Gun Fight
1975 · Arcade · Taito
Gun Fight is a 1975 multidirectional shooter arcade video game released by Midway in North America. It is based on Western Gun, designed by Tomohiro Nishikado and released by Taito in Japan and Europe. Based around two Old West cowboys armed with revolvers and squaring off in a duel, it was the first video game to depict human-to-human combat. The Midway version was also the first video game to use a microprocessor instead of TTL. The game's concept was adapted from Sega's 1969 arcade electro-mechanical game Gun Fight.
