MRB2011 #1 Posted December 26, 2011 What is the name of the game shown at 3:16 in this video? It looks like the best version of Asteroids I have seen for the 2600. I have played different hacks of the original, but this looks a lot better. If you could name the game and point me in the direction of obtaining a rom for it, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

maiki #2 Posted December 26, 2011 I think it is not the 2600 version... it looks like vector graphics -> Asteroids Deluxe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Csonicgo #3 Posted December 26, 2011 I'm going to say that's a hack, or a bootleg. Since they showed Quadrun on there though, I'm not too sure. Quadrun is VERY rare, why would they show *that* game? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krypton85 #4 Posted December 26, 2011 It's just the arcade version of asteroids... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mxyzptlk #5 Posted December 26, 2011 It's just the arcade version of asteroids... No. Look at the 3:16 point in the vid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krypton85 #6 Posted December 26, 2011 Oh, it looks like they took screens from the Flashback 2, which has asteroids deluxe and quadrun on it, that would explain everything... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MRB2011 #7 Posted December 27, 2011 I was confused because the graphics looked like vector, but the score at the top definitely looks like 2600 graphics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MRB2011 #8 Posted December 27, 2011 If that is a hack, does anyone know where to find it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krypton85 #9 Posted December 27, 2011 If that is a hack, does anyone know where to find it? It's on the Atari Flashback 2 Also, Asteroids Vector edition by Hozer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maiki #10 Posted December 27, 2011 Well it looks like Asteroids from Flashback 2, but look at the different ships! This is just not that version! I think they mixed the vector arcade version and later in the video showed that hacked 2600 version... youtube: flashback 2: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
