Robotron was okay though not having the right controls sucked ( Shane unleashes army of evil robots on shockwave.com )
I hated playing Sinistar this way and the screen was way too small and of course Sinistars voice wasn't up to snuff.
The control on Joust sucked ( hitting the space bar to flap sucks )
The only game that was half decent to play was Defender.
Looks like this was developed by our retro devs at Digital Eclipse who have dropped the ball from time to time. ( I do like some of their work )

Thats right. Robotron uses two joysticks (one for moving and one for firing) and I know that you could change the keyboard layout but that isn't going to help me like it any better since I don't care for playing it with a keyboard.
You say LOL quite a bit don't you ?

yeah... I laugh quite a lot which is strange considering I used to suffer from depression...
But anyways yeah I understand you're point but it's still cool if you can coupe with not having double joystick controls.
I would be "bigging up" the Xbox live! score baords but Midway are gonna close them down pretty soon (acording to the manual) which is a shame because I like to pit myself agsint "the pro's" and see how I compare.

Some of the Guff some people say in the reviews section of robotron is funny, i got 3million on my first go, im 13 i played played this when it first came out, the N64 version is better etc. Dumbasses
My God, how spoiled my generation is. I would have loved to have played this game in the arcades as a kid. Bad graphics? It's meant to emulate the original. Bad plot? You want a plot, go play Final Fantasy. This is ROBOTRON! :D

I remember playing Rampage on there years ago. If I hadn't discovered MAME before that, I would've died.

Nice way to kill the dead time at work.
The Defender high score will be mine!
