1976 - Bombs Away

from The History of Video Games

In this episode we check out the sequel to Ben's beloved Drop Zone 4 by Meadows Games. Will it live up to its predecessor?! We also run through a bunch of honorable mentions, talk about the AY-3-8500 chip in detail and review Interceptor by Taito. Note/Retcon - Interceptor definitely uses a projector for the clouds and has some electromechanical sound effects making it a video/electromechanical hybrid game - The first of its kind we've really taken a look at.
