played at the 1990 play-offs for Nintendo. He soon realized that most of these games were not based on the same concepts he was accustomed to.

You're a relic and outdated. No one remembers who you were. Get with the times, Todd."

These were the stinging words that were recently spoken to Todd Rogers, a videogame legend from the past. They are harsh words, filled with ego-deflating barbs, and they cause some serious introspection. Todd mulled them over for some time. Had all of his achievements been pointless? Had his time already come and gone? Should he just forget about all of it, as if it had been a dream? Todd didn't think so.

Now, Todd is ready to get back in the ring. Along with submitting old videotapes, photographs, and article clippings documenting his high scores from the past, Todd is busy playing his way to new world records. He still has the skills, as evidenced by his recent score achievements, which include 780,035 (flipped) on Centipede, 59,050,059 on Journey Escape, and 0:56 on Superman, all for the Atari 2600. He plans on becoming a key player in the world of competitive gaming.
