Vectrex got no respect!

by marrone , Oct 20 '00
Pros: Self contained
Cons: too expensive
The Vectrex was definitely a game system that didn't deserve to die out so quickly. Its portability and high memory capacity (for the time) were definitely strengths. Unfortunately, it lacked a couple key features that did it in...namely color and a...

The WORLD'S ONLY vector gaming system!

by StarSoldier1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 23 '02
Pros: A piece of gaming history! The games look so smooth with those vector graphics.
Cons: IT'S NOISY! There is a buzzing sound that never goes away. Too many Asteroid clones
GCE/MILTON BAILEY'S VECTREX (November 1982 - December 1984) Perhaps the most unique gaming system I ever came across. The Vectrex is a stand alone 8-bit (6809 processor with a 1.5Mhz clock speed) game system that only uses vector lines (not ...

My experiences with the Vectrex

by Dragon7398 , Sep 12 '00
Pros: Easy to transport, game built in, few confusing cords
Cons: Smaller game selection, not currently made.
When I was younger, I didn't have, or really need, fancy systems like the NES. Quite simply, our main gaming system, was the Vectrex. While now, I'm more a player of the PSX than anything else, is it any surprise that I still have a Vectrex in my room,...

Evolution of Console Gaming: Chapter 3

by fm_hunter Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Aug 24 '00
Pros: Good game play, easily portable
Cons: Average graphics, poor sound
Even though the Vectrex was released in 1982, it wasn’t until 1984 that I had the opportunity to use this console. Since I had already owned a Colecovision, I had high expectations for any home gaming system that I played. The first thing...

Ahead of its time, sometimes too far

by spicelab , Aug 29 '00
Pros: unique, controller ahead of its time
Cons: few games, all in one unit
The console gaming industry went down a lot of blind alleys and dead ends during this period. The Vectrex is an example of one of these. Milton-Bradley tried to move in a lot of new directions with this unit, some were interesting, so were merely...

Vectrex "Protector" review by Daniel Foot.

by nubian , Apr 19 '03
Pros: Mega-fast, smooth scrolling and engaging mini-game
Cons: No in-game music
The packaging is professional right down to the robust black box and the etched Protector symbol proclaiming the games individuality. Inside an original vectrex cartridge, and although it looks brand new, must date back to sometime in the 1980's....
