    Classic Game Room reviews STAR CASTLE for the Vectrex from 1983 based on Cinematronics' 1983 arcade game! There's a mysterious fortress in a far-off galaxy filled with riches and beautiful women who look like the babes in Flash Gordon (I made that part up, but it does enhance the story). You want in but the fortress is surrounded by golden-future-space walls and a Zorlon cannon! Destroy the walls, steal the riches, save the girls and rack up high scores in the awesome STAR CASTLE!! If it's on the Vectrex you must own it.

    Lansing, Michigan represent! Still couldn't believe there were more Vectrex reviews for Mark to do.

    The vectrex is fascinating! I still have my Vectrex (MB model) since 1983 and it still works perfectly. since he was joined by two other small brothers :-)
    For me it is the most magical console ever built. As I see the quality homebrew today, I'm speechless! Otherwise, thank you Mark for this video on "Starcastle" which is a great and challenging game .. friendship of France, Pat

    Can you imagine Mark's joy if someone was to code Truxton for the Vectrex? As always, this review was of high quality and entertaining. Thanks CAR.

      this is also the year that people are going to learn to spell the name Vectrex right. oh, and its also the year where people are going to all get the rare light pen and draw their avatar on youtube with it. HINT HINT.

    My brother and I kept all the boxes and packaging material when we were young. Fast forward 30 years later and unsealing the doors to the shipping container with my kids,. While holding my USA Lite flickering bulb, we walked by Tutankhamen's sarcophagus, Anubis, the Ark of Covenant, parachute pants, Rampage Full size arcades and others until we made it to the waterbed headboard and in the pockets were Atari, Commodore 64, Nintendo, and Vectrex games. Unseen to human eyes and untouched by looters the treasure awaited a new generation. We slowly pulled the Vectrex with foam packaging out of its box and marveled at the ingenuity of the ancients!

    Nice, finally another Vectrex review. I'd totally loan from my collection to see more reviews if only they did loaners (they rarely have but tend not to). I can understand why not though.

  • @Ripplin

    Ah, nice to see another classic game, rather than another PS4-that-looks-like-a-PS3 game. ;)

    They really need to make the Vectrex again especially with the trend of re-releasing old classic home gaming systems.

    Cool this is one of the only games I don't have a physical copy of (other than on the multicart). It looks like lots of fun and like most Vectrex games damn hard.

    Hey Mark! You finally got Star Castle! Indulge in that delicious nougaty space cannon center! Mmmmm.... Nougat. I think I'll play Star Castle while eating Toblerone now.
    My high score is 460,880. What's yours?

  • @spiff2268

    I'm surprised this game hasn't gotten an uberkickass modern remake for download on a current gaming system yet.

  • @TheCRTman
    @TheCRTman 11 років тому

    This is a great version. These have been going for $100 on ebay for almost 3 years now. Yar's Revenge is actually directly based off of this game. I got to play the sit down version of this game. It was awesome!

    • @PrimeRibb69
      @PrimeRibb69 10 років тому

      I read that too. They were actually trying to make Star Castle for the 2600 but the system wasn't up to snuff for it so they took what they had done so far and made it Yars Revenge.

    eww. jokes aside, this is terrible. I thought the vectrex was like a knockoff dreamcast or something; this is more like that driving game when i was a kid, where you just tried to keep the car on the road, and it looked like it was internally lit with a candle. Fun back then, but i didnt know/have anything better at the time.
