Oh, ok, esse aqui é até que interessante. É um percursor do que viria a ser Combat no Atari alguns anos depois. Não controla tão bem, tem menos modos de jogo, e os níveis não são variados... Mas dá para ver a genealogia do jogo aqui. Não tenho dúvidas que dava pra divertir um bocado em 1976.
A proto-Combat 1-on-1 Tank shooter and Shoot Gallery from the first cart. I'm not sure if Shooting Gallery was included here again out of laziness, or to give people an option to buy it without buying cart 1.
Funny first game achievements. The second one can be tricky if you still need to get used to the patterns. I had fun :)
Desert Fox is basically just a more primitive version of Combat for the Atari, 2 tanks, you shoot the other tank, you win! Its slow, its boring, but I suppose you could make some light entertainment from it with a friend. I will give them credit for a cool-sounding name though much better than "Combat".
And then Shooting Ga- Hey wait a minute, this is the same game as before! I mean hey it was the best game so far, so why not include it again on another cart.

The Fairchild games are probably the ones that got closer to a reflex-oriented style of gameplay after Breakout and before Space Invaders, and for that reason alone deserve a lot of respect. Other than that, Desert Fox is stunningly boring.

Los juegos de Fairchild son probablemente los que se acercaron más al paradigmas de juegos centrados en los reflejos después de que Breakout los "inventara" y antes de Space Invaders, y por esa razón sola merecen nuestro respeto. Aparte de eso, Desert Fox es increíblemente aburrido.
