  1. I wasted a lot of time on the Atari version way back when I was a lad, heres hoping they can capture that feeling I had when I was about 12 of being an actual space faring pilot!! Good times.

  2. Star Raiders! Wow, just wow. I played far too much of that on various platforms throughout the ’80s. And my PS3 collection is still missing a space-combat title. Colour me very interested.

  3. I wish we were getting Haunted House too!! :0(

  4. I played this a lot on my Atari 800.
