This game is simply awesome! Everything this game does are things the 2600 was not designed to do. A 3D shooting game the really pushes the 2600 to its limits if not beyond. Any serious 2600 gamer & collector should get this to try. Do not leave it on the shelf! OK...I'm done...back to play more Solaris.
