California Extreme 2009
This year's event was held in a new location at Hyatt Regency Hotel in Santa Clara, CA. I was thrilled to see one historic famous game, Computer Space,
the world's first commercially produced arcade game ever made! This game started the arcade industry!
Favorite game of the event.
Tank 8
Yet another rare game, Tank 8 was a 70's game and was one of very few games with 8 players compatibility. The game is like a large cocktail which players stand around the table. The setting of the game is a maze in which you control your tank using two sticks to go around the maze. Push two sticks foward to make tank go forward, pull left stick and push right stick forward to turn tank left and so on and push the red button on top of the stick to fire. The goal of the game is to try to kill your enemy tanks to rack up the points while avioding the white "X" or landmines and enemies's fire. Although it may be old crappy game by today's standard but with all 8 players playing this game, it can be fun to play trying to outbest others. See the screenshot of the game, this is from the same machine that I played at the show.
