Watch This Thing - News feature for 1985's Halcyon Laserdisc Video Game system


Laserdisc games outside of the arcade never really happened, but it wasn't for RDI's lack of trying, as they released the Halcyon gaming system in 1985 at a perfectly reasonable $2500 price point.  This ad features the gameplay of their NFL Football game which seems, well, technically interactive, anyway.  Rick Dyer, the system's creator, was one of the men behind "Dragon's Lair."  He did not find repeated success here.
