On November 1, PLAY YOUR VECTREX.<br />2. Make a note of what game(s) you played. Your name will also be needed as part of the record for the International Play Your Vectrex Day wiki page.<br /><br />These two things are mandatory. There are also bonuses that can be added as well, such as keeping a record of your game(s&rsquo;) score(s), taking photos of your score(s), your Vectrex/collection, making a drawing or gif or something that is Vectrex-related, etc. &nbsp;Full rules and regulations can be seen on the Wikia <a href="http://vectrex.wikia.com/wiki/International_Play_Your_Vectrex_Day" target="_blank">Vectrex wiki page</a> or on the <a href="http://vectorgaming.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=vectrex&amp;action=display&amp;thread=382&amp;page=1" target="_blank">vector gaming forums</a>, along with how to contact me if players wish for me to put up the information for them, rather than if they do not wish to edit the wiki page themselves. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/Darrylb500" target="_blank">YouTube video</a> to follow, hopefully somewhere between October 12-15.<br /><br />We hope to see you on November 1st!</div>]]></description>

I am the second owner of this unit, and I only plugged it in once to make sure it work when I originally received it(I never put it on, I just made sure it spun properly). If it has been used more than once or twice(if at all), I can&#39;t tell by looking at it. 3D Crazy Coaster &amp; 3D Narrow Escape are both in excellent condition, only their boxes really show any wear. The contents all look fairly new(manuals, game carts, and 3D Wheels). All Vectrex arcade systems are universal and can use games &amp; accessories from any region.</div>]]></description>

Conceptually designed by Jeff Corsiglia, and programmed by Bill Hawkins, this turned out to be the only game converted in to a coinop by the Cinematronics agreement. According to Bill, it only took him six weeks to do Cosmic Chasm (unlike the three months and 12 boxes of disks to do Rip Off) because while the rest of the programmers were out of town one weekend he stole two more drives from another programmer&#39;s setup.<br /></div><br /><br /><div align="justify">Somewhere along the line, it was decided that color overlays would be used. Overlays, which originated in coinops, served a multitude of purposes. In the early through late 70&#39;s, coinops were in black and white. If you wanted color, you would literally affix colored cellophane strips to the monitor screen, such as was done in Atari&#39;s Breakout or Taito&#39;s Space Invaders. Likewise, if the playfield was to be to complicated to draw (be it in detail, or a color problem) because of the graphics limitations of the time, overlays could be used to render permanent backgrounds or give ambiance. Such as in the asteroid backround in Atari&#39;s Asteroid Deluxe, or the stairwell in Cinematronic&#39;s Warrior. Other overlays would be on the protective plastic screen itself instead of the monitor, and add anything from exciting borders to game instructions.</div><p align="justify">&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Come back to the VecNews, this series will be continued! </strong></p>]]></description>

It was a scrolling shooter that put the player(s) in a series of areas with different landscapes to navigate through.&nbsp; Mine Storm is the built-in game that came with every Vectrex unit. In Berzerk obviously there is going to be a difference in graphics, due to the majority of the Vectrex version being in vector (the original was in raster).&nbsp;Star Trek had several brief appearances in the 1982 movie Android, which  the character of Max 404 (played by Don Keith Opper) was playing it.

      <title>Demo for the Vectrex won 1 place!</title>
      <link>http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/?content=detail&amp;id=296</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div align="justify">Students at CMU&#39;s Computer Club obviously don&#39;t see much reason for preservation if it stops them from creating demos like the one below, which <strong>recently won first place at <a href="http://www.pixelj.am/" target="_blank">PixelJam</a></strong>, a demo competition taking place at Ohio arts and technology conference Notacon. Since no compositional software exists for the system, esteemed chip musician C-Jeff composed and ported over the music from a ZX Spectrum, which has the same sound chip as the Vectrex. They then ran the resulting audio through a preamp to eliminate the harsh buzzing sound that gets mixed into the signal due to the machine&#39;s screen. The tripod camcorder recording doesn&#39;t quite fully capture the cathode rays&#39; hypnotic glow, but since the console has no video outputs it&#39;s the closest you&#39;re going to get without owning one of these rare machines.</div><div align="justify">&nbsp;</div><div align="justify">&nbsp;<div style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYYUcvPkxtg" target="_blank"><img src="http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/picts/pixelsgone.jpg" border="0" width="527" height="354" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center">&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: center">Click the image to view the demo... <br /></div></div>]]></description>

