Albert Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Saboteur is an enjoyable multi-level shooter written by Howard Scott Warshaw, the Atari programmer and designer responsible for Yars' Revenge, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and E.T. In Saboteur, you play the role of Hotot, a cybernetic life form who must destroy a secret missile base that evil intruders plan to use as a launching site to destroy the galaxy's power source. Saboteur was never released by Atari, and at some point work was even done to modify the game to fit the A-Team television show. Saboteur will be released in cartridge form at PhillyClassic 5 with a professionally printed box, manual and label, all in the style of Atari's original silver label releases. Howard Scott Warshaw will be attending PhillyClassic 5, and will be autographing copies of Saboteur purchased at the show! This is a more complete version of the game than what is currently floating around the net. You can read a thorough review of Saboteur over at AtariProtos.com.

neotokeo2001 Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 I would love to get this one. I won't be going to PC5, can anyone help me out by picking one up for me? Does'nt anyone know that Orlando is the convention capital of the world? We have got to get something put together down here.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendon Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Will the AA store or another vendor being selling these after the show for those who can't attend? I doubt if I'll be able to attend this years show and I'd love to obtain a copy of it and signed (if possible) and it would be really neat if the AA store could sell a few after the show. Not sure who put this package together but it is an INCREDIBLE job!!! Mendon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted February 17, 2004 Author Share Posted February 17, 2004 Please tell me there will be a way to obtain this after Philly 5!!! Yes, this and any other games/products we release at PC5 will be available for purchase after the show, although in the case of Saboteur you'll only be able to get it autographed if you attend. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 keep taunting and keep taunting with more titles Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 I can't go to Philly5 since I have other commitments that take precedence. I would love to be able to get this game as it looks like it is a lot of fun. I hope the Atariage stores make this available to those who can not attend Philly5.

elviticus Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 I 2nd ...3rd or .. 4th or .. 5th the request to be able to buy this through AtariAge. I WISH I could make it to the show and buy a signed copy - but I definitely want to get one anyway!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davepesc Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 I would like to attend the classic. Has anyone ever been there? Can I just show up and get in, or is this the kind of event where you must pre-register? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davepesc Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Also, if I do get in, I'll try to get a few extra signed copies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine you are HSW and some reseller shows up at the table with 50 copies for him to sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susuwatari Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 I wish I could go, I could bring along my CIB Yars Revenge, CIB Raider of the Lost Ark and my CIB ET and have those 3 signed along with Saboteur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted February 17, 2004 Author Share Posted February 17, 2004 I can see why they would say that only people who attend can get it signed. Imagine you are HSW and some reseller shows up at the table with 50 copies for him to sign. There will be a limited number available at the show (at least 100), so we want to ensure that anyone who attends is able to get his or her copy first. If there are copies remaining on Sunday, we will allow people to purchase additional copies, within reason. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroWing Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 Any idea how much the asking price will be? My budget for PC5 is growing faster than the national debt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted February 18, 2004 Author Share Posted February 18, 2004 Any idea how much the asking price will be? That hasn't been decided yet, but probably comparable to other, similar releases. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
