LAZEROIDS — a never-ending, massively multiplayer, peer-to-peer version of Asteroids — was the Innovation category winner in August's Rails Rumble.
An MMO of any early 1980s arcade game would get me excited, but Asteroids…erm. I have to admit that I'm very conflicted about Asteroids. I was terrible at it, and loathed and envied the smug kid at my arcade who boasted that he could play the game "as long as I want, on one quarter." Someone needed to wipe the smirk off that punk's face, but it wasn't going to be me.
