Classic Game Room HD - ZAXXON for Atari 2600 review

The 1st Classic Game Room HD episode. This is the first CGR review recorded 7 years after the cancellation of the original series. Classic Game Room HD is a new member of the Classic Game Room family. A more relaxed, subdued show about classic video games from the past 30 years. These are the games you probably missed, some of them on purpose. Games for the Atari 2600, 7800, NES, Sega Genesis and more. This is one of the first SHMUPS ever made, this 3/4 vide horizontal scrolling shmup is the stuff of legends. Zaxxon is an arcade, coin-op, old school classic video game from the early 1980's. This review is of Zaxxon by Coleco, for use on the Atari 2600 game console (or compatible Sears video game systems)

Be sure to watch the original Classic Game Room episodes. Classic Game Room was the original classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999-2000, now on DVD. PS3 or Xbox 360 Live Arcade remake of Zaxxon someday? We can only hope.

@dkempf1: That's just how Youtube partnerships works. Let the man earn his money.

I think of this like 3D River Raid in Space.

@deadlygroove1 yeah i saw it. it was hilarious.i was just glad to see that Dave just had other stuff to do and he didnt get in a big fight with mark or something. did you watch the video called the real classic game room? it was like a parody of celebrity being stuck up. it was so funny. just search real classic game room and you'll find it

[deadlygroove1]

@SolidSnake684 Amen brother!!! What would be cool is to have the 1999 Dave and the 2008 Mark back together again. Did you see Mark's interview with Dave? It's a 6 part series. I don't know why part 7 isn't up but still really awesome to watch. Search "Interview with Mark and Dave" on youtube bro. I'm pretty sure that's the title. :)

@deadlygroove1 hell if were going on that route i want 1999 Mark AND Dave back

[deadlygroove1]

@SolidSnake684 I want the 2008 style of CGR HD back. It was a lot better in my opinion. From the middle of 2009-today, Mark talks just like a commercial reviewer which also makes him sound older. I like it better when he kept it real and sounded like he was talking to you like as if he was one of your friends. Maybe one day we'll have the good old Mark back.

HD stands for Heavy Duty

*sigh* back when CGR HD was relaxed. Oh my how things have changed. I wonder how Lord Karnage would feel.
