  "Accurate, and with sound."

  by arrrrrgh on January 5, 2007

  Pros: This is about as close to the original arcade game as is possible.

  It does have sound - for XP users, search the internet for VDMSound and download and install it. To play the game, right click on the game exe and select Run with VDMS.

  To start a game, press Enter at the GAME OVER message.

  Cons: Will make you late for work.

  "All it did was show a screen that said game over."

  by imwilowalso on May 19, 2008

  Cons: It didn't do anything but show that screen. What's up with that? Can you spell DUD?

  "VERY COOL"

  on March 8, 2003

  Summary: For those dumb people who think this is a hoax, you are supposed to press ENTER when you see "Game over" and then play the game using the left ctrl to go left, the right alt to go right, and the right shift to shift. Very fun to play.

  "It's IT with no sound-effects"

  on October 16, 2003

  Summary: Yep, it's the classic Green Invaders but without sound. It's kinda cheesy but free and good enough.
