First released on the Atari 8 bit platform, this later CoCo 3 exclusive has the best cockpit graphics. But can it push the smooth framerate of the original?

Greetings everyone and welcome to ARG 161!  This time out, we dust off our keyboards and do some coding...well sorta!  It's TYPE-IN GAMES this week!  That means Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT are typing games into a computer and playing them..it's that simple!  Join us on a trip back in time, with the help of Rainbow Magazine, and type and play 'Gopher' It! and Gopher Smash!

While this week’s game isn’t trash, we’ll spend some time picking it up while discussing a classic Activision game for the Commodore 64, PARK PATROL

The rotating towers in Nebulus were impressive, but does the game stand up to the visuals?
