A forgotten piece of Atari history just resurfaced: The Ford Simulator from 1987! This bizarre driving game, created by Ford to promote their lineup, was made for MS-DOS and rediscovered by retro fans — and it's delightfully weird. But that's not all... We’re also diving into Billy Mitchell’s latest lawsuit win, where a YouTuber now owes him over $230,000, AND breaking down the labor tension at ZeniMax, the studio behind Fallout and Doom, as workers threaten to strike under Microsoft’s trillion-dollar banner. If you love Atari, retro games, weird lost titles, and retro gaming drama — this is your video. ?

Defend cities around the world from an airborne alien attack. This is a remake of the '70s arcade game, and features 3d graphics, counter-strike capabilities, new enemies & power-ups, and multiplayer functionality. Play is available in a Classic mode, which has only minorly retouched gameplay. Ultimate mode has new graphics, locations, and other upgrades. Not that Jon would know any of that because he's NEVER played it! In this video, we fire up the 1999 PS1 Missile Command for the first time and see what it has to offer. #atari #missilecommand #playstation #genxgrownup - SHOP https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00001QHWI?tag=genxgrownup-20 http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS

A new official entry in Namco's Dig Dug series was recently released on Android and iOS, with the catch being that it is only going to be available for two weeks. Dig Dug New Frontier is described as a "modern take on the classic arcade game" and is a collaboration between the Australian game developer Spunge Games (part of Liquid Animation), Bandai Namco, and interactive media platform Gamisodes. It was released on June 17th and is being offered as a playable title on the Gamisodes app until June 30th, at which point it will be removed (presumably never to return; we've reached out to a spokesperson for the devs to try and clarify this). Gamisodes, in case you've never heard of it (and we don't blame you!), is a media app that is pitching itself as the "Netflix of Interactive TV Shows". It features a library of interactive television shows that combine animation with simple gameplay tailored towards a younger audience. @bandainamcoentertainment @gamisodes #retrogaming #mobile #arcade #genxgrownup - LINKS Time Extension Article » https://www.timeextension.com/news/2025/06/a-new-dig-dug-game-has-just-been-released-but-its-only-playable-for-2-weeks - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com
