I can never forget the first time I played games such as Beauty and the Beast, Dracula, Astrosmash, Demon Attack and Lock n Chase. The graphics were so much better than all the Atari games I had played at friends houses. I remember my Dad and his friends being hooked on the boxing game. From what I recall, the Imagic games always seemed to have the games with the best graphics. Intellivision was my first gaming console as well (5 yrs old).

Whoo, I just realized I was a Atari fanboy :P Oh well. Im with you on the "no split screen" rule. I lug my 29" old crt tv all over. It isnt that bad but in the future I will have to force myself to clean my car if I ever want to lug a 32" lcd tv around. ps - Goldeneye 007 for life!

When xbox released Intellivision Lives I was one of the first idiots to run out and pay $50 for it thinking it would be one of the hottest things ever. The only games on it I really liked were Shark! Shark! and Frog Bog... all my favorites weren't even there... and to make it worse, within a month the game was selling in stores for $20. Definitely one of those "what was I thinking" moments! Lilly... wow... yeah... that would be great if you read this... remember me? probably not... thanks!

LOL ... Love those old pictures. Do you still have your Intellivision? And more importantly, I wonder if Lilly will read this. :) Those certainly were some interesting graphics back in the day, huh?
