OMG, that movie defined my pre-adolescent life for a time. I think it was partially responsible for making me the geek I am today! And believe it or not, the movie still stacks up to this day as not-a-bad-wee-sci-fi.

Kudos to the guy who made this, I'd always wondered where the arcade cabinet was. I'm sure this movie would have got the sequel it so cried out for, if only they'd released the cabinet!]]>Nov 5th 2007 6:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/Nov 5th 2007 7:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/

From what I do remember you went from planet to planet cleaning off the bad guys. You'd intercept them after they made it through the outer wall, and then fight above the planet as they got closer. Its been 20 years so I don't remember much about it, except I do remember beating it.]]>Nov 5th 2007 8:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/

I went into super geek mode when I saw this. Awesome cabinet. I just downloaded the game too. That was a great movie. Groundbreaking special effects, good original story.... man hollywood is just fucked up now. Nothing out for a long time even close to this movie.

Thanks for the nostalgic flashback to childhood :)]]>Nov 6th 2007 5:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/05/the-last-starfighter-arcade-cabinet/Kodan Officer: Guidance system out. Auxiliary steering out.

I am really impressed by his 'remake'. It's funny because all of the videogame scenes in the movie were rendered on super computers back then.
