My friend had an "Advanced #asteroids clone" sometime in the late 80s for PC. It was very fun, because the graphics were great for it's time but moreso because it was very customizable. Not only did you have about 10 ships with clearly different characteristics to pick from but you could add or remove a gravity center in the middle of the map, set how dense the asteroid field should be and even play against a friend and instead of shooting asteroids try to kill each other in a 1v1.
