BIGHMW Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I know having played it in the arcade that I have always wanted to see this game for the 5200, by far it would be one of the best for the trak-ball. I know that if anyone likes missile Command that somebody should port this game too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I've never played this one. I've only heard of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wongojack Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 It would be a good game for the 5200 controller options. It is a trak ball game in the arcade, but I think I'd probably like playing it with the analog sticks better than the trak ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inky Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 A very underrated game. I'd love to see it ported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Another game I've never heard of, let alone actually played. PA arcades weren't as good as west coast arcades, it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Haven't rumours circulated for years that a port of Liberator was actually started for the 5200? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+davidcalgary29 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Do tell... In 2004, Curt Vendel said: To answer David's question, myself and another expert have detected and are in the works of tracking down an actual Atari 800 version of Liberator, we've found a lot of conclusive evidence to date and we are hoping that once a certain 500LB washing machine sized hard disk system is brought back on-line by me in the coming months, we may have found the actual game itself... Curt Most of the comments (granted, now decades old) seem to be about a possible A8 port. But I believe a few suggested a concurrent 5200/A8 port, which is not implausible.

Dutchman2000 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Atari was working on an 800 port of Liberator. Nothing has been found yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
