Galaxian (Atari 2600)

Galaxian was originally an arcade game by Namco released all the way back in 1979. It is perhaps not quite as well known as its sequel, Galaga, but was very popular nonetheless.

Galaxian is similar to and was designed to compete with Space Invaders. Personally, I never liked Space Invaders all that much but loved Galaga and though I never liked Galaxian quite as much, I still prefer it to Space Invaders. At any rate, this is definitely one of those classic arcade games that everyone should play.

The above ad for the Atari 2600 version of Galaxian released in April of 1983 and appeared in the April 1983 issue of Atari Age.
