Synopsis

Night Driver is a 1976 racing video game developed and published by Atari, Inc. for arcades. It is one of the earliest first-person racing video games and is commonly believed to be one of the first published video games to feature real-time first-person graphics. Night Driver has a black and white display with the hood of the player's car painted on a plastic overlay. The road is rendered as scaled rectangles representing "pylons" that line the edges. Two arcade cabinet styles were manufactured: upright and sit-down. The upright version has a blacklight installed inside the cabinet which illuminated the bezel. Atari published a color version for the Atari Video Computer System in 1980.