      <title>VGDB - Vectrex Game Database - relaunched</title>
      <link>http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/?content=detail&amp;id=289</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong><img src="http://vectrexmuseum.com/mirror/vgdb/picts/logo2.gif" border="0" width="402" height="112" align="top" /></strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p align="justify"><strong>Many of us have missed the VGDB - Vectrex Game Database</strong> since it disappeared more than six months ago. At the Vectrex Google Usergroup there was a long discussion of relaunching the website. Manu, the original founder sadly had no copy of the page but luckily there was a backup at webarchive.org. I got the permission by Manu to relaunch the page at vectrexmuseum.com<br /><br />A Museum preserves important data - so I thought about recovering the most missed Vectrex pages. Today the series starts with the relaunch of the updated Vectrex Game Database. Other lost pages will follow.<br /><br />I invested four days in recovering the page and need a little rest - so I added a<br /><strong>Tell a friend function so you can easily spread the word</strong> about the new VGDB. Please help me by telling your five best Vectrex friends about the relaunched VGDB.<br /><br />And now... the big moment we have been waiting for:<br /><br /><strong>relaunch VGDB at <a href="http://www.vectrexmuseum.com/mirror/vgdb/">http://www.vectrexmuseum.com/mirror/vgdb/</a></strong><br /><br />Have fun,<br /><br />Oliver</p>]]></description>

      <title>Asteroids Locator Map USA</title>
      <link>http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/?content=detail&amp;id=286</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TFvo9n1C9Ks/TGC_Y-uuYnI/AAAAAAAAAKg/7duyBXVNpGE/s320/asteroids.jpg" border="0" width="270" align="left" /></p><p><strong>Asteroids Locator Map USA </strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p align="justify">Much of arcade Asteroids&rsquo;s allure is the glowing, minimalist vector screen. Instead of a standard TV monitor, which scans from top to bottom over and over again, the vector display draws straight lines from one point to the next where needed, like an oscilloscope. It can only be a simple polygon outline of one color, but it also means that the image is sharp and bright (Asteroids&rsquo;s photon torpedoes leave a brilliant trace along the slowly-decaying phosphor of the screen), and simple to program (the video and sound data in the arcade version of Asteroids is just 2 KB of ROM code, and the game program is another 6 KB). It&rsquo;s why <a href="http://www.atariasteroids.net/location-map" target="_blank">www.atariasteroids.net</a> have the Asteroids locator on the site: to this day, no home version or variation of Asteroids really does the same thing.</p>]]></description>

I. P.) and a vector gaming forum on Yahoo! Groups (also long dead!), the vector gaming forums takes things a few steps further by also having discussions on raster vector ports and even current vector-like online and portable device/cell phone games.<br /><br />There are also forums for any kind of game console, from the oldest Pong machines to the most current gaming rigs available such as the XBox 360, but the main focus are on the beloved wire-frame games.&nbsp; And even though people who join can have whatever avatar they want (just as long as it abides by Proboards&iacute; TOS), there are currently a little over two dozen vector icons&nbsp; on the site to choose from as they wish, covering coin-op, Vectrex, raster ported, and even some current online vector-like games.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Have a look and sign in at <a href="http://vectorgaming.proboards.com/index.cgi" target="_blank">vectorgaming.proboards.com</a>, hosted by Darryl B.</p>]]></description>

      <title>Short Update by George</title>
      <link>http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/?content=detail&amp;id=260</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Hello Vectrex Fans : ), a short update by George:<br />&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br /><strong>SUNDANCE</strong><br />On schedule - just 3 weeks away! If you haven&#39;t pre-ordered yet, please do it! You get a free iron-on<br />transfer for pre-ordering. Sundance now has 4 different game modes (originally only 3 were planned).<br />The game is super fun with 1 or 2 players!<br /><a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1_1.htm" target="_blank">www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1_1.htm</a><br />&nbsp;<br /><br /><strong>WARRIOR - Last Call!</strong><br />There are 7 Warrior games remaining for pre-order, #&#39;s 93-99 (#100 was sold early by request).<br />Several people have requested that I hold a game for them, but at this point with so few remaining<br />and my desire to sell this out, payment is required. These will sell first-come first-served,<br />so please get your payment in as soon as possible. I am not planning a second run of these.<br />It&#39;s too expensive to have the overlays made with a minimum 100 units at this cost, and<br />I will not sell this game in a stripped down version primarily because the overlay defines the<br />entire play area. Please hurry!<br /><a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m1_1.htm" target="_blank">www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m1_1.htm</a><br />&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />Next email update will be when Sundance is released at the end of the month.<br />The Sundance web page will be updated prior to the release (additional screenshots, etc).<br />&nbsp;<br />George<br />]]></description>

