"Classic Game Room HD reviews HYPERBALLOID HD for Playstation 3 PS3. This Breakout / Arkanoid clone packs numerous levels into two different environment (an "Aztec" style world or space). Predictable and satisfying brick breaking style gameplay with some clever design make Hyperballoid HD a game worth looking at for fans of the genre looking for an affordable download from Playstation Network."-Classic Game Room
Exciting news for Hyperballoid HD fans: the Original World Campaign downloadable content (DLC) will be included in today's European PlayStation Network update. The Original World Campaign DLC gives players access to fifty new levels for Hyperballoid HD, the addictive brick-breaker that launched in Europe last December.
The ArmChair Empire: Such a simple concept for a game: bounce a sphere off a paddle into “bricks” with the goal being to entirely clear the level of each and every last one. First with Breakout and even more so with Arakanoid, it became known as the brick-breaker game, relatively popular in the early, early days of gaming in the 1970s and 1980s.
Gamer 2.0 writes: "With a number of games with twists to the brick-breaking formula having appeared on PSN in the past year, it’s surprising to see that nothing more traditional has been released on PSN in the last three years. Hyperballoid HD is the new PS3 iteration of a PC line of Arkanoid clones from Alawar Entertainment, which offers about 100 new levels for just $4.99. While the game is cheap, it does come with some unfortunate issues that keep it from being a perfect purchase for a cheap price."
