oh man , BRE, they go way back, and they've ALWAYS been overpriced

More than likely it was a WIP name for the game (makes sense since there are pistons/elevators in the game). I'd be interested in hearing more about those carts as well since they could very well be prototypes. Tempest i'll double check on all this stuff once i get everything back and an atari vcs set up. i remember piston pete/infiltrate as being completely playable which is why i didnt think it was a proto. i had never played infiltrate before, but there was a regular copy in the box too. a really odd find the whole lot was. i gotta say most apollo games are pretty bad, although i do like the animation touches like the clouds/palm trees in lochjaw/shark attack and the suitcases in lost luggage. the only other find i had comparable to this was a cib intellivision turbo which someone got off of me for a steal many years ago

hi i'm the seller of the lochjaw carts. i didn't post earlier because i felt it would be intrusive and look like i was shilling for my auctions, which i know can be really annoying in communities like these. a few people asked about the hand labeled carts, and i really honestly believe they are not really anything, other than maybe it was interesting that an apollo employee screwed around and copied a bunch of games from another company. i would look at them right now but they're in a box (i just moved, which is why i sold the 2nd lochjaw cart.) the only thing i remember being weird was an infiltrate cart that was labeled "piston pete", but i could never find any other reference to that name so i dismissed it as someone screwing around again. a lot (most) of the hand labeled games are activision games in apollo shells. i did mean to open one up at one point to see what the board was like (if it was an eprom, etc) but never did.
