Looking at the Stats section on Typepad today I became quite surprised.
My posts about 80's computer games - retro games collection and Atari box covers gallery, appear as 2nd and 3rd results on MSN search for "80's computer games".
Really! Here's the regular search output:

I'm quite clueless how it achieved such a high rank, as there are so many pro sites about this lovely field, as well as some serious blogs (like Urban Retro Lifestyle). Only thing I can think of is that MSN's engine gives an over weight to Technorati tags...otherwise this is very wierd.

This is quite hillarious. A bit hysterical even.
Thanks to Steve Rubel's frequent links roll, I found this cool nostalgy 80's PC/console/arcade games site. Just pick a game for play, in Flash or Java flavours.
Most of the remakes are really nice (Sonic, SF2), and just fun to play. A great treasure indeed.
Then on PC, now on web and mobiles.
Like the attitude? You might enjoy this nice Retro Filmloop
