Similar to Defender, in Chopper Command, you're piloting a helicopter gunship, flying cover for a truck convoy of medical supplies through enemy territory. Suddenly, your long-range scanner shows squadrons of enemy aircraft closing in on your position. You throw the control stick forward and your chopper shoots skyward, barely avoiding a cluster of multi-warhead missiles. Your response is swift, as you pivot your gunship 180 degrees, unleashing a lightning barrage of laser rockets. The action: furious. The concentration: intense. You are engaged in one of the most demanding video battles ever conceived. You must rely on your long-range scanner, your wits, and your reflexes. Because it's your responsibility to see that those supplies get through. So, take charge - you're at the controls, with Chopper Command, by Activision!

Featured by Retro Gamer magazine in its "Games that Weren't" section, Combat 2 was cancelled during the Video Game Crash of 1983. In 2001, 200 prototype copies surfaced and were sold at the Classic Gaming Expo.

BOX DESCRIPTION:
The year is 2037. Mankind has finally tired of fighting massive wars with millions senselessly slaughtered. All this has been replaced by a new kind of warfare: the Combat Duels. Any time diplomacy between two nations fails, they resolve the conflict via the Duels, where two individuals battle head-to-head for their country's honor. These individuals are called Combatants, and they've trained hard and fought thousands of test duels to earn the right to be the champions for their nations. Combat Two will put you in the role of such a Combatant, a mighty hero of the virtual battlefield. Prove to your country that you are worthy of fighting in the Combat Duels and lead them to victory!

The expression "Lost in Space" takes on new meaning when it happens to you. You're suspended in time - caught in hostile space between the edges of the galaxy where only your best star cruiser navigational skills can bring you home. And as if that's not bad enough, you are under constant attack from all sorts of space vermin from alien monsters to rogue fighters. Keep your wits about you and your turbo lasers blasting and maybe you'll have a chance.

The immense WAYPOINT interstellar trade depot floats with its tiny crew at a distant crossroads between the stars. It should be a quiet place to command. But beware -- a dormant colony of giant, alien, mineral-eating termites hidden in ore holding section seven have awakened! The Termites invade the main power-conversion chamber and begin assembling a haphazard nest. Your crew is working feverishly, opening the crates of tiny remote-controlled planetary-probe ships. It's up to you to pilot a fragile probe ship into the power chamber and clear out the invaders before they jam it totally. By docking with your refueling ship when necessary, and by energizing the nest blocks so your probe ship's fire can destroy them, you may be able to prevail against the invaders and save WAYPOINT.
