"Kaboom!" for the Atari 2600 - Surprised Face Easter Egg

Not entirely sure if it's an "easter egg", but if you break 10,000 points on the Atari 2600 version of Kaboom! by Activision, the bombers expression changes and he has a "surprised" face.

Sorry about the out of sync sound and poor video quality.

Excellent, man. I know that guys like you and others here have gotten to 10K and higher but I've never gotten past around 6K. I've only played the game on and off over the years though, after a while my eyes start to kinda freak out if I play it too long, haha, seriously!

I always wanted to see the surprised face so thanks for putting this up for us :)

Thanks!

The key to doing well is recognizing and responding to the different waves. It's 50% thinking, and 50% not thinking.

This has got to be one of the great accomplishments in video games. I had this game and it is HARD. I dont know if your playing with a paddle but I couldn't get anywhere near 10000. Down to one bucket twice and you didnt lose your nerve. awesome

Excuse my language but this is the 3 words that came to my mind when I got to the one minute mark: "HOW the FUCK..."
