It's a game of Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs, sitting on top of skyscrapers while throwing bannanas at each other. :lol:

It didn't suck... you damn kids and your playstations. I use to play this bad boy all the time with my friend when I was 11.
Gorillas.bas was one of (I think) three games that Microsoft made in QBasic as example programs. The last, I believe, was a Tetris clone.
Just so you know, it works in Linux under WINE. I discovered this post while setting up a web development partition with linux. It's pretty badass... I have IE, Mozilla, KHTML(Webcore) and Opera all in the same operating system.

Yes Jofers, MS did make a Tetris clone (but it wasn't distributed with QBASIC 1.1).. I wonder if it's "lack of existance" was due to it using the name "Tetris". Copyright violation? (I am gonna look for it).

My Bad, it's been around 15 years since I've seen this program. I did find it, and it is called "QBlocks"
