WARNING: This video is Rated R for......Revelations (GET IT?)

Here is one of the earliest games I remember playing as a kid, with a hand-me-down Atari 2600 when I was around 4 or 5 years old. For the longest time I thought it was called "Asteroid", similar to the far more well known arcade hit, but without the plural "S".

However, as it turns out, it's called Astroblast. And it's damned good, simple fun. But also hard as pissing nails on a cold February morning. So there's that. But still, raise a glass to the classics. Cheers!
