20th Century Fox made games from 1982 to 1984 with most of them coming out in 83. This is a game company which came a bit too late to the video game industry and tried to capitalize on their movies. A lot of these were clones of existing games, but they were done well enough.
The most interesting thing to me was the story about how they tried to get Howard Scott Warshaw and Todd Frye to leave Atari and work for them. This would have helped them out, but I think the writing was still on the wall as far as the home console market in the early 80s.

Is there a movie from the 70s or 80s which should have been a video game?
Great stuff!! I’m loving these history episodes.