      <title>furyunlimited - June Update</title>
      <link>http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/?content=detail&amp;id=258</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A note by George from FURY:&nbsp; </p><p><strong>WAR OF THE WORLDS</strong><br />Released! These will start shipping this weekend. I will ship them all as quickly as possible. Your patience is appreciated regarding the delayed release. I&#39;m extremely happy with this game and hope that you all enjoy it! Any new orders received will ship in July, as I will be shipping pre-ordered games for the next 3-4 weeks. <a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1_1.htm" target="_blank">http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1_1.htm</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>WARRIOR</strong><br />Update to my site coming soon, with new images. Note that due to the&nbsp;extra time that it took to complete War of the Worlds, I have moved the Warrior release to October - sorry about this! If this is a problem for any of you, you can request a refund. I have over twenty still available for pre-order. This is a limited release of 100 games.<a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m1_1.htm" target="_blank"> www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m1_1.htm</a><br />&nbsp;<br /><strong>I, CYBORG</strong><br />Due to constant inquiries, I am opening I, Cyborg up once again to orders. Specifically 50 copies, numbered 251-300. I sold 250 I, Cyborg games between &#39;04 and &#39;08. This will be identical in every way to the original release, so if you already own it there is no need to purchase it again. Consider this to be a continuation of the original release after an extended hiatus. <a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m7_1.htm" target="_blank">www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m7_1.htm</a><br />&nbsp;<br /><strong>REVIVAL</strong><br />The publisher has notified me that Issue #43 will be out soon. The print quality has been improved (yet again!). If you are a subscriber, your magazine will ship immediately after I receive them. If you&#39;re not a subscriber, become one! The deal that I offer is the best available! <a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m2_1.htm" target="_blank">www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m2_1.htm</a></p>]]></description>

      <title>FURY updates</title>
      <link>http://vectrexmuseum.com/news/?content=detail&amp;id=250</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p align="justify">A note by George from FURY: </p><p align="justify"><img src="http://www.furyunlimited.com/userfiles/marquee3.png" border="0" width="500" /><br />I&#39;ve added a screenshot to the <a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1_1.htm" target="_blank">webpage</a>, and will also add a sampling of the Tripod animation in a couple of weeks.<br />&nbsp;<br />I&#39;ve spent many hours meticulously re-creating the animation based on the Cinematronics original. I made a few minor graphical changes to better suit the Vectrex. This has taken a lot longer than anticipated, and so I must change the release to late April. My apologies, but the game will be&nbsp;worth the wait!</p><p align="justify"><br /><img src="http://www.furyunlimited.com/userfiles/zantis_logo.png" border="0" width="418" height="99" /> <br />All pre-ordered Zantis games (1st and 2nd editions) have shipped.<br />If you haven&#39;t picked up Zantis, <a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m2_1.htm" target="_blank">now is the time!</a><br /><br /><strong>CGE</strong><br />The show has been canceled this year! : (<br />I was looking forward to attending, because I wanted to<br />release this at the opening of the show...<br />&nbsp;</p><p align="justify"><img src="http://www.furyunlimited.com/userfiles/warrior_logo.png" border="0" width="660" /><br />The Vectorbeam classic! <a href="http://www.furyunlimited.com/_sgg/m1m1_1.htm" target="_blank">Announced for an August release!</a><br /><br />Updated game play includes the original 2-player game + an all new single-player campaign mode with multiple enemies! Battle the dreaded Warhorse! Annihilate the Warlok and all of his mystical powers! 7 warriors in all! Warrior will be the first Fury game to include an overlay, and will also come in an original Vectrex-style box. The game will not be released in a stripped down version for a lower price and that decision is solely based on the fact that the overlay defines the game play area in this game. It&#39;s a part of the visuals, and not merely an enhancement. I can&#39;t think of another Vectrex game where that&#39;s true (correct me if I&#39;m wrong).</p><p align="justify"><br />I won&#39;t hesitate to admit that the price is heftier than my usual game prices, but that should be expected as the overlays/boxes are being professionally manufactured. The additional amount that I&#39;m charging ($30) will barely cover the additional costs. I have already gone over this with the printing company that I&#39;m using. It all boils down to thousands of dollars that I will be fronting for this project.</p><p align="justify"><br />I recommend getting your pre-order in as soon as you can. This is a limited run of 100 games. No guarantees on a second run, which would require at least an additional 50 (over the initial 100) pre-orders for me to commit to it&nbsp;due to the minimum overlay purchase required by my printer.</p><p align="justify"><br />Pre-ordering is open! $65 + s/h ($7.50 US/CAN - $15 ALL OTHERS). Slightly higher shipping to accommodate the larger box/packaging. As always, insurance is extra. Please allow up to&nbsp;24 hours for order confirmation (includes serial #). The games will be numbered in the program, and also on the boxes this time. Like War of the Worlds, Warrior is another game that simply needed a Vectrex release and I&#39;m happy to be the one to do it! This will be my final Vectrex game release for 2011.</p>]]></description>
