Classic Game Room was the FIRST classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999. Returning in 2008 with new episodes, Classic Game Room breaks out a review of MOON PATROL for the Atari 2600 VCS video game console system. Moon Patrol is a classic arcade hit from the 1980′s and a fantastic retro video game. This game is very unique and combines SHMUP elements with a horizontal side scroller, science fiction action adventure game and a vertical shooter like Space Invaders. Drive your moon buggy across the lunar surface and dodge craters, boulders, enemy space ships and tanks. Moon Patrol is awesome in every way, catch MOONPATROLFEVER baby! Why is this game not being remade into a new game with great gameplay on the Xbox 360 Live Arcade XBLA, Playstation 3 PS3 or Wii? Be sure to watch the original Classic Game Room episodes.

What’s funny is the Pause button on the 7800 is actually the 2600′s Color/B&W switch. I think a slight mod is needed to keep the switch in another position.

According to Wikipedia, the MOS 6507 is an 8-bit CPU.

There is a sound track in the 2600 version you had to set the difficulty switch to either A or B to get the music

Some games just should not be played again here in the modern era. It rocked in the arcade, but not so much on the 2600.

this version of the game does have a soundtrack, you have to set the left difficulty switch to expert. the right difficulty switch controls the difficulty.

One of my 2600 favorites. I played this game to death as a kid.
Great review.

Great game but this sucks on the Atari 2600. Big time. Any of the 8-bit versions (C-64 comes to mind) are far superior.

Man, some of the late-period (1983-84) 2600 games are a revelation. I had already moved on to Colecovision and my TI 99 computer by then, so I never saw Millipede or Moon Patrol here for the Atari. GOOD translations!
It’s amazing how far the designers had learned to take the 2600′s limited hardware by this time.
… and then the bottom dropped out.
