Phoenix

Released: 1980

Pitch: Destroy the waves of bird-like aliens.

Phoenix is interesting in that it is in the style of Space Invaders—which was also made by Taito, of course—but cribs the enemies breaking rank to come attack you up close like in Galaxian, made by Namco. But it's not as good as Galaxian. Meh. I grow weary of typing. Just watch the video lol.

I never knew there was a mothership when I played the game in the arcades. On the collection, I fought that thing a lot It's also kind of gross the way those birds explode when you get them right in the beak.

I remember this game being pretty popular when I was a kid.  It was in nearly every arcade for a while.  I kind of liked it.  Even the Atari 2600 version was pretty good.  I liked that you had a force field.

I see my laziness is getting through to you, causing you not to type as much. 

Good. Gooooooood. Let the laziness flow through you. Tongue Out
