Anyone remember the Last Starfighter...

www.roguesynapse.com has just released a version. I loved this movie and always wanted to play this game.

P.S. this may be old news, but I just found it.

And they said that playing videogames never got anyone anywhere. Like SAVING THE UNIVERSE! Geez. I mean, really!

Fun stuff. I was just talking about this movie the other day.

Great movie!

*logs into netflix to add it to the queue*

I'd forgot about that one. Thanks for the reminder.

I loved this movie when it came out and it became a bit of an obsession (I guess most 10 year olds fantasize about such things) - though I bought the tape of the film later and found it a little silly. However the graphics were amazing for the time - I think it was done on a Cray. It would be good to see a version of the game using the film's graphics to compliment the outstanding job already done by the guys above at roguesynapse.com.

This film fits into the same category as Tron I believe - the movie everyone saw but didn't want to admit it :)

On that note ... Space Paranoids cool!
