Classic Arcade Game

[ShagzModo]

Can someone tell me what the name is of the classic scrolling arcade game that people played in the late 80? I had it installed on a Ubuntu box that i reinstalled but i completely forgot the name of the package...

There are so many classic scrolling arcade games from the 80's that you will have to give us more details to help you.

Off the top of my head "Mario Brothers" :)

No it's not mario brothers... It's the scrolling space shooter black background with swirming groups of enemy craft that you shoot. you have 3 lives with black background, you know the one?
