Wow , talk about a great Atari game from the past. I still own this and every once in a while we haul out the old 2600 and start playing. i think it is funny how back in the day i could play these games for hours upon hours but now they get boring in about 10 minutes. i think this was the first star wars game made ?

There once was a time if you slapped a Star Wars logo on something, I'd buy it. And no matter how dumb said product was, I'd defend it. Since then I've gotten a lot older and a little wiser, and Lucas has released the mega-letdowns known collectively as Episode I
