Might have been Glip. I keep trying to tell him to save his money.  |

Given 250 were made, you'd think it would crop up a bit more than other homebrews...

300, actually: 250 for the initial batch and then an extra 50 a few years later.

I think it does appear on eBay more than any other homebrew game. There's just a bit of a low in listing right now.

^ Don't get me started.  Gliptitude will be over me like a rash. If a picture paints a thousand words, here's a picture...  But hey! Each to their own! |

Its a game with very polarized reviews. Some people really like it, some people really hate it. I always think people should make up their own minds after playing.

It's an old game so you must have had it for a long time. I don't understand. What do you do with it? I'm a big fan of I,Cyborg. It's just a one of a kind in the world of video games. .. It's not necessarily a very fun game but it is bizarre and stylish and i think it has a very deep and inspired aesthetic to it. It reminds me of the movie Eraserhead, one of my favorites. |

So you've had two years. Go play it! .. Or maybe you'd like to trade or sell it to me? .. I do recommend looking up the codes though, so you can skip to all the levels. It is very difficult to proceed all the way without cheating like this. The "trench" phase is quite a sight. .. It's also worthwhile playing through the "corridor" levels to see the boss Vectoria, (although I have no idea how to defeat her). But then again it is fun to die in the corridors by getting sucked into the (burst of projecting rays). |

The first 250 carts of I, Cyborg are still the only ones which are numbered. The downside is that they all have individual keycodes for the level passwords while the second edition (251-300) have the same keycodes.

what do you mean that 251-300 are not numbered? I am in that range and it is still numbered in the ROM and displays on Vectrex. Or are you referring to something printed?
