Is it me or does Spacemaster X-7 ,Reactor,and Challenge of Nexar have the same feel or "vibe" to them? I guess its a kind of almost abstract feel is the best way i can say it.I really like all three games and i find them fun to play but they are unique games to me.I often thought Reactor was total diffrent game than what was out for the 2600 at the time and while i didnt discover Nexar untill recently it has a look to it.Sure at its hart its a shooter but its backgrounds and how its presented was diffrent for its time.Spacemaster X-7 is one of my newest games and i am loving it.Its a wild game that reminds me so much of Star Castle but it is its own game that can stand alone on the 2600.Am a strange person i guess think about these games in this way but if that these games all not of same mold as Pac-Man or Space Invaders and i for one am glad because even on the Atari 2600 we need something thats diffrent from the crowd.Play them if you havnt already and enjoy them .
