1982 Video Game high scorers...

Filed in: ,

Boing Boing has a really great post on Life magazine's 1982 magazine spread on the hot teen craze, arcade video gaming, with the best of the arcade gamers meeting at the Twin Galaxies arcade in Ottumwa, Iowa to battle it out for the high score.

The picture they have of the geek kids is pretty classic, but what's even better is that one of them, Leo Daniels, even has a website today. Check it out, because the best page is the photo gallery of the dude's bachelor apartment. It's exactly what you would expect from a guy who was a 1982 high scorer in video gaming.
