Battlezone was named #20 in the “Top 25 Atari 2600” Games poll in Retro Gamer Magazine (Issue 46).

Development of the original Battlezone coin-op was a team effort: Morgan Hoff was the project leader; Jed Margolin handled electrical engineering; Ed Rotberg programmed it; Roger Hector modelled all 3D objects as minimally as possible, and Howie Delman's vector-graphics generator was used.

Owen Rubin kept pestering Ed to make the volcano on the horizon active; Ed brushed him off, challenging Owen to write the code for the volcano himself if he felt so strongly about it. The next morning, there it was sitting on his desk.
