Numan Posted March 22, 2004 Author Share Posted March 22, 2004 Three different fields of gameplay. Your performance in the first field can affect the second field, and your performance in the second field can affect the third field. The first field you are in the middle of 5 levels. Robots are running back and forth to build a rocketship. You have bird friends who are trying to help you make sure the rocket ship is not built. The second field is about bouncing bullets off a robot to destroy objects on a conveyer belt. The third field is a showdown with the warhead. My brief review above was in part jest and in part my reaction to the game. It is a complete game, and some may say one of the best for the system.

Vic George 2K3 Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Strange name for the main character. Sounds more like the voice-synthesized laughter of Gorf and Wizard Of Wor: "Hatatatatata!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numan Posted March 22, 2004 Author Share Posted March 22, 2004 If you get one game this year, this is the one to get. Interesting Gorf analogy; unless I'm mistaken, the birds are called Gorfons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassidy Nolen Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 I got a chance to play it last night. Great game. Box looks amazing as does the manual. Always neat to know HSW is working with the community, too. Makes it that much neater of a game. I guess this means that my A-Team proto will never get released. I have to confess, I like Mr. T's big head in that version, too Cassidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Yes, Saboteur is a great game and definitely one of the better examples of unreleased prototypes for the 2600. It's a shame that it was never released by Atari, but then, that gave us the opportunity to work with Howard to release it in the present, so I'm not really complaining. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DamonicFury Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 It looks like Saboteur has been removed from the AA store. I'm guessing this is due to the impending release of the Atari Flashback Console? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenwood Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 It looks like Saboteur has been removed from the AA store. I'm guessing this is due to the impending release of the Atari Flashback Console? The RealSports Basketball game is gone too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 wow, glad I got it when I did. Nothing beats having the cart for your atari. I wish they wouldn't deprive others of enjoying it on the real hardware the way it's meant to be played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad2600 Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 If they were deny such a privlege, wouldn't they have to get past Howard Scott Warshaw first? Personally, I believe that Infogrames should leave the Atari community alone. Once Hasbro released some properties into the public domain, that was it. Infogrames should not fuck with it.

atarimind Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Hey, They also took out all the reproductions carts!!!! What's going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Tons of stuff are missing. Sucks to be a poor college student. I was planning on buying quite a few of the 2600/5200 titles from AtariAge that appear to be discontinued now (Jr. Pac-Man, Super Pac-Man, Adventure Plus, etc.), as soon as I got the money. Wish I had realized they might not always be there before it was too late, instead of spending money on other things that weren't in any danger of disappearing in the future (Such as a new TSW steering wheel/pedal combo for the PC).

Atariboy Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 If this is the way Infogrames is going to honor its history, I think I'll skip buying their Flashback console and Atari Anthology and try to buy some of these games off Ebay or wherever I can find them before they become too rare/expensive like Battlesphere for the Jaguar.

bjk7382 Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Tons of stuff are missing. This sucks... NO hacks whatsoever in the store anymore I wonder if AtariAge is going to have to go load up a truck and bury all the cartriges they can't sell now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Take solace. They're just Combat carts that would have gathered dust in a closet, pawn shop, or landfill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
