Tempest

An arcade game originally released in 1981 by Atari. Tempest was a vector-based arcade game designed and programmed programmed by Dave Theurer where the player would control a small ship that moved around in a wireframe tunnel destroying oncoming space ships. Besides being one of the most popular Arcade games of all time, Tempest also left a few urban legends in it's wake, one of which was Polybius - An early beta of the game which caused Vertigo and Motion Sickness, and was supposedly part of a government test to brainwash America's youth.
I played Tempest up at Pinball Pete's the other day. I lost quickly.

The Tempest

A major ass stomping storm thats said to be due in the year 2006, prophesied by the Insane Clown Posse in their 2005 album The Calm. Apparently this storm is supposed to rip all the non-believers a new asshole with lightning that sets fire to water, flaming tornadoes, thunder loud enough to shatter brick walls, and all other manner of apocalyptic phenomenon.
Better watch the crop circles, cause the Tempest is gonna be one badass bitch.

The most beautiful girl in the world. She's the alpha and deserves all the respect. NEVER CALL HER A VIOLENT STORM OR DUSK DEVIL.

Tempest

A poor girl who probably isn't all that bad, but whose attitude becomes sour since she hangs out with the wrong kind. Usually can be found near a Crutch Girl .
That poor girl's such a Tempest. She could've been more than that.
