Anyone seen g4 networks starcade
Ed ONeill:
Ok so the other night I woke up and couldn't go to sleep and while surfing the new digital cable . I found a network that I didn't even know I had G4 for those of you who don't know is a television station for video gammers
Anyways the show starcade was on sometime around 4 am. I nearly fell out of my chair I have never heard or saw this show before. It was produced in the mid 80's . I am not 100% sure because the roman numeral date thing flashed to quickly.
Anyways there are 2 teams and they play real arcade games the highest score wins the round . there are 3 rounds . The winner plays a bonus round to win aa arcade game for their home .One of the games they played was atari's crystal castles.
I thought this show was cool and thought I would point it out to people in case they have never seen it before. I would also like to hear about some of the other episodes you may have seen .
The show airs 2 times daily from what I have seen.

I remember this show! It used to air on TBS, or maybe USA network, about 4pm. I used to run home from school to catch it. There's a whole website with various clips from the show, some of the prizes bring back a lot of memories.
The theme music has a big chunk borrowed from Xevious, IIRC...

The best part of that show is the host.
Man is he clueless!

I remeber watching this show as a kid too. Had no idea it was still on, but I don't think DirecTV has the G4 network, I've never heard of it.
