The Atari 2600 definitely brings back the memories. This game is definitely a classic. Crafted by the Atari 2600 masters of programming Activision, this game is sort of like a reverse Space Invaders. You play as an attacking flying saucer. You goal is to attack earth, you do this by charging up your ion cannon, aiming, and fire at the earthlings Laser cannons before they shoot you down. In the event you get shot down, you can guide your disabled craft into the cannon that shot you down. A very fun game, and definitely addictive. A must have for the collector and the casual gamer alike.
The "SECOND BEST COMPANY" that made Atari games! "ACTIVISION!" With that being said, Laser Blast speaks volumes for itself with the name along. "IF YOU LIKE LASERS, YOU'LL HAVE A BLAST!" I stayed home one day with the flu and spent nearly 5 hours blasting away and I can't even remember how high the score got, but it was WAY UP THERE!!!! LOL
Laser Blast is an awesome game from back when Home Video Games were just starting out. Although this pales in comparison to today's games graphically it brings back great memories from a time gone by. You will thoroughly enjoy this game if you are into Atari VCS games. The idea is to blow up ground forces with your spaceships laser without getting shot down. If you do get shot though, you still have one last ditch chance to take out an instillation by driving your wounded spaceship into it. If you are wondering about this game, take it from me, you'll not be sorry you bought it.
First video game memory I have was playing this game. Almost 40(yeesh) years of gaming later, it still holds up. Think of it as a reverse Space Invaders/ missile Command. Good times
