Microsoft Revenge of Arcade

Summary: These Games Used To Swallow My Quarters
Review: Microsoft did a pretty good job on providing us with the 5 Namco arcade classics for the computer. Each game is exactly like the original, but you can use the keyboard or joystick for all the games. Also you can change the settings to make the game a little bit easier or harder. The problem is these games wont run in 16 bit color or higher, but all you have to do is just change it to 256 colors.

Summary: These Games Used To Swallow My Quarters
Review: Okay, this is a guilty pleasure for me as, these these simple little games helped me get through those horrible college years. Ms Pac Man and Xevious were two of my all time favorites. Although these are simple compared to the complex fare that we have in arcades today, these games were a lot of fun and its good that the people at Microsoft remember the 70s (however, all bets are off if they come out with a disco program).

Summary: This Game Is Great!
Review: The main reason I bought the game was for Ms. Pac-Man. The game has Ms. Pac-Man, and many other addictive arcade games from Namco. All of the games are lots of fun, the graphics and sounds are just the same as the arcade versions, and you can use the joystick for all the games to make them feel even more like their arcade counterparts. If you liked Ms. Pac-Man, Rally-X, Mappy, Motos, or Xevious in the arcade, or even if you never played any of the games, this game is worth buying. It is an excellent game that should be in every computer gamer's library.

Summary: No frills...disappointment
Review: This game appears to have been sped out the door...there is no way to pause a game. This is a great feature in the original Microsoft Arcade which includes Centipede. Why leave it out? On my 17" monitor, I could not get Ms. Pac-Man to play at a respectable window size...even full screen is too small. There is a way to double the standard window, but a screen message tells you to switch to 256 colors to play at a normal speed. I uninstalled Revenge after one day and went back to playing my mame version.

Review: This game is truly a original arcade game from when I was growing up and playing in the arcade at Mall. I just wish I had cheat codes to make Ms. Pac man go faster, cause she is slow and always getting caught by the ghost. Should there be any cheat codes to try please respond back to me on how to do this. I really have fun playing it but only wish I had a cheat code to master it. Enjoy the game.
