Spy Hunter

Dun dun dah duh dah duh dah Dun....Is that the Peter Gunn theme or did they change it enough to pretend it's an original composition.  Who didn't want to pretend that they were in a James Bond car chase.  Apparently Midway used the Bond theme on the initial run of Spy Hunter but was never able to get the rights, so we got the music that really makes this game. The Weapons Van also added a bit of a Knight Rider flair as well.  This game had cool power-ups and a weight to the steering and collisions that really sold the action. Watch out for those 'copters.

Slot Racers

Slot Racers was incredibly fun.  Part Combat, part Pac man, part Bomberman, All awesome.  I'm sure we couldn't go back but it was great at the time.  The varied speed and behavior of the missiles is where the fun really came in.  This would have probably been pretty lame as a single player game, but it was two player only and that insured that the enemy AI was reasonably good.  I think the Landon boys were pretty fierce at this one.

 Which ones are the cars and which ones are the missiles?
And in the words of the immortal Harold W "God wants you to PRAY.....before sports".
