You'd be forgiven for thinking this first-person adventure shooter was from the 90's, with it's impressive 3D levels which animate smoothly! However Xybots is a very unique creation from Atari, back when they were at the top of their game. With simultaneous two-player split-screen action, you take control of 'Major Rock Hardy' and 'Captain Ace Gunn' (the programmers were having some fun there) as you battle past robot 'Xybots', in an attempt to clear the maze levels, solving puzzles and engaging in skirmishes as you go. Designed by Ed Logg, the creator of Gauntlet, it's a little known fact that Xybots was originally conceived to be a sequel to Gauntlet II, with a planned title of 'Gauntlet III: Catacombs'. You can certainly see relationship in the way you move through dungeon-like levels, only in a different perspective, however the feel of the game is very different from Gauntlet. Although well received upon launch, regrettably the game was not a commercial success at the time due to the approachability of the new controls, and as such, a Xybots sequel was never made :-( Our cabinet is an original dedicated cabinet imported from the USA, and it's in beautiful condition. The game features unique 8-Way joysticks, which can be rotated left and right at the top, to turn your players viewpoint. It's a real experience to play and a must see on your next visit!
