2) Intellivision info
-----------------------------------
The Intellivision system was released in 1979, being one of the very first
video game consoles ever, beaten only by the Atari 2600, Pong, and Odyssey. It
was superior to all its predecessors, however, but costed $299!! Also, the
Intellivision was the first to offer a wide variety of educational software.
It used special controls with 1-9 number pads (like a remote control) and
D-pads. Each game came with an overlay for the controllers, themed for the
game, to let the players know which button did what for that particular game.
There have been few Intellivision compilations before Intellivision Lives! and
this is by far the biggest one, with over 60 games to play. Just for fun, the
games that are in this $20 PS2 title would have costed upwards of $3,000 when
they first came out. Plus, the system itself was $300. Considering that,
Intellivision Lives! has a reasonable price tag ;)

4) Individual game FAQs/Walkthroughs
-----------------------------------
Intellivision Lives! splits up the games into seven different categories:
space, arcade, gaming, sports, combat & sorcery, kids, and unreleased.
Here is a key to some of the terms I'll be using:
*Keypad interaction*
By pushing the select button during the game, a keypad similar to the original
Intellivision one will appear on the screen. From there, you can choose one of
the 1-9 buttons. In some games, you need to do this. There is also a way to
use the right analog stick, but that gets too confusing and it messes up a lot.
In some instances, you need to choose a level of difficulty or speed before the
game actually starts by using the keypad (I've denoted these games with the
word "Preliminary" under the Keypad interaction section). Ususally, the game
will prompt you, asking you to enter a difficulty level. However, sometimes,
it will not prompt you, and you are stuck with the default settings. I point
out which games have this problem.
When I say "in-game", that means you will actually have to toggle between the
keypad and the regular PS2 controls during the actual game.
*Original Copyright*
This is the year the game was copyrighted -- it's generally a year before the
game actually came out.
As of right now, I do not have detailed walkthroughs for every game. Stay
tuned for those!
*Voice*
Some games had voice synthesis in them (meaning, they talked). This was pretty
monumental back then, so Intellivision made a big point out of it.
-4.1 "Space" games-
**Astromash**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted)
-Summary: This is kind of an "updated" version of Space Invaders. Instead of
the columns and rows of enemies, however, they float around the screen in all
directions.
**Space Armada**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: This is the classic Space Invaders game. Just shoot the rows of
enemies, being careful not to let them reach the bottom of the screen.
**Space Battle**
-Original Copyright: 1979
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: In-game
-Summary: In Space Battle, you want to keep aliens, which appear on the edges
of the screen, from coming to the center of the screen, by attacking them.
**Space Hawk**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted)
-Summary: It is just like the classic "Asteroids" game. Shoot the incoming
objects from all angles.
**Space Spartans**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: Space Spartans is mainly a first-person space shooter game.
-Voice: This game had synthesized voice in it.
**Star Strike**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted); in-game (just to change speed)
-Summary: One of the very first "3D" games, this was a space-shooter game,
similar to some Star Wars shooter games out there.
-4.2 "Arcade" games-
**Bomb Squad**
-Original Copyright: 1982
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary & in-game
-Summary: Bomb Squad is a complex "break the code" game.
**Buzz Bombers**
-Original Copyright: 1982
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: None
-Summary: This is another Space Invaders variation. Instead of the little
alien guys, though, there are bees.
**Racing Cars**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-It's basically a race -- for 1-player mode, it's a "beat the clock" exercise.
It's a lot like Pole Position, except the entire thing is from a bird's eye
view. It's very fun and addictive in my opinion.
**Night Stalker**
-Original Copyright: 1982
-Players: 1
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted)
-Summary: It's all about finding your way through a maze (from a bird's eye
view) and taking care of the obstacles throughout.
**Pinball**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: It's your basic pinball game. It's not a very big table, but there
are enough bumpers and such to keep you entertained.
**Shark! Shark!**
-Original Copyright: 1982
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: It's a very unique game in which you must eat fish smaller than you
to gain points. Hit a bigger fish and you die. However, once you eat enough
small fish, you grow, and can now eat fish that would have killed you before.
**SNAFU**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: Again, a very cool game. It is a multiple-player "Snake" game. If
you're unfamiliar with snake, you move along the game area and your tail grows
the more you play. Hit a wall or part of your tail and you're out. SNAFU
takes that concept and puts three other "snakes" in the game. Now you have to
watch out for them too! The non-human players are AI-controlled.
**Thin Ice**
-Original Copyright: 1983
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: As Duncan the penguin (an avid ice skater), you must skate around
enemies in a rectangle to make the ice fall out from under them, thus killing
them. Watch out for the purple seal and white polar bear though!
**Vectron**
-Original Copyright: 1982
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary
-Summary: In sort of a first-person shooter game, you must "fend off the
nasties."
-4.3 "Gaming" games-
Unless it really needs one, I'm not going to write a summary about these games,
as they are just games like Checkers and Blackjack, with no variation from the
board games.
**Backgammon**
-Original Copyright: 1978
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted)
**Checkers**
-Original Copyright: 1979

