I wasn't necessarily planning on doing Star Raiders next, but since we were discussing it here, I figured why fight the momentum? While I have the Atari 8-bit and Atari 2600 version (the latter of course with the Star Raiders controller), I must say that my experience with the game is limited. I'd love to hear what you like about it, about any other versions you're aware of (the Atari ST version is notable, but it's my understanding that it's missing some of the magic), including any clones. Obviously it influenced Elite and Wing Commander and maybe even the Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back arcade games, and was itself inspired most likely by Exidy's 1979 arcade game, Star Fire (is that correct? In any case, it was a knock-off of Star Wars the movie), or was it something even a bit earlier? Star Fire was even cloned on the Commodore PET that same year. See the video here. Thanks!
