''Like Space Invaders Extreme before it, Arkanoid DS takes an arcade classic and wraps it around a new interface, while keeping most of the fun that made the original such a favorite.
In Arkanoid, you control the Vaus, a futuristic spaceship shaped like a metallic paddle. You're thrust into a series of stages where several block formations stand in your way. Sadly, your ship doesn't come equipped with the weaponry to remove these obstacles from your path. Instead, you remove them by knocking a large ball into them. As you chip away at these bothersome blocks, you'll find a couple of attributes working in your favor.''

2009 wasn't just the year of big name releases; there was also a very obvious attempt to revive some of gaming's longest running franchises. While that's not necessarily a new idea, it seemed like in this past year developers actually attempted to keep the feeling of the original games instead of just taking the name of a franchise and slapping it on something completely new. Take a look at some of the classics that received some nostalgic love this year, and reminisce about the good old days as you cross your fingers that 2010 holds the same retro...
411mania talks about this week's game releases. Highlights include Little King's Story, Katamari Damacy Tribute, Shatter, and Wii Sports Resort.
Poorly-reviewed update Arkanoid DS contains a hidden, far better Arkanoid game not mentioned in any reviews. UK gaming website WoS exclusively reveals and unlocks it.
doing my best Jonny.
btw - stop fcking about and do some new content on Snappy Gamer, man.
also - this site is terrifying. PEOWW gave Killzone 2 a seven and I had to bat away retards for days.
Holy crap I haven't heard the name Arkanoid since the 80s. Classic 80s gameplay, I encourage everyone who loves classic gaming to get this.
Arkanoids is legendary, I'm glad SE continue to make the classic Taito titles like this and Space Invaders. Simple and fun works a charm.
