Classic Game Room HD - ROBOTRON 2084 Xbox Live review

Classic Game Room was the FIRST classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999. Returning in 2008 with new episodes, Classic Game Room breaks out a review of ROBOTRON 2084 for the Xbox 360 Xbox Live Arcade XBLA. Designed by Eugene Jarvis and released to the arcades in the early 1980's, Robotron 2084 is one of the best old school classic video games ever created. You are a loner armed with a laser gun facing wave after wave of Robotrons hell bent on wiping out mankind. What will the year 2085 be like, how about 2086? This game asks a lot of questions and leaves few answers. But it does leave a wake of human carnage in its path. This is a hard shooter, sort of like Smash TV (hmmmm.... any similarities, maybe the same awesome designer??) CGRHD will also be covering Robotron 2084 for the Playstation 1 game console in the Williams Greatest Hits collection, Robotron 2084 for Atari 7800 and also Robotron 64 for the N64. Do they have a version of this game on PS3 or Wii? On Xbox Live you can get achievements and gamerpoints.

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. The HD series is reviewing PS3, PS2, Genesis, NES, Atari and Xbox 360. XBLA. videos review review show funny coin-op quarters

@Themastercode1235 That's the thing dude, you weren't around back then which is why you don't get it. Just like whatever video game you thought was revolutionary when you were a kid, someone 20 years from now will say something similar to what you said. I don't see what was so great about Pong because I was like 1 year or 2 years old but to those people who were around back then when it came out, it was the shit.

No Im not a new fag and no I dont despise this game in anyway. Its just how can this be one of the best games ever? Your just a robot shooting aliens how is it in anyway a revoltionary game? Keeping in mind I wasnt born of that generation and I have never played this game , I just wonder why people think its so good? It looks more like a fun little flash game... I think theres somthing Im missing...
