INTELLIVISION SPACE SPARTANS VIDEO GAME

When it comes to Star Wars knock-offs on the Intellivision home video game console, Star Strike takes the cake (I wanna do a post on that someday), but there's another game that delves into that galaxy far, far away... and it talks!





It's Space Spartans, which features an X-wing-like ship on the front of the box.



The package opens up book-style, allowing us to see the game itself and the overlays that fit onto the controller. Man, those overlays... I'm sure glad Nintendo never did anything like that.



Taking a look at the booklet, we see a swarm of TIE fighters.



You can see the 1982 date in the shot below, too.



Though I'm lucky enough to own an Intellivision console and this game, I still can't play it, not until I get an Intellivoice Voice Synthesis Module. It's this thing that you'd put into the Intellivision and it'd create creepy robotic-y sounding speech, something that every kid wants in their game, right? Well, apparently not, 'cause only five games worked with the Intellivoice!
