    Tempest is a great game. Thanks for the prototypes. I think I will try out the Amiga version and the DOS version. Tempest 20o0 on the "Jag" is a true legend.

    4:30 the start of a nice beat, most 2600 games lacked music but the sfx slowly made a beat. Centipede, missile command, boxing & defender 2 are the readily memorable. I'm sure there were many more but it was '92/93 the last time I used my 2600.

    No footage of the warp levels from the Jaguar version is disappointing. Also workrs have been useful to indicate the year of release so that we judge contemporaneous versions against each other.

    As a former Amstrad 464 CPC owner, I'll say that version is the best 8 bit micro version around!! The Amiga version is extremely surprising like it's a prequel to the Jaguar version!!! It's that good and advanced!!! Typhoon 2001 does it SO right and it's a 5mb freeware title that can still hold it's commanding position (obligational download!). But to the most insane version is the mysterious NOUN Tempest 3000!!! That version is outright batsh!t nuts which levels that change, bend and alter themselves!!! Shame it's so hard to find or emulate...Then there the version not on here...Tempest 4000 which is so so but it has it's faults and some of them are pretty serious...So Tempest 3000 to me is the DEFINITIVE version because it's so hard to find....

      BTW, the music tracks in the Saturn version are exactly in the same order as in the soundtrack CD, so if you happen to have a Saturn version CD, you can use it while you play the MS-DOS version.

    I am actually not that fond of Jeff Minter's various psychedelic embellishments in the later versions; they detract from the stark, high-speed brutality of the basic game.
    How is the 5200 prototype that slick and fast, and why was it never released as an 8-bit computer game? (Maybe control depended on the analog joysticks?) It looks amazingly good.
    Most of these suffer from the lack of that wonderful heavy dial encoder on the arcade cabinet. But I had a 1990s Macintosh knockoff called Arashi that used the mouse and played really well.

      It was an attempt at an expanded DVD player/disk specification. The DVD players had a bunch of extra graphics/computing hardware in them that enabled things like better frame-by-frame/reverse playback, on-the-fly zoom/enhance, and running actual programs off of the DVD - e.g. Tempest 3000. It was marketed as a super-DVD-player that also played games, instead of a games console that also played DVDs. However, there weren't enough Nuon-enhanced DVDs made to encourage people to buy (expensive) Nuon players, and not enough people buying Nuon players to encourage movie/game publishers to support the Nuon format. It was also released around the same time as the XBox (original) and PS2 - both of which could play DVDs, had bigger game libraries at launch, and cost less.

    Tempest tube (arcade hack) is most hardest gameplay, but the game is the same
    The 2600 version look strange

    Dave Theurer, who also made Missile Command, made these games from nightmares he had. In this case, it was from a movie he'd seen at camp, about monsters crawling out of a hole in the ground, which he said haunted him for years.

    The arcade always takes me back to school lunch time at the local chip shop, with the strong aroma of vinegar filling the air.

    Can’t compare with the arcade. Tempest X is awesome. The graphics r awesome.

    what the hell did they even try to make with the 2600 version, because damn that doesn't even look like tempest. i know the 2600 is far more capable than that mess.
