Q*Bert was one of my favorite games to play on my Atari 2600 when I was a kid so seeing this flash remake, flash*bert, made me giddy.  It's not the same experience without the Atari joysticks that cramp up your hands, but still a fun game to play.

Here are five television game shows from the 70s and 80s -- the good, the bad and the ugly.

Press Your Luck
Hosted by Peter Tomarken, Press Your Luck is a game show cult classic.  Contestants collected spins by answering various trivia questions and then used the spins on an 18-space gameboard, which was full of cash and prizes.  Whomever collected the most in cash and prizes won the game.   The show is best known for the infamous Whammy, which would take all of your cash and prizes if you landed on one on the gameboard.  "No whammy.  No whammy.  Stop!"  Link to game show clip.

Love Connection
Love Connection was hosted by Chuck Woolery in the 80s and made a brief return in the 1998 - 1999 season, hosted by Pat Bullard.  In the show, a single tried to find his or her best match among three men or women.  The audience would also vote for whom they thought would make the best match for the contestant. 

Here is a classic video clip of a man named Robert Baker who thinks women are turned on by his barking.

Ten students at UCSC created a four-storey 6400 Post-It Notes Donkey Kong scene on the E2 building on campus.  It took 5 hours to create.
