		Starcade Central was loaded with games and the panoramic images of such a mint collection (they were brand new of course) is sure to illicit a pavlovian response from collectors and enthusiasts alike.
		Starcade contestants were presented with an array of challenges they must meet in order to compete for various prizes, culminating of course in the grand prize, which was generally a full-sized arcade game.
		While watching Starcade contestant’s race for points against classic arcade machines may be a spectator competition reserved only for fans who grew up in Starcade’ s heyday, video game competition is quickly becoming a viable career route for some fast-fingered gamers on today’s console games.

	RetroBlast! - The History of Starcade (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		We did air Starcade a few more times in Fresno, Santa Barbara and some of the smaller markets in California where we did get some decent ratings, but we could not get Starcade picked up so, back to the drawing board.
		Starcade was the second TV show that they had acquired.
		Starcade’s ratings went as high as a 7.8 nationally and that was good for our coverage.

	Starcade
		What 'Starcaders’ most likely remember were the special theme shows.
		Starcade was broadcast on WTBS on Saturday mornings at 9:00AM eastern.
		Even though Starcade’s ratings were good sponsor apathy, Turner’s desire to continue trying new programming, and the overall decline in the video game market all contributed to the show’s demise.

	Starcade - Get Pac-Man fever: Classic 'VideoGame Show' on DVD!
		Starcade was a game show that ran for two seasons in the early '80s, where contestants competed by answering trivia questions about video games to earn the right to play the coin-ops they were best at, and then by playing the games and trying to score the most points.
		You can see many of those arcade games once more in the "Game Movies" section of Starcade web site, the official web site of the series which was hosted by Mark Richards during its first year, and then veteran game show host Geoff Edwards for its second year.
		At this time the Starcade website's store is selling episodes of the series on DVD, via direct sale.

	Starcade
		A second pilot was produced for NBC a year later, in 1982, this time w/veteran emcee Alex Trebek at the helm; the network passed, but the Arthurs managed to strike a deal with Atlanta superstation WTBS, which picked it up at the very end of the year w/Mark Richards as host.
		However, Richards' inexperience showed; he was often decried by "Starcade" fans for being "snooty" toward contestants who didn't play well, and combined w/the displeasure expressed by TBS head honcho Ted Turner at his performance, he was replaced by veteran Geoff Edwards when the show moved into syndication.
		During the Edwards era, one regular feature was the "Starcade Hotline", a news update-style segment just prior to the 3rd round, showing some video game-related news, or maybe a behind-the-scenes peek at the show.

	Page 6 - Issue 7 - Starcade's Savage Pond
		On the one hand the review should flow easily because the game is such a joy but on the other it is difficult because you cannot make comparisons with other games.
		This is as far removed as you can get from the world of aliens, guns and violence yet it maintains all of the excitement and edge of the seat involvement of the classic arcade games.
		Buy it and sit back proudly knowing that one of the most original games ever written for the Atari was written here in Britain by a young programmer who must surely have a bright future.

	Memphilter: Starcade
		The creators of the 80's gameshow Starcade have made a fantastic site dedicated to the show.
		Here you can see clips from some of the shows, watch commercials from some of its old sponsors, catch up with many of its contestants, and drool over the fabulous prizes just like you did when you were 10.
		I've never even seen Starcade until now (Starcade was on TBS from '83 to '85).

	The Mike The Pod Review: Starcade!
		Anyhoo, I did happen to watch "Starcade", which was a video-game based game show circa 1984 (the year, not the dystopian allegory).
		"Starcade" is hilarious, from the moment the opening theme song kicks up, and you realize it's that same stammering "Blinded By The Light" keyboard lick that was an integral part of every single song in the 1970s.
		Starcade, with your host Geoff Edwards, can be seen on the cable channel G4.

		There is a big section where the producers are trying to catch up with all the contestants.

		Each glorious episode of Starcade opens up with a wide shot of the Starcade back-room.
		Whoever has the highest score goes on to the final round where the contestant must beat an 'average' score taken from over 20 players on any of the unplayed games to win, in most cases, a full-sized arcade game cabinet.

		Starcade was a game show that launched around 1983, played on Saturday mornings, and now replays on G4 Network (the all-gaming TV channel that Comcast is merging with TechTV).
		Show contestants played videogames to win fabulous prizes -- everything from video arcade games to the infamous "Mister Disc," as well as swank Wrangler jean jackets and my favorite -- "a trip to Hawaii and a roll of quarters."

		To those of you who watched Starcade or have been catching the reruns on G4 TV, there are far fewer Mark Richards shows than Geoff Edwards, but Richards' show was in many ways better.
		I would be delighted to attend the Friday night banquet as well as the Saturday and Sunday activities you have planned and to meet and mingle with Starcade viewers.

		If you're talking about the show on WTBS, back in the 80's, with Geoffery Lewis as the host, yes, I remember it.
		He looked out of place on Starcade, talking to the juvenile contestants.
		A friend of mine told me that Lewis was talking to one of the contestants, who wore glasses.

		Though there are many individuals who would rather that the 1980s had never happened, it is a verifiable fact that they did, and the decade certainly left behind a veritable treasure trove of cultural artifacts that are now being discovered by the younger set.
		One such product that has found its way onto the web is the curious television show Starcade.
		The showýs rather novel (at least at the time) premise was that contestants would play video games for various prizes.

		5-02-02, 04:16 PM Hey, just wanted to let everyone know that there's a new cable channel called G4 (on most Comcast systems as well as a few others) that is rebroadcasting old Starcade episodes.
		For those who have a foggy memory, Starcade was a syndicated game show from the early '80s (most people saw it on WTBS) in which 2 contestants would play video games against each other.
		G4 is a new channel owned by Comcast (which explains why it's mostly just on Comcast cable systems at this point.) I would call your cable company and request it.
