I was watching some of my favorite Blue Oyster Cult vids on YouTube and when I started up “Take Me Away” I was amazed to see someone playing Tony Suzuki’s Star Blazer on a green-screen Apple ][! WTF??? CRAZY.
I never saw this vid on MTV back in the day so this was new to me. If you want to check out more BOC vids check out “I Love The Night”.

The Starblazer part is seriously slick and Blue Oyster Cult rocks. I have to admit that I have a lot of love for the Apple II
Hi John,
I once whined about the gaming industry in one of your previous posts (as an anonymous coward) – see “Slipgate Jobs!”; right, well, I’d just like to apologise – you were right, the game industry truly “r0x0rz”
– yup, my days of “being down” on the gaming industry is truly over; besides, you’re the reason I’m churning out 16 hour days to begin with – damn dude, you are the GAME MASTER!!!
Anxiously awaiting your MMOG!
PS. You should have owned Mr Wilson & fuck what he said about your personal life – you rule, period!
Wow–I remember that game on the Apples in school. We played it with paddles–one person went up and down, the other left and right–we never did too well at it!
