Arkanoid is Breakout without the boredom. Well, without as much. [May 2009, p.83]

Arkanoid Live is good for some occasional casual fun -- as it's always been and always will be -- but with an iffy aesthetic and not much more variety outside of a standard two-player versus mode, it's probably not something you'll want to boot up often.

Arkanoid's a fun game that can best be described as looking a little "frumpy" on XBLA.

Of the two Taito releases this is the weaker with little new on offer to tempt fans of the classic and new gamers to the world of Arkanoid.
