Gun Fight was the first shooter where you control a human, and was originally based on discrete logic, but when Midway adapted it for the US version, they recreated it using an Intel 8080 CPU, which apparently made it the first arcade game to use a microprocessor. The Gun Fight ROMs are 4096 b total, exactly the half the size of the Space Invaders ROMs. A few notable features of the game is animated human characters, aimable guns, and destructible environments.

Facts

  • This game has music! It plays the Chopin's Piano Sonata no. 2, 'The Funeral March' when a player character is shot.


    Correction: This game does not have music, it was a error on the MAME developers part that accidentally added the 'Boot Hill' music hardware to 'Gun Fight'
