James WhitmoreImproving your hand-eye coordination

The first arcade game I ever played was Space Wars.  It was in a game room at a campground near Zanesville while we were camping.  Space Invaders, Asteroids, Centipede, Defender and Pacman are other arcade games I played back in the 80's.  I never really cared too much for Donkey Kong.  But my absolute favorite game from the 80's is Tempest.  Great vector graphics, lots of color, fast pace, fantastic sound and simple controls and play (if it moves, kill it)


Our first home system was Pong.  Later came the Atari 2600 and IntellivisionBreakout, Battlezone, Dig Dug, Frogger, Q*bert, Pitfall, Zaxxon and Pole Position.  I didn't get into Burgertime.  Right now I'm running both a PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3.  Racing games are my favorite.
