Your Favourite 80's Arcade Game

Okay, going to college in the early to mid-80's, other than Thursday night's at the campus pub where they had great bands (The Spoons, Platinum Blonde, Honeymoon Suite, etc. ), the place I spent the most time in was the "games room" in the student centre. Between snooker tournaments and the arcade games, let's just say I spent more time there than doing my physics homework.

They had some of the classic arcade machines, but one in particular stood out as my favourite, and for a short period of time (very short) I had the high score on this machine. The game was known as Tempest, and it was somewhat of an addiction.......sort of like watches now.

I somehow got thinking of this game yesterday, but could not for the life of me recall the name (getting old, eh?). So after doing some searches came across the name and said "Of course!"

Here is a link with the description:

So, what was your favourite arcade game (not home video game)?
