This week's game release for Xbox Live Arcade are remastered versions of
Asteroids and
Asteroids Deluxe for 400 points. I've played it and it's actually pretty fun with the new graphics. Asteroids was a game that fellow writer Dave Gamble set the high score on on my old work place until I took over the top spot. He promised anyone who beat it a case of beer but he has yet to deliver in 9 years.
Get ready for classic space shooting action with the release of “Asteroids” and “Asteroids Deluxe” which will be available jointly for download on Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 this Wednesday, November 28 at 9:00 a.m. GMT (2:00 a.m. PST).
Save the earth from a deadly deluge of asteroids and re-experience the beloved arcade classics “Asteroids” and “Asteroids Deluxe” on Xbox LIVE Arcade. Players control a spaceship in an asteroid field and shoot to destroy asteroids and saucers, all while trying to avoid a costly collision. Complete with re-mastered HD visuals and the whiplash inducing high-speed “throttle monkey” mode, players will be hooked for hours! “Asteroids” and “Asteroids Deluxe” will be available worldwide as a joint download for 400 Microsoft Points and are rated E for Everyone by the ESRB.
