 
ROBOT TANK
BY ACTIVISION FOR THE
ATARI 2600
Released in 1983 GAME:
A battle of Tanks across a playfield - very much like Battle zone in
all but name
Lee: "This is battle zone with a few tweaks
although just as much fun. The game plays better than the arcade game
ever did (maybe its the controls - its been a while since I have played
an actual original BZ arcade machine). As ever, the game play is top
notch and much addictiveness is injected as you cross colourful the
rolling hills looks for those tanks to destroy. All done in lovely
details as much and more what the Atari should have coped with. I have
to mention the fantastic death scene as the screen fizzles out as
another tank is out of the game - superb little touch. It is the little
touches that make Robot tank the game that it is. In a toss between the
official Atari Battle zone and this - each one is just as good and its
hard to choose - maybe the Atari effort wins? but it is nice to have two
versions I can play and enjoy - what fun!"
OVERALL: A near perfect slant on Battle
Zone
