Released in 1983, Moon Patrol is the game that proved moon driving is a terrible career choice. You control a buggy with a suspension system that would make NASA jealous, jumping over craters and shooting UFOs like it’s a day at the office. The scrolling landscape is deceptively peaceful—until meteors and aliens decide you’re target practice. It’s repetitive, yes, but in that hypnotic arcade way that keeps you hooked. Few games can make bouncing over moon rocks feel like high drama, but Moon Patrol somehow nails it.
Running this game on a 5160 XT, it intermittently bumps you back to the options screen and then locks up. Sometimes you get further than others times before it, basically crashes.
