LOL!!! I think the same could be asked about _any_ 2600 game! ;)
_Especially_ one as well-polished as Oystron! ;)
Thanks for the laugh, and I do mean that in a good way! :)

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm still hoping my Jag is good for
something other than Defender 2000 and Sensible Soccer... :-P
Actually, I think there is a parallel. For one the appeal is similar: A
game that looks incredibly promising coming out for a dead Atari console.
And unless Hasbro does something crazy, the 2600 will be the first
[open-ended, multi-game playing] console for the Atari and the Jag will
be the last. BS fans are hoping to see a game with no equal come out for
the Jag now, well after the zenith of the system that has been
painstakingly play-tested, a real first for the Jag. I can see how the
excitement might carry over into a 2600 game. Too bad this doesn't look
like a real one.
If only that MK2600 had been real... ;) Anybody else see that?
