Activision Classics - Stampede

ChibiFighter was probably waiting for this one. I think Stampede was the first game I played in this collection. I think, but it might have been Pitfall, too. My uncle and I had some trouble when trying to rope some the dogies (cattle) when we played this. Come to think of it, I still have a bit of trouble today. It seems that there's wide "hit detection" for the rope.

why does it sound weird, is it on a Atari 2600 emulator or another system other then Atari?

[OceanBlueKirby]

"Yes" applies for both of those alternatives. This footage was recorded from the A Collection of Activision Classic Games for the Atari 2600 compilation disk (which contains emulator technology for the system) for the original Sony PlayStation.

It looks good for the time, but its funny how they drew four seperate legs moving back and forth instead of animating them like a real running animal silhouette.

[OceanBlueKirby]

It's not clearly seen due to the quality of the video, but the legs are also segmented. It's the Atari 2600's graphics, after all, so not much can be expected or available for the technology, but I do agree they still look good for circa 1981.

I have this game!!!

[TheLogicJunkie]

I used to own this game, and I played it forever...

[Keranu]

YES, I was hoping you would comment on that because I wasn't sure if you had this game or not!

[TootTootTheriotBus]

Yes, you have.

I own this and I know you have played it with me at least once.

[Keranu]

I know I've seen this game many times, but not sure if I've ever actually played it. Looks really fun though.
