Used to LOVE this game, listening to the music now still gives me goosebumps!!

Was Ball Blaster for the pirates.

There's always this talk of speed, but unless you ran an Atari next to a C64, you would hardly notice any difference. I played this on C64 and it was plenty fast enough for me! :)

It took you an awfully long time to find the start button.

The thing is, while it's clear the Atari 800 had what is undoubtedly a technically better version than the C64 version, the game is the same. I grew up with the C64 version and it was and still is an excellent game in the same way this version is. The C64 version In terms of performance is slightly less flash but really only in terms of framerate- colours being subjective frankly as is music
The great thing is we all get to play these fantastic systems via their emulation

LUCASFILM games - говна не лепит!

There was nobody like Lucasfilm back in the day, that's for sure!

Sorry for posting twice (I hate this system). And my reaction was on hoques1432 actually.

The PAL and NTSC machines ran at very similar clock speed.
However, since most games used the VBI for timing and updates, and since PAL only shows 50 fields- and hence VBIs- per second instead of NTSC's 60, that's why most games run slower.
