Gameplay from Empire Strikes Back playing on an Atari 2600 VCS retro games console. Retro gaming.
This is not a review, walkthrough, playthrough, or demonstration of my playing ability.
It's simply a quick demonstration of the game so that anyone not familiar with these old games can see what it looks like.

Any opinions or comments I make regarding these games should largely be taken with a pinch of salt.
They are usually based on my first impressions after a very brief play.

The game you're talking about is attack of the mutant camels. I used to go into Currys and play it after school. Can't remember what I played it on though. It was a classic:)

I had this too, I liked Stargate better though, it was my favourite :D

Amazing, me and my brother had that originally and spent hours on it. We would get all of the at at's up to one shot off dead, line up with the horizon and fly along picking them all off with one shot. I even had some of Jeff Minter's games on Llamasoft (c4) where he would put his love of Dio heavily into it. Brilliant.

Wow, looks great, It's a shame that doesn't have more monsters :(

I got this game!! Awesome

I had this as a kid as a game that worked on my 7800. It wasn't really the ticket, to be honest.

Even as a kid I was always let down by the Atari experience when video games at the arcade were still so much better. For example about this time there was a Star Wars game at the arcade like Rouge squadron that easily dooped you qut of $4 on any given Saturday afternoon when you had this waiting at home for 'free'

This is the only 'star wars' game I had for ATARI. I think on some levels you camn actually crash the ship from landin on the mountains wrong & then there's that dxmn flashing pixel on that robot w/ch will detatch & try to chase you down.

I owned this game and could NEVER figure out what to do. Then again, I was like 4.

I will have to find this game for Atari. It looks like it could be a lot of fun.
