Yes I see the correlation, come to think of it Steve did kind of screw Woz over that breakout game.
Anyway maybe it doesn't suck at all, I believe Tesla needed to learn the customs of the American entrepreneurship if he was about to start his business there. And, um... I am afraid he didn't. :(
I recently found a 1.44" floppy with my first serious game, written in, ahem, Visual Basic. Neverless it still runs and is actually very playable and fun!
Now I wish I knew better then to shove it in a cardboard box and forget about it for so many years. I could have made some serious $$$ from it.
The worst part was reading the source code and realising that, despite being written in Visual Basic, the alghoritms are actually smarter and better than something I wrote very recently.

It is interesting how, any mention of Edison on the internet quickly turns away from his achievements to an impromptu discussion of how he was a dick and tried to fuck Tesla over. Every single comment in this thread is about Tesla. This amuses me greatly.
I am amazed by how, you, in one sentance have succeed to capture the exact essence of what I imagine Tesla would be like. :-)
