For you vintage gamers out there,I have a question for you. Has anybody ever heard of the Odyssey or Odyssey 2 game system by Magnavox? I was at a thrift store this morning and as I was browsing I came across a boxed video game. Inside was an Atari-type cartridge game that combined with a board game. The game was designed for a game system called Odyssey 2 by Magnavox and the game was called The Quest Of The Rings or something similiar. There was a 1981 copyright year on the outside of the box. As I looked through the instructions to see if the game was complete with all its playing pieces,I gathered there must have been an Odyssey 1 game system and when that was mentioned,it was accompanied by a 1978 copyright year. If it had only been a dollar I probably would have bought it but it wasn't complete and I figured the game had a very good chance of being totally obselete as I'm not sure how many of these Odyssey game systems are still out there in the secondary market place.
