[QUOTE=Cluckyx;21357515]I have a copy of Polybius in my attic. I hear that will fetch quite a bit, maybe I should get it down.[/QUOTE] wait what [quote]Polybius is a supposed arcade game featured in an Internet urban legend. According to the story, the Tempest-style game was released to the public in 1981, and caused its players to go insane, causing them to suffer from intense stress, horrific nightmares, and even suicidal tendencies. A short time after its release, it supposedly disappeared without a trace.

Red the wikipedia article and the dangers make me want to play it much more.
