol

It was a one- or two-player Pac-Man style game where each player had to collect all of the eggs of their colour, while avoiding various hazards on the level, including cavemen who tried to eat you, tarpits, water, and really deep holes.  

The attached file includes a few screenshots of the game.  Anyone else remember this awesome game?  :lol
I didn't play far enough in to take screenshots of the later levels, which get very interesting (cavemen that can jump, maps with different shapes, doors, other fun stuff).  There are (I think) 50 levels and (I think again  :p ) 3 bonus games in total.

Vaugely.

The dino-themed Nintendo game I mostly remember was actually for Super Nes and it was called "Radical Rex" (a fun game).

Never played that one. God I don't know what it is but very old graphics freak me out, like Nintendo mainly. I don't know why but there's something about it that bothers me so much. Odd...
