Prizes won: Robert won a collection of K-Tel Records, a Spectravideo Computer and the Grand Prize, a Moon Patrol video arcade game.

Reason he wanted to be on STARCADE!: "For my social economic development (prizes and money), fame, prestige, fun, raise your ratings, etc, etc."

According to Robert, "I played "Kick" (maybe he means QIX) so long that I had to go to the hospital with blisters on my hand."

Robert described himself as, "a fun kind of guy." Everyone on the set agreed ... he was fun to have around. 

Robert's Starcade Memories: "It's cool that just by some random surfing I found you."

"I tell people that I was on a TV show playing video games and they think I'm nuts (I am...)."

"I loved the show and the memories."

"I am now the CEO of a dot com and proud to be a dad to my 3 year old."
