Book Reviews of Defender
Book Review: one of the best atari ever made
Summary: 5 Stars
i remember when i bought a dreamcast one of the first games i purchased for it was a game that had all the old classics like defender.problem was it was terrible it was nothing like the atari version it was much harder for one.and it wasn't even close to feeling like the old defender.it looked good but looks dont mean a better game.its a shame that even with todays technology they couldnt make a better version defender game than an old atari game.this is still the best version to play.i'm not sure if anyone else has tried to make this game besides dreamcast.
Summary of Defender
ATARI 2600 VIDEO GAME VERSION. GREAT GAME. ALL-TIME GREAT. RARE HARD TO FIND GAME. GREAT FOR COLLECTORS. Storyline: RESCUE THE HUMANOIDS Earth's "friendship" signals, beamed into deep space and beyond the Milky Way, have attracted extraterrestrial beings, all right, but not the ones we expected. Now wave after wave of warlike Aliens from some unidentified solar system "home in" and attack. In the cockpit of Universal Space Ship Defender, you wait tensely, watching your scanner for approaching aliens. There they are! First comes a lone Bomber, laying space mines. You pick that off with your laser missiles with no trouble. But an innocent-looking Pod ship explodes when you hit it, releasing clusters of missile- splitting Swarmers. Whew! That was close! Now what? Your Scanner shows a convoy of saucer-shaped Baiters coming fast and escorting a squadron of Landers. Space Intelligence has informed you that the Landers' diabolical mission is to kidnap Earth's Humanoids and transform them into hideous flying Mutants programmed to destroy the cities and take over the Earth. In the city below, Humanoids run helter-skelter through the streets like frightened ants. Some cower in doorways, hoping, no doubt, that the Landers will overlook them. No chance! Look! See that terrified Humanoid wriggling helplessly in the force of the Lander beam? No time to lose! Thrust out and blast that Lander with your laser missiles. There! That got him. Now dive down and catch the Humanoid. Hurry! Hurry! He's falling fast! --From the Atari 2600 Defender instruction manual.Book Subjects
