Midway Arcade Treasures

"Put 24 great games together on one disc, and you have 1 great game itself."

Midway Arcade Treasures is an extremely fun game. It has over 20 games, such as Paperboy, Joust, Rampage, Gauntlet, and many more that were very popular in the arcades.

Gameplay - 10/10

These games are so fun, either if you only have 10 minutes to play your game or if you want to spend hours trying to beat each one. The controls are simple enough so that you don't have to spend a lot of time figuring them out. Also, each game has it's own difficulty settings so that if it is too easy or hard, you can change the difficulty. On some games, you can add or subtract how many lives you have making the game easier/harder for you.

Graphics - 7/10

Considering that each of these games were made in the late 80s to early 90s, the graphics are very good. They are 2D and not very detailed, but they are good for their time and most of the games (with the exception of Blaster) you don't have to wonder what each thing is.

Sound - 8/10

Again, each of these games were made in the late 80s to early 90s, so the sound was good for its time, but not as good as games now. Some games have talking (such as Paperboy and Gauntlet) and some games have interesting sound effects. (such as Smash TV and Gauntlet)

Replay -10/10

The games were simple arcade games which were so fun they sucked the quarters from your pocket, and if you buy this, be glad you don't have to pay a quarter each time you play. I have played most of the games so many times again and again, and they never get old.

Overall - 9/10

Midway Arcade Treasures is a great game, and also a great price. You are basically paying $1 a game to play as much as you want. Thats way better than paying a quarter every time you play at the arcade. In conclusion, this game is a great game worth your money and you should buy it and try it out for yourself.
