Cheez27 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 When I play Yar's Return the whole screen is jittery and blurry. The further I get in the game, it seems to get worse and eventually almost unplayable. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just how the game is? I have a Rev. C board.

Curt Vendel Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Its not the console, its that particular revision of the game. A newer version was commissioned, but Atari opted not to incorporate it into the last revision of the console rom :-( Curt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 So I take it a fixed version exists? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
policelimit Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I agree with the unplayability of Yar's Return, if unplayability is even a word. Of all of the games included in the FB2 this was the most disappointing. Yar's Revenge is such an awesome game, the sequel needs to be just as awesome. I'd love to play that revised version Curt is talking about. Is it available online somewhere? I'd love to have that .bin so I can play it on Stella.

Curt Vendel Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Its currently not available, Atari may make it available on their new website this summer, they are in the works to establish an entirely new kind of web presence and just recently released a new release about it, but details are not being given out yet, hopefully more news to come as allowed.

I dunno, I was looking forward to Asteroids Deluxe, but the rolling screen killed that game. I'd like to see a fixed version of that one as well.

policelimit Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I have never had any sort of problem with Asteroids Deluxe on my FB2. Was there an earlier verison of that game that had problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 (edited) The screen jumps on Asteroids Deluxe on most TVs. Same with Space Duel IIRC. Edited April 13, 2007 by Lord Helmet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atwwong Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 The screen jumps on Asteroids Deluxe on most TVs. Same with Space Duel IIRC. You recall correctly. Hopefully the revised version of these games and others will be released with the FB2 Portable, or in some other form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
