Atari Arcade

Summary: Blast From the Past!
Review: If you loved these original arcade games you'll love this CD! I wasn't sure after buying it if it would be as authentic as the arcade experience I remembered as a pre-teen but it was! Complete with the original sound effects, images, and "insert coin for 1 or 2 players" on the monitor as in the original games. It works with either a controll pad or mouse (or keyboard) but I think the mouse gives superior performance over the controll pad in maneuvering around in games like "Tempest" and "Missle Command". I had no problems installing or playing it on my 500 MHz 56 K modem (Win 98). The graphics are to be expected considering their original look. Another great thing is that there in no 100 page instruction booklet before you can play. You just jump right in and start bringing back those memories!
