| | Granny Vinnie Reviews Ballblazer for the Atari 7800 |
 | | Regardless, the game of Ballblazer in its most basic form is a variant of the game of soccer: shoot a ball through your opponent's goal. | | | Ballblazer is another one of those "7800/Atari" only games that are both quirky and unique. | | | Ballblazer really is just Sci-fi air hockey from the paddle's point of view....take away the drops of sweat splattering the playing surface and the loud CLANKS of the discs slamming into the goal. |

| | Phosphor Dot Fossils Atari 5200 Ballblazer |
| | Anyone trying to learn to play Ballblazer against a computerized opponent is likely to become discouraged very quickly; two players can take their time with it. | | | Atari quickly snatched up the rights to the first two Lucasfilm Games titles, Ballblazer and Rescue On Fractalus, and made the games available for just about every computer and game platform they manufactured except the 2600. | | | If you want to glean the most information out of the docs, you have to have the patience to read through all of the story, the jokes, and pick out what parts of the text are actually relevant to playing the game. |

| | Ballblazer also includes the best computer opponent I've ever seen in a game. | | | Ballblazer is designed so that you can find the best way of playing. | | | The length of time a game is played over can vary between one and ten minutes, but wherever you go in the universe, there's only one regulation Ballblazer game -- three minutes, two players, one victor... |

| | BallBlazer also gets high marks for Challenge and Replay Value, since in a single-player game, you can select from 9 different intelligence levels for your "Droid" opponent. | | | Level 1 is like playing a snail - a no-brainer. | | | The flipping around can be a little disorienting at times, but for the most part, it's pretty clear which direction you need to go. |

| | CVG Nexus: Ballblazer Review |
| | Ballblazer is, quite simply, one of the finest games out there for the Atari 7800. | | | The game, which was licensed and sold as an Atari product, was created by Lucasfilm Games. | | | The graphics are fantastic, the controls are responsive and the game play is simple and addictive. |

| | Ballblazer was created by the Lucasfilm Computer Division Games Group. | | | Wherever you go, there's one regulation Ballblazer game--three minutes, two players, one victor. | | | Your opponent has the ball and is quickly approaching the Goalbeams (6). |

| | Although a player can choose to play the computer in Ballblazer, the game is primarily designed for two people. | | | Ballblazer forces the player to think about his or her opponent. | | | The real fun comes from playing with other people." |

| | Each player controls a small ship called a Rotofoil which is used to move the ball around the field. | | | With it's split-screen two player action, first person perspective, and kick ass musical score (one of the first to be scored by a profession musician), Ballblazer was light-years ahead of its time. | | | However LucasFilm went on to publish several more games for the Atari 8-bit computer line under their own name. |

| | BallBlazer Champions review @ www.vidgames.com/dvd |
| | I've found the closest to the original Ballblazer feel to be setting the D-Pad on forward-back-strafe-strafe, using Rotosnap to turn as necessary. | | | To answer the question that was on my mind between the time I knew BC existed and the first time I played it, yes, it's Ballblazer. | | | Hopefully, when updating a game, you keep the basic gameplay, the "feel" of the game, intact while adding features that would have been impossible way back when. |

| | BallBlazer Champions review @ www.vidgames.com/dvd |
| | Having played the original Ballblazer on my old Atari 130xe twelve years ago, this was one title I've waited a long time for. | | | Basically if you like challenging two player games, you can't go wrong with Ballblazer Champions. | | | The graphics are quite good; the sound is good; music is decent; and the game is still a lot of fun to play. |

| | Ballblazer Champions Review for PlayStation at GameSpot |
| | In addition to being a great game on its own, Ballblazer also comes through with the all important head-to-head play — greatly adding to the game's long term play value. | | | If you've been looking for a game that you can use to get a tourney started, or you're just into solid action games, Ballblazer is just what the doctor ordered. | | | You pick out one of eight basic rotofoils, jump into one of over a dozen arenas, and attempt to put a glowing ball into a goal. |

| | Strapped into a hovercraft-like Rotofoil, players battled opponents to snare a floating ball called a Plasmorb, which could then be fired or carried into the opponent's goal. | | | Created in partnership with Atari and later published by Epyx, both games were officially introduced to the media in January 1984 during a press conference in which the Games Group was officially announced as Lucasfilm Games. | | | Ballblazer played like a futuristic version of Pong crossed with soccer. |

| | 8-Bit Product Reviews: Smart 1030, Ballblazer, Rescue on Fractalus, Adventure Master, Maxwell Manor |
| | It is a vast, intricate maze game with much mood and some advanced touches, but ultimately it is not that different from, many other arcade games. | | | From the exquisite animation while the program loads, to the music and the actual playing, these games help define the awe of the art. | | | Antic first descibed these games in an August, 1984 cover story. |

| | BallBlazer - they ships and the level had force fields, according to the manual, but it was not displayed in the game. | | | Sounds like Ballblazer, cept I cant remember any sort of 'force field'. | | | BallBlazer was also on Spectrum and there was an updated (pretty neat-looking) version for 16-bit home computers. |

| | The good news is that even pirated copies of early versions of the games receive rave reviews. | | | Among our innovations in game design is an increased focus on sound and music, One example is the music score for BALLBLAZER which not only responds to game-play and provides vital status cues, but is also constantly improvised by an algorithmic composition scheme. | | | It came in a sexy black box and included 8x10 glossies of game models, half a dozen press releases, fact sheets, and even a cassette tape of the Theme from BallBlazer, "Song of the Grid." More about the Press Kit here. |
