Alex Martin: Every other Wednesday I share a playlist of songs tangentially related to a single game or series. Songs about alien sex for Mass Effect, songs about world leaders for Civilization, and so on. Searching for random terms on Spotify is a great way to discover new music and rediscover old classics.
Space Invaders is a cave painting next to rich tapestries like Heavy Rain and Mass Effect. But that doesn't mean there aren't themes and allegories to explore. Or invent. Now tremble, puny human, before this superior playlist!
70 years and still going strong. And with some amazing games, too.
There are countless ones that weren't mentioned. Rastan. New Zealand Story. Cadash. NINJA KIDS.
I prefer the original Rastan...or, for that matter, the very rare Warrior Blade.
Taito Pinball Tables Volume 1 includes a four-pack of pinball tables that draw inspiration from the iconic Taito arcade classics Darius, Front Line, Rastan, and Space Invaders.
Space Invaders is getting an AR makeover for mobile devices.
