Not as easy as it looks? Wow, cuz it doesn't look that easy. Haha
-
@P0V3RTY09 This was actually based on Spacewar! A game made at MIT in 1961 for some minicomputer i think.
-
@jumblejunkie It isn't. Galaxy game ( a coin op video game) was put out for the public to play in Stanford University 2 months before Computer Space was released. Computer space was only the first released commercially. So don't get all snarky.
-
What amazes me is that Computer Space used no digital microprocessor, RAM or ROM. Just old analogue transistors and diodes.
-
Do they have a green two player cab too?
-
That's RADICAL!
-
Nice review man. I also like the look of this arcade...looks like it belongs in the old school Star Trek series. Considering this came out before PONG it actually looks better.
-
dude that is easily one of the sexiest cabs ive seen. damn, they just don't put that kinda effort into them sadly...well not that often at least
-
I've played a simulator of this game but never the real deal. Awesome review!
-
Interesting and very cool. Thanks for posting.

Now I see where Atari got their idea for Asteroids from.

@P0V3RTY09 Actually the guys that made this game would go on to make Atari in 72

IT wasnt the first arcade game, just the first commercial arcade game. Sorry to be so picky I just wondered if you bothered.

@ps3gamesncomicbooks I clearly said "first video arcade game". *hands you a cue tip*