-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted, but you need to use it to start
the game)
**Horseracing**
-Original Copyright: 1980
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary & in-game (just to check past records)
**Las Vegas Poker & Blackjack**

Blackjack, you need two controllers plugged in to your PS2 console.

-Keypad interaction: In-game (just to place bets)
**Reversi**
-Original Copyright: 1981

change the suit to when you lay an 8 in Crazy Eights)
-Summary: It contains four classic card games: Crazy Eights, Rummy, Gin Rummy,
and Hearts.
-4.4 "Sports" games-
The "Sports" arcade machine has, by far, the most games in it. They are
actually split up into sub-categories (by sport type).
BASEBALL
**Baseball**
-Original Copyrigt: 1978
-Players: 2 only
-Keypad interaction: In-game
-Summary: It's a basic baseball game. With the keypad, you're able to throw to
whoever you want, making it a little easier (depending on how you look at it)
thank some baseball video games.
**World Championship Baseball**
-Original Copyright: 1983
-Players: 1 or 2
-NOTE: I'm actually having trouble getting this game to work. If anyone can
help me out, please e-mail me at markraby86@hotmail.com.
BASKETBALL
**Basketball**
-Original Copyright: 1978
-Players: 2 only
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary & In-game (very vital part of the game)
-Summary: Again, it's just basketball. And again, with the keypad, it makes
passing a little easier.

more options to choose from.
BOWLING
**Bowling**
-Original Copyright: 1980
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary & In-game (just to check score or change
settings)
-Summary: It's your basic bowling game. For the time, it had an impressive
amount of options (i.e. Ball weight, right or left handed, etc.) The actual
physics is not perfect though.
BOXING
**Boxing**
-Original Copyright: 1980
-Players: 2 only
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (some unprompted) & In-game (very vital part

-Keypad interaction: Preliminary & In-game (to choose clubs)
**Chip Shot: Super Pro Golf**
-Original Copyright: 1987

it is now only for 1 or 2 players...
HOCKEY
**Hockey**
-Original Copyright: 1979
-Players: 2 only
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted)

(As opposed to most games that are only 3)

SOCCER
**Soccer**
-Original Copyright: 1979
-Players: 2 only

video games.

-Players: 2 only
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary (unprompted) and in-game (just to choose your

pepindicular to it, as some Tennis video games are)
TRACK & FIELD
**Super Pro Decathalon**
-Original Copyright: 1988

-Summary: It's a whole bunch of sporting events back-to-back. It's one of the
few games in Intellivision Lives! for more than two players.
VOLLEYBALL

each other out.
**Battle Tanks**
-Original Copyright: 1981

less impressive. It's a lot like its Atari 2600 counterpart.
**Biplanes**
-Original Copyright: 1981
-Players: 2 only
-Keypad interaction: Preliminary

shot by your opponent as well.

wreck havoc on the harbor.
**Thunder Castle**
-Original Copyright: 1982
-Players: 1 or 2
-Keypad: Preliminary
-Summary: This game is quite interesting. I find it as a take on Pac-Man, but

Pac-Man.
