@No1BRC We are two that loved our atari st's out of our minds :D
-
@LeopardFixJeopardy Yea the game was shit, Elite was good on the ST and Dungeon Master was the best game ever! The Sentinel was pretty good, Archipelagos that was good. In fact there was loads of good games thinking about it. Stunt car racer, Guild of Thieves, Monkey Island, damn I need to buy an ST!
-
It even came with a novel in the gamebox. The game was somewhat average.
-
The most epic intro for one very average and boring game! That music must have been 3/4 of the diskette.
-
I guess this little intro filled about half of the total space avaible on a 770kb disk

I actually can't remember if the game ever ended. I know you could destroy the starglider flagship, but I think the game just kept going after that. (?) Essentially you were trying to keep your fighter craft in the field, stealing energy from the energy lines, rearming at bases, fighting off the various enemies on the ground and in the air. It was actually pretty fun as a 3D vector combat game. A lot like the arcade Star Wars game, but with greater depth and variety.
-
Yes indeed. Kids are so bloody blase these days about the next gen of consoles that come out, but the ST and Amiga were a whole new world, a quantum leap from the machines that had come before. Full WIMP environments, viable 3D processing, hundreds of colours, and thousands of enthusiasts building games and other applications for them as one- or two-man teams. Great days.
-
The game was pretty good, certainly for the time.

I love it! Thanx for the video! (although the game itself kinda sucked)
I remember how fascinated I was when I heard that HUMAN voice out of my ATARI 1040STFM ^^.
Yeah... childhood...
