About Into The Vertical Blank
A Podcast about growing with a twin brother up In the 70s and 80s, at the dawn of video games, navigating family strife, punk rock, Star Wars obsessions, and trying to understand the world while developing an inexplicable love for everything “Atari”. -- In this podcast we discuss Atari computers and systems, new and old, review new games we collect, talk about all the systems, and the significance they had in our lives and the lives of others, and even talk about them in an historical context with the backdrop the times they were released, and how they are being used now. We do all this in an effort to finally understand the answer to this existential question: what does it mean to have grown up in the generation of "the Vertical blank." Credits: Written, Engineered and Produced by Jeff Fulton @8bitrocket With help from Steve Fulton @fultonbot Branding by Daryl Litts @daryllitts

#164:ST Show: 25 Great Atari ST Games not on the Amiga
Published 4 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Number 13, let's get to number 13. Star Raiders, 1986 game by Atari Corp. It's a follow-up to the Atari 8-bit classic and could actually be called Star Raiders 2, to me at least. It's a great graphic and sound update that keeps the original game intact without adding a bunch of unneeded or overly complex gameplay to the original mix. ST magazines like ST Action didn't give it much of a chance, but the French ST magazine loved it and gave it 83%. Atari 8-bit fans who loved the original were really happy to have an old friend on their new 16-bit computer. This is in my all-time top 10 Atari ST games. […]
