    Do You Remember The Name Of This 80's Video Game

    It was an arcade game. I'm pretty sure it was never released in a home video version.

    It was a two-player only game (couldn't play it solo which was unusual) with basic line style graphics. It had two space ships pitted against each other over a basic space background. One of the ships looked like a rudimentary Enterprise while the other looked like a triangle. Maybe like the Star Trek insignia.

    If you shot one of the opposing ships in the rear, one of its two rear parts would come off. Once they were gone, you couldn't fly any more and were a sitting duck. If you were hit from the front, you were destroyed. The lines that made up your ship basically came apart.

    Ok, that's what I remember. Anyone recall the name of it?

    Space War? It was released in 1977.

    Info: Video has been re-uploaded for its correct aspect ratio.The first arcade game to have vector (wireframe) graphics. The game looks similar to the origin...

        That's it! I'm not surprised I didn't remember such a generic name. Thanks.
