SPACE INVADERS ANNIVERSARY
SPACE INVADERS ANNIVERSARY

It's a nice visual rendition of the classic space invaders game, but there are some problems running on my XP laptop:

- there is no way to configure the keyboard controls
- it does not retain high scores between runs
- it sometimes slows down after the laptop sleeps, and only a reboot will cure that
- no way to adjust sound level from within the game
- timing is different from original game: there is a delay from when a missile strikes to when you can fire again (unlike the original)

This is an addictive, very cool game. I got into space invaders on the Atari 2600 and have loved the game ever since, this new version is a whole new level for this classic shooter. There are so many improvements that it's a whole new game, it's Space Invaders for the 21st century.

Activision has done a great job rebuilding one of the best classics from the old video game days. In this game, go to every planet and fight off over 12 types of aliens and over 8 boss aliens. By beating the game(which is a bit too easy, unfortunately), you will unlock the classic version of the game.
Graphics-5/5: The graphics are great in this game. You can turn the 3D detail of the game up and down. I have to say that when you turn 3D detail to Low, it looks a bit like Paper Mario. It looks cool that way.
Control-5/5: Control is nice and easy, but they are very original controls. I've never seen another game using the Comma key as a control. Plus, if you don't like the controls, you can change them through the Control Configuration menu.
Challenge-2/5: I have to admit, this game ain't too hard. It takes about, say, 45 minutes at the most to complete, not counting the 2 hidden bonus level thingies(I'll explain those in the Replay Value section.)
Storyline-NOT COUNTED- You don't need a storyline for a classic game. I don't even remotely CARE about storyline in many games, except if it's an RPG.
Originality-NOT COUNTED- It's based on a classic game. Shooting aliens isn't that original, but who cares?
Replay Value-4/5: This game can be played many times without getting old. Also, 2 more planets can be unlocked (I have no idea how) that are really fun. Unfortunately, out of about the 25 or so times I've beaten the game, the 2 hidden planets have only appeared once.
Music-4/5: There's actually not all that much music. But, the music that is on Mars is really techno and cool.
FUN- 10/10: The most important thing in every game is, of course, the fun factor. This game is really fun, and the bosses, very original and fun to beat, make the fun factor even higher. I would give it an 11 out of 10 but I don't do that.
Overall-30/35: If you've counted out all of my points, you'll see Space Invaders scored a very high 30 out of a possible 35. If I do the math on my calculator, it's a .857. That's about a 4 and a half, which is a 5 in this case. I recommend this version of the classic game to anybody. I could keep blabbing about how good this game is, but I'll run out of room. G'bye!
