Classic Game Room HD is a new member of the Classic Game Room family. A more relaxed, subdued show reviewing classic video games from the past 30 years.

For what reason do you have to destroy the harmless asteroids floating in space? This question is not answered in the classic Asteroids video game for the Atari 2600. All you need to know is shoot, dodge and teleport out of the way.

Asteroids has been released on Xbox 360 Live Arcade (XBLA) now because it remains popular several decades after it's original release in the 1980's. Maybe it'll be on PS3 soon.

Be sure to watch the original Classic Game Room episodes. Classic Game Room was the original classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999-2000, now on DVD.
