+Psionic Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Of all the versions of Beamrider, which console has the best? Well, Alan Hewston gave the Commodore 64 version the gold medal when he reviewed "The Many Faces of Beamrider" back in Retrogaming Times #54... http://www.retrogamingtimes.com/rgtimes54/#a4 I'm partial to that version myself. The 2600 port is slightly cut down, lacking some of the enemies from the higher sectors. I don't own it on cartridge personally, but I just gave it a few tries on Activision Anthology for PS2 and the gameplay seemed a bit off to me. Either the 2600 port is slightly slower than the C64 and CV versions or there's some significant emulation lag, because the game plays slower overall and enemies (as well as their shots) stay on the screen too long.
