What was that game's name?

Well... You are controlling a flat surface and there's a ball that bounces off that surface in order to break bricks in the wall above and then returns to be hit again by the flat surface and so on and there are multiple levels. It's something like wall breaker/wall buster, but I couldn't find it on google.

Arkanoid.

rson451 · 2009-04-28 20:08:57

Breakout

lycaeum · 2009-04-28 20:23:23

breakout is the modern version. But arkanoid is the classic one.

"Brickbreaker" is what they call it on a Blackberry.

In fact, ure right doing a research i found that arkanoid was the atari version. Breakout was an arcade version (those old fliperama machines).

Ah, love you guys! breakout is the name and the exact title I once played is lbreakout2, which I found in extra
*Is happy busting some bricks*

You didn't say which platform....could it be Dx-ball (2) ?
If not, you ought to try that one anyway

Tetris?

Snowman · 2009-04-29 01:37:24

There's also kbreakout which is part of kdegames.

orph · 2009-04-29 02:21:09

Haha, I installed lbreakout2 -- such a great game! (although the main menu is somewhat buggy)

What's that game with that yellow smiley guy who constantly eats xtc while being chased by ghosts. After a while, he eats some really big pill and is so stoned he eats up the ghosts!

pacman ? No wait, that's our package manager....Hmm, beats me!

Dheart · 2009-04-29 08:04:35

Try pacman -S xpacman or pacman -S xpacman2

alexandrite · 2009-04-29 12:42:24

Actually, if you want to see pacman, do pacman --version

Almost as addictive as that game where an Italian porn star jumps on turtles a lot, or that game where people beat the crap out of each other, or that other game where you have to drive really really fast

Here's a great ripoff of Arkanoid I rented a couple times back in the early 90s... Well, it's great if you're 8 years old and never played the original.
