About this product

Product Information

First Contact occurred November 22nd, 1978. It was then that the original Space Invaders hit the Arcades in full force, wrenching millions of quarters from gamers' pockets. Wave after wave of alien invaders descended from the heavens in precise rows, pouring missiles upon an all but helpless Earth. If it weren't for the experimental Tanks (originally called Laser Bases), which had been created by our xenophobic government years before, humanity would have fallen prey to these ominous galactic beings. Guided by the hands of skilled gamers across the nation, these tanks were instrumental in shooting the aliens out of the skies. Countless tank pilots lost their lives, but in the end, we won the battle and Earth returned to a state of (relative) normalcy.<br><br>Flash forward 21 years and the aliens have returned. Just like those in the original Space Invaders, these aliens begin at the top of the playfield, march in rows from side to side and descend to the bottom of the screen. Beginning with Pluto, this new alien invasion is headed for Earth. Luckily, using the wreckage from the destroyed aliens from the original invasion, the government has been at work the last couple of decades on a new kind of tank. The new Tank was born complete with hover capability, multi-adaptive hard-points and an electromagnetic shielding system powered by a nuclear core.<br><br>Your job in this updated-for-the-'90s version of Space Invaders is to maneuver the newly designed Tank horizontally along the bottom of the playfield and blast enemies out of the sky. Each time you destroy a wave of invaders, a new wave appears. Between stages (planets) you must face a giant boss. There are 13 enemy species and more than 100 levels, including hidden worlds and the original Space Invaders game. Scoring 50,000 will net you an extra tank. You can also earn extra tanks in the bonus stage.<br><br>Unlike the original Space Invaders, which consisted of standard slide-and-shoot action (using a single type of missile), this game is loaded with power-ups. You can retrieve shields, double shots, timestops and energy boosts from the mother ship. Destroyed aliens provide vertical blasts, horizontal bursts, diagonal bursts, swarm missiles, fat lasers, boomerang bombs, acidic clouds and other powerful weaponry. The original game had bunkers for defense in every wave while this version offers blockades that appear in some levels. You can shoot the blockades upwards, into the aliens' path.<br><br>Space Invaders offers a two-player simultaneous mode in which players cooperate against the aliens, but there is no two-player alternating mode like in the original.

  • well let me tell you first hand that this game is great

    WELL FIRST OF ALL THIS GAME IS A HARD TO FIND CLASSIC. YOU JUST CAN'T GO DOWN TO YOUR LOCAL GAME STORE AND PICK THIS BABY UP. I HAVE SEARCHED FOR QUITE A LONG TIME TO FIND THIS GAME AND I FINALLY FOUND ONE THANKS TO EBAY.THIS GAME IS A VERY RARE TITLE. CONSIDER YOURSELF VERY LUCKY AND PRIVALEGED TO OWN SUCH A RARE CLASSIC. I LOVE THE VISUAL GRAPHICS AND I LOVE THE GAME PLAY EXPERIANCE THE DIAGNOL EXPLODING ROCKETS IS A GOOD TOUCH THERE REALLY ISN'T MUCH TO DISLIKE ABOUT THIS TITLE OTHER THAN IT IS HARD TO FIND. I PURSHASED THIS GAME BECAUSE OF THE RARITY AND BECAUSE I WANTED TO TAKE THE SPACE INVADERS EXPERIANCE ONE STEP FURTHER. IF YOU DONT HAVE A COPY OF THIS GAME DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND TRY TO FIND ONE YOU WONT REGRET IT.

  • A Classic, Timeless Video Game for All

    Still the fun arcade game it used to be. Takes you back in time. Easy to play, challenging, The "Little Black Dress" of video games. Gotta have one in your collection. Bought this so I could practice and 'beat' my little brother since I never did in the 70s. Only drawback is that when I get out, I have to wait for the game to go back to the menu to play again. Great for kids of all ages.

  • Space invaders

    This is a great game. Its old, but it will bring alot of fun to who ever plays it. I am 48 years old, it brings back memories for when I played this game in the arcades years ago. This is the third one that I owned, wore one out, one was stolen, believe it or not. My kids love this game, and they are better at it then I was ever. I say every one should try this out, you won`t be dissappointed, believe me. Nothing bad about this game. Thank you...George.

  • Gotta love the classics

    Great game! Came complete and quick Disc is nearly mint Game played on my Ps3
