It is my all-time favourite arcade game! :wub:

 

Anyway, while I was browsing on Youtube I found this :

 

I've never seen anyone as good at it as this guy!! :winner:

 

I'd be wetting myself after the first wave at that speed (if I even made it that far). :rolleyes:

I guess I am the only one here who remembers it, then. :(

Not to make you feel old or anything, Viddy - but it's a little before my time and clearly hardly as classic as say, 'Space Invaders' (which it looks fairly similar to!). :P

It's about as similar to Space Invaders as the XF Winner is to the karaoke singer down your local pub... oh wait, that's probably not the best example... :lol:

I remember Defender. It was bloody hard but yes it is definately one of the classics from the original generation of arcade games

A very very very late follow-up, but I just found an even better Defender video than the one above, by the same guy...

Can we move this thread to gaming and technology now it has its own forum!

 

Ooh - when was that one set up?

My dad built his own arcade machine about 10 years ago but sold it before we moved it, we loaded it up with 100s of classics like this, Space Invaders, Pac Man, etc etc etc. I remember this vaguely and it does remind me of a more intense space invaders :P

Comparing Space Invaders to Defender is like comparing a snail to a cheetah. :lol:
