How freakin’ awesome is this!? If you’re into retro games, especially when they pop up for download and play on your handset of choice… keep reading. The arcade classic ‘Zaxxon’ is now available for BlackBerry users in App World. Just looking at the screenshots take me back to my youth, huddled around that 20″ tube TV, Commodore 64 a blazin’, and joystick in-hand. Good times. The official description via the developers at EA:

Take the helm of an armored spacecraft and maneuver through an infested alien asteroid belt. Journey into deep space on your way to defeat the evil robot Zaxxon! Fly your spaceship through a barrage of shoot-outs with enemy aircraft and dive in and out of ground fire. Play through 3 distinct stages presented with 3D-like perspective. Feel the power as you attack and evade in this pioneering game of high-score survival!

For all the details, or to pick up Zaxxon for $6.99, hit up App World.
