A Bit More Poking Around In Poke-It Poker
I was playing a little bit of Poke-It Poker when I won several winning hands and reached a stoner number of credits:
This calls for a good celebration by getting stoned. 😛
Current Gaming Mood: Gin Rummy
I decided to check out the Gin Rummy card game made by MeggieSoft Games. Here’s what the gameplay looks like:
In order to knock in this game, you need 10 deadwood points or less after melding your cards in runs and/or ranks. The computer player will meld their cards and with some deadwood points left in their hand. You’ll get a Gin bonus if you get no deadwood points in your hand like this:
After the end of the round, the scores will show up and be given to either you or the computer for winning the round. If you reach 100 points before the computer does, you win the game!
That’s another card game added to my list of games that I really love to play. This game also lets you select kinds of sound effects, MIDI music, and it has a Speak-to-Me feature for the computer player which is cool. I rate this game 10 stars out of 10, baby!
Poking Around In Poke-It Poker!
I was playing another old video poker game called Poke-It Poker, which it has two game modes to play on:
Hooray! I finally to rack up 300 credits in this fun game, and what I like about this game is that it has sounds of a lady shouting “Cocktails!” about every 30 seconds or so while being idle. Free cocktails and this game both rule! 🙂
Old School Fun With W5Card
I was playing an old Windows card game called W5Card. Here’s a screenshot of the game:
In this card game, the player needs a pair of Jacks or better to open at the start of a new game. If the player passes, the dealer may open or pass back. If the open is passed back, the player is allowed to start the betting.
When discarding, both the player and the dealer can get up 5 new cards.
At the end of the hand, the winner is given the entire pot; the pot stays on a tie. Also, if you lose all your money to the dealer you’ll get a closing quote:
Now would be a good time to experience other attractions in Las Vegas.
– MANAGEMENT
Not gonna lie, W5Card is one fun card game. 😛
Have Some Star Control Videos
Ladies and gentlemen, I want to showcase both faction endings from Star Control for MS-DOS since nobody has done that over the years.
I really love the planet Earth in the Alliance ending because it looks beautiful in-game. See you space cowboys!
Some MS-DOS Fun with Star Control
I checked out Star Control this evening. It’s a a sci-fi war game where you play as either space alien faction, each with seven different alien spaceships that have their own maneuvering and firing characteristics. I decided to play Melee mode as both factions and successfully beaten the computer player twice on standard difficulty without losing any spaceships.
Crazy fun strategy game but what I don’t like about this game is that it has planets which can take away your current spaceship’s crew members until it explodes if you stay stuck on them. Other than that, I love this cool game! 🙂
The Solid Granite Car Adventures of Driver
I forgot to put up this Driver video last week. I found a glitch where my car is still made of solid granite just like in Carnage mode. Enjoy!
I Finally Beat Nicktoons Racing
I came back to playing Nicktoons Racing on my ePSXe emulator, and I played through the whole 3rd and final cup of the game as Stimpy. Once again I got 1st place on all four tracks down below:
The last one was a dastardly close victory because SpongeBob was trying to catch up to me but he wasn’t fast enough.
And now here come the 3rd cup final standings…
Not only did I finally win the Krusty Krab Big Bun Award, I also won a year supply of Krabby Patties.
Now let’s reveal who the mystery rider is…
It has been finally beaten with Plankton the Mystery Rider now unlocked. I’m so happy! 😀
Time To Press My Luck *again*
I was bored so I decided to torture myself with some more Press Your Luck, but this time I’m contestant #1 challenging against two new contestants named Jessica and Finn:
That means I get to play last in the final round of this game. Jessica is in second place with $1,850 and one Whammy, and Finn is in third with no money and one Whammy. Therefore; Finn plays first with 8 spins, then Jessica will play second with 5 spins. Here’s what they got so far in the final round:
Luckily for me, I managed to avoid getting a single Whammy and used up all four of my spins to stop at a couple cash values and a few prizes including a trip to the Fiji Islands and an African Safari. Hooray!
Not only did I win again, I’m finally in the Press Your Luck Hall of Fame!
All these prizes total $12,262 combined with $4,450 in cash along with $8,300 that I’ve won previously gives me a grand total of $25,012! That was fun but man, I still wish all this money was real. 🙂
It’s Time To Press Your Luck!
Last night I was playing an old computer game called Press Your Luck, which is based on an old game show starring Peter Tomarken. Here’s a screenshot of the gameplay:
As you can see, there’s lots of cash and prizes on the board, also some Whammies which will take all your money away. I was playing as Contestant #2 against two computer players in this computer game.
I managed to avoid hitting a single Whammy throughout the whole game and got a dastardly close victory with $8,300 in cash because Olivia picked up $500 + an extra spin, a Mexican cruise valued at $3,976, and a Heritage Tour valued at $2,634 which that wasn’t enough for her to win the game.
Yeah, it’s good to be the champion of this computer game. I just wish all that cash I’ve won was real because that’d be nice. 🙂
