UFO Patrol Review for atari 2600 eggmanfat120
UFO Patrol by suntek for the Atari 2600 is a unique game, And in my opinion, It is better than other Atari games. It offers a good amount of lives than other games... But is a bit too hard. You play as the UFO in this game. What you have to do is shoot the enemy's In your path, But they shoot back at you! Plus... They move around constantly! Also... You cannot hit walls, or else you lose a life! Now, there are allot of hard Atari games, but... You'll find this one harder! Now, to start off, Here is the rating for difficulty:
Difficulty: 8
______________________________________________
Now... This game is actually pretty challenging! You need to avoid walls and destroy enemy's without letting them destroy you! It doesn't seem that challenging, but trust me... it is! I don't think many people will be able to beat this... Try the game... and you will see!
Depth: 6
______________________________________________
I... actually don't know how long this game goes on till... But, I'm assuming that it is a pretty long game. I mean, Did you read the difficulty above? If its that difficult (Trust me, it is!) Then it should take you a very long time to beat it, Since its SO FRUSTRATING! So, I assume that this game will go on for a very long time! Unless you are, like, the worlds top 10 best video game players, then you can probable beat in under 25 minutes.
Story: 0
______________________________________________
Okay... I don't think this game UFO patrol has a story... I don't own it. I played it on an emulator though... and from what I can see, There is no story. But, That's just me, Because in these old Atari games there is usually a little mini story in the manual of the game. If I had a manual for the game, I could see what the story is.
Addictiveness: 6
_____________________________________________
This game makes you want to beat it so badly the first time you play it! Yes, there is not story... from what I can tell, But so what! This game is surprisingly FUN! It is SO FRUSTRATING, but when you get frustrated at this game... Its like the game is calling out your name for you to continue! Don't let your UFO down! Continue even if you die, start again! Don't give up!
Sound: 7
_____________________________________________
For an Atari 2600 game, the sound isn't so bad! I mean, yes... Its still bad compared to the nes... but were talking about the Atari here! The grandfather of all games! (Well, not the magnavox odyssey 1). The crashing sounds when you hit a wall are pretty good for a Atari game... and the sound is totally playable! Its not like some of those Atari games with the sounds that annoy you to death! So, overall, I rated the sound 7.
Graphics: 8
_____________________________________________
I rated the graphics 8, because... well, for the Atari, the graphics aren't that bad! Its simple graphics, but its goodly animated and you can actually make out whats on screen! Especially when you die, The colors flashing on the screen just go so well with a game like this!
Overall: 7.2
_____________________________________________
So... In conclusion, for an Atari game... This game isn't all half bad! UFO patrol provides allot of fun, if you have a Atari, or not! Its just so well put together for a Atari game! Everyone should check this game out, its allot of fun... On a Atari, Or on a emulator! (Oh, yeah... I forgot to mention... If you are willing to sell your Atari 2600 wood grain model console for some reason... And if it works... I would be willing to take it from you... I really want a Atari!!! But don't place it overly high... And test it to make sure it works.)
