This video features gameplay from the various ports of Sega's breakthrough isometric shooter arcade game Zaxxon. It was the first game to employ axonometric projection, which lent its name to the game (AXXON from AXONometric projection). The type of axonometric projection is isometric projection: this effect simulates three dimensions from a third-person viewpoint.
Please note: Re-releases and virtual console versions are not included.

The Atari 2600 and Intellivision ports use a third-person, behind-the-ship perspective instead of the isometric graphics of the other versions.

This is one strange port as you can see from the footage. I have included only a short preview because the gameplay is really horrible.
