Remember the dual-joystick shooter boom that happened alongside the rise of the Xbox 360? Xbox Live Arcade made a lot of those games possible, but none of it would've happened if not for Robotron: 2084. The 1982 arcade release popularized the dual-stick format... though you wouldn't really see a more dual-joystick games out there until Eugene Jarvis made another one in 1990, Smash TV. These days, everything from Geometry Wars to Vampire Survivors owes a little something to this Williams classic.
