I realize Star Wars is a more valuable game and i'm extremely fond of atari vectors but wanted honest opinions on what is a better game. I honestly like robotron a lot more, anyone else?
 
Robotron would be fun, really faced paced action, but my heart lies with the whole ambience which comes with a Star Wars. Music, voices, sound effects, cabinet arts, yoke style, vector glow, etc all add to the game before you even get down to talking about the gameplay.
 
definitely robotron. star wars isn't fun enough for me to own, unless i had a lot of cash lying around and nothing better for me to do with it.
 
Robotron : 2084, an Epic survival game. Star Wars is not nearly as comparable in terms of gameplay, but respectable.
 
This is totally a personal decision. Both are great games and offer very different types of gameplay, one is an Atari Vector, the other a Williams classic.

For me personally, I remember playing Star Wars in the arcade as a kid, and I put a lot of quarters in it, so the classic star wars sounds and speech and Vector play are special to me.

I love robotron and have it on one of my multi's, but doesn't have that "take me back in time" feeling for me personally. I didn't play it very much as a kid, so the art and sounds don't have the same effect as a SW machine does...
 
Own both and play Star wars alot more. Always trying to beat my high score on Hard level. This game does hold up very well, to my surprise - didnt think it would keep my interest for so long now.

Robotron is a good game, i just dont think its as good as the good old SW.
 
I play my Star Wars for fun factor. I strictly play my Robotron because I am trying to top my high score. So with me, its fun gameplay vs addicting gameplay.
 
Robotron is more fun to me. Star Wars would get more play with 90% of the people who come over because it seems familiar.
 
I couldn't decide, so I MAME'd my Star Wars to play SW and Robotron. Turned out pretty good.
