Classic Game Room HD - SPACE JOCKEY for Atari 2600 review

[TobeyStarburst]

Does this have anything to do with the Space Jockey from Alien?

[nviso209]

Oh the irony of watching CGR and playing these games when they were the ne COD that WAS AMAZING!!!  AND STILL F'N IS!!

[sglider]

Challenging? The only challenge to this game is to try and play it for more than 5 minutes without either falling asleep or throwing up.

[punji73]

gotta love the commercials they have at the start of youtube clips these days

[Adropacrich2]

Yeah the game isn't one of the better ones for this machine.Nothing actually very wrong with it but just forgetable

[Tapewormz]

The trick to this game was to only shoot 1 enemy since there was only ever 4 sprites on the screen at one and one of them was you. :P 

[1978mtb]

I had space jockey but wasn't this game also called 32 in 1??

[AlexGRFan97]

@1978mtb It was also released in a "208 in 1" cartridge.

[MattTheSaiyan]

This isn't really a terrible game, but it always seems to leave me feeling a bit bitter and it's kinda annoying.

[X4Valor]

3:30 lol

[Clay3613]

I have 2 mint copies of this game, got them for a ridiculous price too.

[jandillingh]

were the fuck do you get you old games

[MegaSnakeEater]

Damn human stole my ufo now the army hates me.

[deadline27]

look up some info on the gulf breeze ufo sightings... the ufo pics look just like the ufo in this game lol

[kamikaze9699]

Destroy All Humans on the Atari- HOO-RAH!

And this is definitely Central PA- I live close enough to recognize the signature houses and balloons.

[TheRealDoctorJest]

I remember this game! I loved it... when I was 12 of course... but it was dang fun. :) Not as fun as Demon Attack though... (one of my 2600 favs...)

[tamagoMMA]

This was one of the few good games U.S. Games made.. who were ironically owned by Quaker Oats.

[maiki60fps]

I remember this game being displayed in a local electronics store in my town in early 90s!!! This is just another prove that Atari VCS is an incredible system. With less than 128 bytes of RAM and 1 scanline of programmable graphics... this is just incredible... Atari 2600 owns them all...

[OfficialAK47]

the good old generation ....up to ps3!!

[dacprobe1]

This game was the shit back in the day!

[Oche76]

Crapware...LOL

[harleykman]

This is an example of the Crapware that led to the 1983-84 crash.

Sure it looks good, but the gameplay is very poor. Good for people under age 10, but that's about it.

[Curious2Dream]

No, actually, I own this game, playing it long ago, and enjoyed it. People had different standards 26 years ago when it came out.

[Tryzon]

I think it looks decent enough. It's no Berserk, but it's okay.

[dustyatari]

i have it and im 13 and i love it its just kind of hard.

[kodaikun]

This game was fun, but easy to play for practically forever. You just kept getting extra guys, and eventually got bored and died on purpose.

[Snotnarok]

I hate hot air balloons! This game, is-for-me!!

Seriously though, great idea for a game.

[Lendorien]

I love your dry sense of humor. :D

[highway234]

i think they borrowed the spinning middle of the flying saucers from the ray harryhausen special effect on "earth vs. the flying saucers."

really, the spinning middle of the flying saucers in that movie changed UFOs for all time.

[deadline27]

i used to love this game so much, me and my little brother would sit and take turnes playing it for hours

[morgangamer22]

COOL

[notyoursavior78]

Yeah I'm not familiar with this one, but it doesn't look half bad especially when you increase the difficulty.

[sinistermoon]

This game was pretty fun. I was tring to remember what it was called just the other day too! So cool thanks and stuff.

[everyonelovesbutters]

meh, like u said.. theres so much more out there thats better.

[jaggedShrapnel]

This game actually looks surprisingly fun. I just might play this. Good review, keep 'em coming.

[ShoobyBugger]

I call this, 'Destroy all Humans 4.' I love the old choose your gameplay style. What would I do without these re-introductions to classics. Thanks again!

[spudbud4]

i love this game! i play it all the time on my Atari 2600
