Berzerk is a shoot-‚em-up arcade game developed and published by Stern Electronics in 1980. The company sold about 39,000 Berzerk machines, is written on Wikipedia. One of these survived in the Museum in Ibi 🙂 and I had the pleasure, to get my hands on it?
Btw did you know? Berzerk is often mentioned as the first video game to be involved in the death of a player. In January 1981, 19-year-old Jeff Dailey died of a massive heart attack shortly after reaching a score of 16660. In October 1982, 18-year-old Peter Burkowski died of a heart attack after putting his initials in the high score list of a Berzerk machine twice within 15 minutes. I didn’t?
