Blockout Arcade game play

This is a compilation of me playing through various levels of Blockout via an arcade emulator.

This is meant as a tribute to what i feel is one of the best Tetris variants to exist, and also a measure of nostalgia as i have strong memories of playing this in the arcade at Penn State when i would visit my brother. The game came out in the arcade in 1989, and it's still just as fun to play now as it was back then.

I chose a selection of beginner, moderate, and hard stages for the video. Unlike some of the other gameplay videos that i've put on here, the play speed and music have not been modified.

@Skylinesandsunsets oh i misread your comment. thought you said you *had* the soundtrack to the game. :p

@darknotezero - There are websites that can convert youtube videos into MP3s.

@Skylinesandsunsets oh i could do it myself too if i wanted to from actual gameplay. i kind of want the "pure" tracks without gameplay sound effects getting in the way. i kind of doubt anything official exists for this game, which is too bad because the music is pretty awesome. :)

Oh wow, I know this game, but I never thought it would be available in USA. Well, this appears to be your first video in quite some time, and I finally evolved into 15 recently. And, what on Mobius was that at 1:57?
