==Popular culture== Critical to the plot of the 1984 film ''[[Cloak & Dagger (1984 film)|Cloak & Dagger]]'' is an Atari 5200 game cartridge called ''[[Cloak & Dagger (video game)|Cloak & Dagger]]''. The arcade version appears in the movie. In actuality the Atari 5200 version was started but never completed. The game was under development with the title ''Agent X'' when the movie producers and Atari learned of each other's projects and decided to cooperate. This collaboration was part of a larger phenomenon, of films featuring video games as critical plot elements (as with ''[[Tron]]'' and ''[[The Last Starfighter]]'') and of video game tie-ins to the same films (as with the ''[[Tron (video game)|Tron]]'' games for the [[Intellivision]] and other platforms).<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.usgamer.net/articles/cloakdagger-the-video-game-movie-that-wasnt-about-video-games | title=Cloak & Dagger, the Video Game Movie That Wasn't About Video Games | first=Jeremy | last=Parish | date=August 10, 2015 | website=[[USGamer]] | access-date=November 21, 2021 | archive-date=November 22, 2021 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211122055943/https://www.usgamer.net/articles/cloakdagger-the-video-game-movie-that-wasnt-about-video-games | url-status=dead }}</ref>
