Star Wars - Episode 167

Podouken

About

Remember, the Force will be with you, always. The vector series continues with one of the best arcades to ever do it - Atari's Star Wars.

What very Star Trek name did Star Wars originally go by before Atari gained the license from Lucasfilm? How did a focus group give us one of the top arcade grails ever? Did we discover a hidden and somewhat obscene new arcade cabinet format? How many parcels make up a parsec?

Ready we are to answer questions like what is our "white whale" of a game, do we pause for refreshments when recording an episode, and which of the three of us are responsible for the most edits?
