for those of you who get the opb channel, or maybe even other states public broadcasting channel, i saw that there was a special on arcades and how the industry is booming again.  it's this thursday supposively at 9pm, but you might want to check online to make sure it is that time and day.  just thought some people might be interested.

Ummm what is the NAME of the show? I checked my guide and there's shows I'm not familiar with, any of which might be doing the special.

Anyone know?

I played the arcade quizz on that site, and this how it scored one of my questions:

What highly addictive puzzle game designed by a Russian programmer features Russian buildings, dancers and music?
Puzzled
Tetris   <-- This was your answer!
The Russian Front
Boulder Dash   <-- This was the correct answer!

Is that right?

[RayB]

NO. That's not right.


Weird.
But thank you so much for the links!

I wouldn't even bother... the show wasn't that good.  I was very disappointed.
