About this product

Product Information

Asteroids is the 1998 PlayStation update of the classic arcade hit. Coming almost twenty years after the original, the gameplay remains intact: pilot a small ship through an asteroid field, armed only with a laser cannon and a shield. Avoid the asteroids hurtling toward you, while blasting them into smaller and smaller pieces until they disappear entirely.<br><br>The PlayStation version, however, utilizes 3D graphics and adds several new options. There are now eight different types of asteroids and obstacles including the Classic Asteroid, Mined Asteroid, miscellaneous space debris, fiery comets, and the Indestructible Asteroid. Players can also use three different ships, including the well balanced Dagger, the low armored but maneuverable Rapier, and the slow turning, firepower intensive Longsword.<br><br>In addition to the UFO that tormented your ship in the original game, Asteroids features 11 other enemies that try their best to keep you from achieving the highest score. New enemies include flying saucers, crystallized ice ships, various turrets, repulsion units, and the suicidal Kamikaze units. You'll be supplied with a vast array of wildcard weapons including mines, homing missiles, plasma drills, trigger bombs, lasers, and the Missile Armageddon. <br><br>Asteroids features a simultaneous two-player mode where you and another player battle against each other in the asteroid field. The original 1979 classic is also included.

    Meh

    I'm a huge fan of the original Asreroids, and some of the remakes, but this version disappoints me. All the annoying intros take a little time to get through and when you finally get to play a game, your ship is real tiny while the asteroids are real huge, kinda awkward. Plus, the shooting action is rather slow and uneventful when you make a hit. For me, nothing beats the original vector graphics, which operate smoothly and offer attractive explosions.

  • a good game

    Genre: Action Players: 1 or 2 Dual Shock Compatible: Yes Difficulty: Easy to Moderate The year was 1979, people flocked to the arcades to drop quarters by the bucket loads to play a craze called Asteroids. A game pitting you in the middle of outer space to fight an endless supply of asteroids and unidentified flying objects. Sounds like a typical classic from the late 70's and early 80's, you against an endless supply of enemies. GAMEPLAY: The object of Asteroids is to blast everything to advance to the next round of asteroids to blast. In Activision's updated version, you have three ships to choose from, each with its own unique strengths and weaknesses, which also include speed and shield capacity. There are five areas with 15 levels each to blast, blast and blast everything in sight. ...

    When I was a young teenager I remember going to the arcade. I would play some pinball then move on to some other games. But my night would always end up on Asteroids for at least one hour. I fell in love with this game. I would get so involved in the game that I wouldn't even have noticed if a earthquake hit. Well as the years went by I had stop playing Asteroids but I always remembered the great time I had playing this game. Well recently my wife bought me a PS2 controller so I could have a little game time at home. I have purchased several games for the PS2. The games are fun but I lose interest quickly. Then I thought and wondered if my favorite game from my past was available for PS2. Well sure enough it was so I bid on it and won. And I have already received it and can't put ...

  • This ain't your Daddy's Asteroids kids.

    It's like old school got a makeover and then some.Great that you have different ships to choose from.And different versions makes it new and exciting.The graphics are quite impressive.Considering the 1979 game didn't have much.It reminds me more of Asteroids2 on steroids.But it still has that old feel for the original game.Pretty impressive,but I miss 1979 Asteroids or Asteroids2.I just never understood why it was so hard to make CDs of the original arcade games for Sony or Microsoft under licence of the original.Sega was able to do it.But anyway,cool game.Nice bit of nostalgia for guy who grew up in the 70's & 80"s.
