	Phoenix (arcade game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Phoenix is a popular shoot 'em up arcade game created and manufactured by Amstar Electronics (which was located in Phoenix, Arizona) in 1980, and licensed to Centuri for US distribution, and to Taito for Japanese distribution.
		Phoenix was one of the first full color arcade games, along with Galaxian, so at the time it stood out.
		Phoenix is a very popular game for graphing calculators; it is one of the most common programs for the TI-83, TI-84, and TI-86 models.

		Phoenix adds to the basic formula by including large multi-part enemies (the 'Phoenixes' themselves), a "shield" button (that takes seven seconds to "regenerate" after use) and a large mothership level.
		Despite its hardware issues, Phoenix's many gameplay innovations ensured that it now is rightly regarded as a classic and, along with Taito's "Space Invaders" and Namco's "Pac-Man" shares the dubious honour of being one of the most cloned games of the 1980s; with numerous console and home computer 'tributes' appearing.

	The Atari Times - 2600 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Phoenix for the 2600, of course, was Atari's port of the Centuri arcade game which arrived in 1980.
		While Phoenix was never a huge hit along the lines of Space Invaders, Galaxian or the fantastic Galaga, it still attracted enough attention to become a port on the 2600.
		Once nice touch about the game is the "shimmering" background music which injected a sense of urgency into the arcade game was preserved well in the 2600 port of Phoenix.

	Welcome to Phoenix Arcade!
		In 1980, Darin Jacobs caught the "Pacman Fever" that was sweeping the nation.
		Young Darin was so devoted to the game that while his parents were on a Hawaiian vacation, Darin took the $1,300 he was saving for his first car (money earned from years of delivering paper, cutting lawns and shoveling snow) and convinced the local arcade vendor to sell him a used Pacman game.
		Helping his son load the game into the gentlemen's truck, Darin’s father told the passer-by he was as much of a fool as his son was.

		Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operatos might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up.
		Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector.

		Some would argue that an adequate 3D helicopter combat game has yet to be released for video game consoles.
		The story behind Operation Phoenix is a common one, but considering the current world events, it will likely strike a chord with players.
		It certainly deprives the game of a great deal of action, but it also increases the tension during play and the payoff when a mission is finally completed.

	Bandits: Phoenix Rising (pc: 2003): Reviews
		We are well aware that this game has a very simple story, but thanks to the crazy action, a competent AI and great graphics and music, it managed to create an interesting and involving atmosphere which will make you eagerly anticipate what comes next.
		The game's arcade-like action can be fun at times, but its difficulty level and lack of mid-mission saves will quickly make it too frustrating for many players.
		Great game load times are a bore but the game has sweet graphics, sound and for 20 buck who cares.
