Have there been many games from an oblique angle like Zaxxon?  Most were from the side, from straight above,  or head-on (most of the modern first-person shooters).  I mentioned I'm not much of a gamer, haven't been in an arcade in over five years and I played pinball while my first wife, her husband and La Esposa played Ski-Ball over at Coney Island.

I thought about being diplomatic and polite.  Honest, I really did.  But while I was thinking about it, I accidentally bumped the button that puts my mouth on autopilot, because it said, "That's a load of crap, Captain, and you know it".    Jim Butcher, _Small Favor_
