Contestant: Steve Isaacs
Steve Isaacs appeared on STARCADE! show #75 taped in July 1983. He was 14 at the time. He played a good game but fell just short of beating his opponent Robbie Nobori. Steve's favorite game was Sinistar and as luck would have it, Sinistar was the Grand Prize on his show. Today, Steve says, "I never quite got over the disappointment of not winning a Sinistar machine." Steve's opponent played for the Sinistar game but fell far short of scoring the points he needed to win.	Steve wanted to be on STARCADE! because "I like the idea of mixing video games, TV and competing. I also like all the new games and to how a TV show works. And, of course, winning an arcade game. And it's just a great show." According to Steve, he "found out about STARCADE! on Entertainment Tonight and I have been watching it ever since." Entertainment Tonight did a story on STARCADE! when it first went on the air. Steve's ambition was, "to direct movies and write scripts and be like Walt Disney and Steven Spielberg."	Well, he didn't become another Disney or Spielberg BUT he did make it in show business ... When he checked in Steve told us, "I became an MTV VJ, played 'Tommy' in 'The Who's Tommy' Broadway Touring Company and played in a band called 'Skycycle' (named after the game TRON, you think) on MCA Records. Currently, I am a Flash web designer who specializes in movie sites - I did the 'Hannibal' site and 'The Majectic' site." Who says dreams don't come true. They do for Starcaders!
