Asteroids crash onto Xbox Live Arcade

This article is over 16 years old and may contain outdated information

The only game coming to Xbox Live Arcade this week is a remake of Asteroids. Asteroids Deluxe updates the visuals with HD graphics and adds a high speed throttle monkey mode as a new challenge. If you’re a purist you can play the original game with vector graphics too. Like the other Atari remakes, Asteroids and Asteroids Deluxe will set you back 400 Microsoft Points ($5) when it comes out on Wednesday.
