Old video games introduced many of the basic concepts and genres that are still used today, which were refined over time. Platformer shooters still exist for example – see Cuphead. Beat-em-ups still exist as well, such as Super Crush K.O. or even The Wonderful 101, both of which put original twists on that genre’s style of gameplay. There are also the games which are credited with birthing or popularizing a genre, such as Wizardry or Ultima, among the earliest dungeon crawlers and RPGs in existence.
To a modern gamer, playing the oldest examples of such genres might be like watching the movie Halloween or TV show Seinfeld – the ideas that they pioneered have since been copied and refined many times over, so much so that the progenitors look bland by comparison.
But some old games tried ideas that were not only original, but not truly copied since. Final Legacy, developed by Atari themselves, is a game that innovated for its time, and is based around a concept that could well be considered original by modern standards. It lacks the polish of modern games, but its originality makes it stick out both for the time and even now.

STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters… S.T..R … My friend sent this to me and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks. STROKE IDENTIFICATION: During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance) They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid’s husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the party . Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don’t die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead. It only takes a minute to read this… STROKE IDENTIFICATION: A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke…totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough. RECOGNIZING A STROKE Remember the ‘3’ steps, STR . Read and Learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions : S * Ask the individual to SMILE .. T * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (eg ‘It is sunny out today’). R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS . If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. NOTE : Another ‘sign’ of a stroke is 1. Ask the person to ‘stick’ out their tongue. 2. If the tongue is ‘crooked’, if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke. A prominent cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved. And it could be your own.
First reblog post that actually saves a life.
This is a life-saving post.
the more you know
yeah don’t think that this can’t happen to you or someone you know if they’re young. my cousin’s wife is 33 and she had a stroke last year
I’ve had a stroke. It happens to people, and the more you know about this kind of stuff, the better.Because it could be important to know.

Because I feel bad if I don’t reblog…
My mother died after being paralyzed by a stroke. Please read this^
I remember a while ago here in UK there were stroke-identifying adverts. Their catchphrase was FAST:
- F- Face: is their face fallen on one side?
- A- Arms: can they raise both their arms up and hold them there?
- S- Speech: is their speech slurred? Can they speak a full sentence?
- T- Time: if all the signs show a stroke, call 999.
We managed to save my nana with this information when she had her first stroke.
Just had a friend suffer a stroke while on vacation. She is thankfully on the mend and back home.
Always worthy of a reblog. Please take heed of this information. It could determine whether someone stays on this side of the ground or winds up on the other. 😬
