Retro Games : Midway's Defender

Do any of u guys remeber the '80's arcade game, Defender. Boy the amount of 10p I shoved in this game was unreal. Anyway I found it recently on www.midway.com under the 'Play Classic Games' section.

And I just scored 115,475 not bad since I'm playing on a keyboard.

Not that any of u lot care, thought I'd tell ya anyway !! lol

I was a BIG fan of this game.....it was almost too intense!!!

U had 2...avoid the landscape, kill alien spacecraft, save the
humans that were abducted...the warp option was cool, sometimes. lol
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

smart bombs??? No wonder I was never any good at this game!
I was especially bad at shooting the aliens and then snatching up
the humans...I killed many a human during my game days.
