Battlezone (c) Atari 1983, 1987 for the Atari 8 bit line of computers

Included are:
the 1987 Atari XEGS cartridge version
the 2006 file version by Fandal for the Atari 130XE
the 2005 version by HomeSoft, coverted from the Atari 5200 SuperSystem game

A first person shooter done right.. Well, maybe except for the 5200 conversion, which is almost unplayable, due to crappy collision detection and overall jerky movement. Still, this game is a classic, and holds up well against its groundbreaking and more famous (and probably popular as well) Atari VCS counterpart.

Using the Atari800Win PLus emulator (http://www.a800win.atari-area.prv.pl/) with standard Atari 800XL settings (XL/XE / 64kB RAM / PAL mode).
