people come and go, but their code lives on.

I've never seen this game before (got my 800XL in 1986), but this looks pretty impressive by 1984 standards.
The style of the music sounds reminiscent of Sky's upbeat rendition of the same piece (i.e. Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor).

The music was badass ! I remember playing this most of the time only to hear this awesome tune.

awesome music!

My friend has this game on a little Atari thing with 6 games built into it, myself and all my friends are now savagely addicted to it.

Cool! I think this was the first game played as we finally hooked up our Atari XL to the stereo... right after I learned what RCA plugs and a "Y" connector were. :D

@y2k4ever1 exactly. That is how I feel.

The classi stand up version of this game is the best and the hardest to play. I have both that and the nes version. nes has the best music though.
It is not just people in there 30's that collect or own vintage games. There are plenty of people younger then that, that appreciate the classics. I am in my teens and I have nine systems including a Atari 7800 and possibly a Atari 5200.
