JohnBuell Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 So when having some friends over yesterday, we got to talking about some of my Atari gear, and I turned on one of the 800XEs I got with the SIO2SD connected, loaded up "Last Starfighter" and he really got into the game.... At one point, recharging at the sun in the Rylos' system, I noticed a familiar looking spacecraft warping by, probably doing a slingshot effect.... Anybody know anything about the appearance of the USS Enterprise? Like what specifically triggers it? Anything happen if you try to shoot at it? etc?

Wow... too bad there was not a screenshot of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I've seen it years ago and I'm fairly sure it's documented. I forget the means to trigger it, but I think you might have to hang around until the point of your ship melting for it to appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Yep I saw it when I did my write up of the game. Just one of those random things I think, I don't think there's a way to trigger it. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I hadn't ever seen it, or remembered seeing it until just the other evening. Fun stuff though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
