Atari Battlestar Game that never was

Post by goldcylon1 » Wed Oct 17, 2012 3:31 pm

Remember when Laser Discs were the be all or end all of all Arcade Game systems ruled by Dragons Lair and Firefox based upon the Clint Eastwood movie? Atari planned to launch a BSG retrofit using the Firefox console as a refurb.


Pretty neat the Demo Video of BSG pitch by Atari

I realize that but it was a pilot view I guess even for an upside down landing. Remember those early laserdisc games relied on a reaction via the joystick to progess the story. Nice piece of history however. I had never seen it before. GC1 :cylongold:
