Potential Odyssey Tape: Xxaagreus?

I found what I think could be an Odyssey tape at the pawn shop... Or could have BEEN an Odyssey tape

It's been taped over with a Buffy episode, but there's just a tiny snippet of an ad for a new arcade game called Xxaagreus. It's showing live action footage of a guy in a Greek/Roman outfit fighting a big rubber suit monster in a cave, then a logo for the game.

I seem to remember someone on another forum mentioning this game in a discussion of Deep Lake. What's the verdict: is Xxaagreus a Deep Lake thing? Do I have a tiny piece of an ad from TV Odyssey? Let me know!

So, and this is just what the arcade rat I knew told me back in '97, there was this location test for some fantasy action game happening around New Mexico and Colorado (maybe parts of the Panhandles too), sometime in '93 IIRC. Apparently they were also AB testing different names in the process, and I recognize Xxaagreus since he mentioned that a few times when we talked about the local Aladdin's Castle. Not sure if I saw an ad like that though.

Huh. Guess I'll need to pop into Vector Void or some other VG forum. Thanks!

No.

?? It's in your profile pic my guy

Some updates after doing some digging of my own on Vector Void: Xxaagreus was a cabinet made by Vertex Electronica, a company based in Deep Lake. I almost definitely found an Odyssey Tape!

There’s apparently still a running cabinet over at the Galaxia Arcade in town. Neat.

As for Ataphoi88, not sure what your deal is. I direct your attention to the rules. Don’t make me put my foot down.
