I don't know what an Arkanoid is, but it sounds good. We've all played Breakout or some kind of ripoff/homage at some point and I remember a lot of the early flash games on the internet was Breakout or Arkanoid-esque. My dad loved this game and played it on both our NES and GameBoy a lot, and he was way better than us anyway, so we didn't mind watching him progress and ultimately lose his mind.

It gets hectic when you have to decide if you're gonna save the ball - or go for that power-up that's gonna help you. Sometimes you get completely joinked and crossed over by the game and you feel violated. It's great. I have always played Arkanoid and I probably always will.
