Re: Tempest
Nice. I was disappointed that I ran out of bullets and was left to just wander around and avoid being shot. Is that in the original arcade version? It always seemed to me that I could shoot as much as I wanted, but only do a 'zap the entire grid' once a level.
Re: Tempest
Correct. Tempest was my favorite arcade game back in the '80s. Got pretty good, too. There's two or three online versions you can play, but the UE isn't very good, IMO; You really need the dial to do it justice.
