They also might consider updating their wardrobes, hairstyles, and cameras.

Photo is actually of a WWII era Situation Room. They would plan ship, troop, or aircraft movements and stratigies on large maps with little models. So for an honest answer: Nope, never seen it.

I'm mostly a boardgamer....and have played games with lots of little bits that you push around on a map. Sometimes they're cardboard counters, sometimes plastic, and sometimes metal painted miniatures.

Never on a map quite that big though...but 4'x8' isn't uncommon for a miniature game.

LOL Monk! I can see it now - hundreds of Dev's pushing ships around with sticks (They got tired with some so they stuck some of them on a circle string - those are the ships that just keep circling)

No wonder they have no time to fix imbalences and bugs!

(Looks around for the Commodore VIC 20... that 5k of memory and Tape Loading Drive - s-w-eet )

I'm willing to bet I've got you both beat.

Get off my lawn, punks!

I remember my pong, 64, and atari. Gas was under a buck. The good old days.

Umm......ok..... xD

LOL, the expensive gas was .99!!! now, sad to say I pay 4.20 a gal

Oregon Trails on the commodore!!! Pitfall on the atarri and wow, dare I say......the original C: prompt for any commands?!?

Some sort of grappling glitch.

I can remember the old commodores in the schools, I owned an atari and I actually learned dos from my mom, on a computer that was actually a huge keyboard that plugged into the TV .... ROFL

Yeah... not sure about good, but definitely old

oh dear me, C Prompt.....let me go get my cane now you whipper snappers!

Better yet, let's just start the fossil dig now.

I feel like everyones gran now. May as well just go check in on the sea monkeys

I'm still waiting for my x-ray glasses to show up in the mail. And my memory must be starting to go, because I don't recall what this thread was about. I've really got to stop going off topic.
