    Any Atari 2600 fans may want to check out the Atari 2600 Show on Youtube.

    Every episode, a new Atari 2600 game is chosen, and you can participate by sending in photos of your score for the game that week.

    I came in 3rd place on Atari 2600 Pac-Man (I am mentioned on the show as "Serious Atari", which is my name on Facebook).

    T-Bone Pearson is the guy who does the show. If you send in your score, let him know I sent you, and that you heard about it on GameOgre!

    If you don't have an Atari 2600 and want to participate, you can download the Stella emulator here.

    Atarimania has every Atari 2600 game in one download (that you can play with Stella here).

    Of course, playing with a real Atari 2600 is better, but Stella is a way to get in on the game if you don't have one.

    Nice, I went through all my old retro systems a few days ago and apparently I am missing that one. Got the Pacman cartridge for it, but not the system lol. However, the main Auction I go to has been having a lot of old systems and games for sale there so it is still possible:).

    Wish I would have known a few weeks ago.. I just unloaded a few spare 2600s I had.. (I tend to accumulate them, as I buy large lots of Atari stuff on eBay to get at a few rare items.)

    Next time I get a spare one, I'll send it to you, if you want it.

    Hi CrownKnight,

    Thanks for asking.

    This is what you do:

    1. Play your game and record a video of your gameplay, or take a photo of your final score.

    2. Include your username in the photo, if possible. You can write your username on a piece of paper like this:

    [​IMG]

    3. Upload your video to Youtube, or your photo to a site like Imgur

    4. Search for the game you played on highscore.com (or request it, if you can't find it, and I will add it)

    5. Provide your score and link it to your photo or video to prove you did it.

    After you do this, everyone on the site will vote on whether or not they believe your score. When the voting is over, if it passes, it will be added to the database.

    If your score is the highest so far for that game, it will be broadcast out over Twitter and Facebook to thousands of people.

    Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
