	Bosconian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bosconian is a multi-directional shooter arcade game that was made by Namco in 1981.
		Bosconian was one of Namco's less successful games, which is why it was not initially ported to any consoles.

		This aside, Bosconian is still the first game created with a continue function, and one of the first to incorporate synthesized voice acting.
		Rally X is similar to Bosconian in terms of how the map works, but you navigate a car through a maze to capture flags while outracing enemy cars.
		Bosconian and Rally X are almost worth it by themselves, but no retro fan will want to pass on the surprisingly elegant port of Galaga '88.

	Blast Off - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is the sequel to Bosconian, which was released 8 years earlier.
		Even though the game is the sequel to Bosconian (which used a synthesized voice saying "Blast off!" at the beginning of every round), Blast Off had more in common gameplay-wise with Namco's own Dragon Spirit than with Bosconian.
		Despite the gameplay differences, the connection with Bosconian was emphasized in the marketing of the game, with the hexagonal space stations from Bosconian appearing in the title of the game cabinet and in Namco's press literature, and also making appearances in the game itself.

		The one that everyone today seems to have forgotten about (probably because most Bosconian machines were converted to still-profitable Galaga over the years).

		Last, but by no means least comes Bosconian, an engaging cross between Asteroids and Time Pilot that takes you to the furthest reaches of the galaxy.
		This system will probably most appeal to people over the age of 25, which is a shame because it's a cheap alternative to a full-blown console for youngsters who just don't appreciate classics.
