Check out the latest episode of the fantastic Intellivision poscast from the Intellivisionaries. Episode 6 is AVAILABLE HERE. Then head over to Atari Age forums and discuss your favorite parts in there.
Program highlights for this episode are: We do our traditional “deep dive” game review; this time it’s The Dreadnaught Factor from Activision. We interview the programmer / designer of the game, Tom Loughry. We also interview Kieren Hawken (aka “The Laird”) from Retro Video Gamer in the UK. And this month we have a special guest host, Kevin Savetz – author of “The Terrible Nerd”, one of the hosts of Antic: The Atari 8-bit Podcast, and an Intellivision collector. And all the feedback, news and fun you’ve come to expect from our show is here too.
