Wow. Glad I didnt pick that one up. To be honest I didnt even try the demo.

Shouldn't be surprised... they managed to screw up Missile Command.... now this... and Tempest is on the way? Man..... I can only imagine. Throttle Monkey Mode? Give me a break....

I kinda liked the demo so far... but we'll see when I actually buy it. Who knows when that'll be though :)

Throttle Monkey mode is an absolute joke.

Now commenting on the review:

 

On playing the demo mode, I didn't think the remix was that bad. I didn't think it was particularly good, but I didn't think it was the travesty everyone else seems to think it is.

 

That said, my problem with the demo was the exact same thing you note in your review. The explosions are visually interesting (something Asteroids needs a lot of help with), but are detrimental to play. That was really my only issue with the game.

 

I really didn't miss the sound effect, but I've never been a big Asteroids fan. I prefer Space Duel.
