Video Game Hunter - Astroids (Atari 2600)
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RPSFFOS94FGMJ I'm video game hunter. I hunt down video games and review them. This is my first video game. Reivew so please enjoy.

Very awesome game.
This is a very cool, highly addictive, classic Atari game. It is a fun today as it was when it was released. A must have for any Atari 2600 fan.

Asteroids is necessary if you want to be a true Atari collector
And even if your not a collector, Asteroids is a great game. When I got it for the Atari 2600 a few weeks ago, I fell in love with it. It had plenty of difficulties, and different power ups/game modes that will satisfy your Asteroid-destroying fix.

For those who say this game is easy, is correct... if you don't change the game mode. Game mode 1 is easy, but other game modes will test your skills, especially the ones with UFO's and Satellites. There's also modes that change your power up, Power ups include a "Shield" which makes you immune to incoming Asteroids for 2 seconds. Another is "Hyperspace" where you appear in another location randomly on the map, and my favorite, the mode with no power ups.

As for the graphics, its not vector based, but its close enough. Also, the Asteroids are colored for some reason, but I don't actually mind this, because they remind me of colored marshmallows, and I love me some Marshmallows.

Honestly, when I play asteroids, I always have some marshmallows to munch on.

As for Asteroids, its a great game... so get it.
