I hear that the emulation isn't that good but I WANT THE DAMN THING
NOW. I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Also can't wait for the XBOX version. That will be sweet. I was on
XBOX365.com the other day and a few people brought up how they are
anxiously waiting for it in forums. Heres to hoping that Intellivision
productions has a winner on its hands.

I just picked up the Intv 25/1 tonight at KB. Haven't had the chance to
fiddle with it yet. Will put a review up on the IntvGN when I get the
opportunity to play with it.

Which state are you in?
I have been checking every so often in New Jersey and can't seem to
find it.

Is it those things that look like a joystick game controller with a bunch of
games built in?

I saw one here in Canada in Walmart but it did not say where the games came
from originally.
Anyone got any pics of the box/packaging?
Thanks

I picked it up from Kay-Bee the other day, It's cool because it's an
Intellivision product but the emulation isn't that great and the
sounds completely suck. In shark Shark the fish move so slow that it
(no exaggeration) takes about 1 minute for the shark to swim across
the screen. Space Battle is actually pretty good though. I advise
everyone to pick it up because it is only $19.99 and would really help
keep Intellivision Productions on the map.

MAKE SURE TO PICK UP YOUR COPY OF INTELLIVISION LIVES ON THE XBOX or
LAMESTATION2. Did anyone else hear that both versions willl get 3
exclusive unrealeased games each? I know Deep Pockets is only on
Lamestation and Space Cadets is only on XBOX but I forgot the other
four.

The Xbox version OWNS. I haven't been able to get the direct to tv unit
in Canada, can't find anyone who carries it. I can say however, that
the Intellivision Lives! for Xbox is excellent. They did a very good
job of mapping the Xbox controller for the different games. There are a
few which are clumsy, but overall it's a damned good port. Much better
than the freeware emulators that require your Xbox to be modded. 60
games for $20 USD, you can't go wrong.

Direct to TV REALLY SUCKS.. The Atari,Activision,Namco ones by Jakks
Pacific are 99.99% accurate emulators. Intellivision Diect to TV is so
piss poor its amazing (Still get it though to support the brand.) I
was really impressed with Lives on XBOX. I pray that it actually sold
well (It was on the top ten most wanted list at Virgin Megastore for a
month so it had to sell average at least) this way they also release
Intellivision Rocks.
