Topic: I can't get this out of my head

It's like both the best and worst thing ever.

In my Sinistar induced madness, I also found this little gem: I Hunger, therefore I Live.

I also can't get it out of my head.  The worst part is I have no idea who Sinistar is.

Isn't Sinistar an old arcade game?

Every time I hear/read "Sinistar" I think of "Monstar" from Silverhawks.

Anyone that's actually played that game deserves... I don't know... a cookie.  Or something.  Wasn't it originally on Atari?

I've played it.  It's really hard.

I'm not sure if it was Atari first or second.  It was an arcade game.

I'm not sure that I ever actually plated Sinistar.  In any case, that YTMND was fascinating.  I couldn't look away.

Williams.  Interesting.  I do remember the Atari incarnation.

I tried the Shockwave applet link at the bottom of that page, but I can't get past a missing "xtra" named "Arcade Emulator 2".  It can't find it; I can't find it.

People... don't go out of your way to play this game... it's not good.  I guess it's good to laugh at the stupid "I hunger!"

[Cobra951]

It's just curiosity.  But you're right.  If it's going to take a lot of effort to set it up, it's not worth it.  Very little from the era is worth it.

"Monstar of Limbo, give me the might! The muscle! The menace! of MONSTARRRRR!!!!!!"

Heh. I always think of Monstar when I hear Sinistar too. Damn, Silverhawks was awesome.

The best thing to come out of the game was Sinistar himself. Really though, that's like complaining about finding a diamond in a lump of coal.

BEWARE I LIVE!
RUN, COWARD!
I HUNGER!

Heh.  Found a Midway compilation for the SNES which includes Sinistar.

Heh. I was think of Monstar when I hear Sinistar too. Damn, Silverhawks was awesome.

Silverhawks kicked ass! It was like Thunder Cats in space!
