kelley Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 They had my money at NARC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Dear lord, Midway has all the Bally titles right? This could very well mean that my dream of seeing an arcade-perfect home conversion of Xenophobe will soon be answered. That is literally the holy grail of my entire gaming life on this planet. Hopefully Trog will get thrown in there too! Quick, what else can they stuff on there? And hopefully Midway will release this for the Cube, because their GC support has been pretty iffy of late. No worries though, I can pick it up for the Box I plan to get . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DataScion Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 The original MK and NARC. Where do I go to hand over my cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretvampire Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 I am all over this. The first Midway Arcade Treasures was a great package with a great $20 price tag. If they keep pumping them out at this price point, I will keep buying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnemaEms Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 I am all over this release. The amount of time I wasted on MK 1 and II is too much to add up. Plus, the addition of NARC is just icing on the cake. -Dean- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainl Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Mortal Kombat kind of passed me by, and I never got my head around the appeal of NARC either. But Total Carnage gets my vote, so that means I'll probably get it anyway. Mind you, I've yet to get the far more appealing first one yet. Did the XBox Live high scores happen on it in the end?

Did the XBox Live high scores happen on it in the end? Yes, and last time I looked, Ed had a really high score on Robotron. I spent an hour or so trying to beat him, but gave up. Way to go, FreakTornado! I'll get this one because I love retro gaming, but hate having to use my PC for it. Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainl Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Cool. Time to go shopping, methinks! Arrgh. Just remembered; I'm supposed to complete something first. So its either the last three of Extreme along with all of Ultimate on PGR2 at silver, or area 6 onwards of Simpsons Hit 'n' Run. And Quick.

Beer Monkey Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Hey Midway, How about some STUN Runner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 If you get STUN Runner and I don't get Xenophobe, I plan to raise holy hell. Not that anybody listens to me, but I'll raise it just the same :green: I need to pick up Vol.1 too so I can get that damn Gauntlet fix.

iainl Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Oooh, yes please! While you're at it, add Xybots, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Ah yeah, that would rock. I keep getting Xybots confused with Vindicators for some reason, so I thought they released it on the first compilation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Monkey Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Xenophobe, Xybots, Vindicators would all be good choices. Almost as good as STUN Runner You know, all of these games had good versions on the Lynx handheld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Well, Vindicators was already on the first compilation, so it's out there . You know what obscure game I'd LOVE to see but don't expect to just because I believe it's an Atari title? Escape From The Planet of the Robot Monsters. That game was just a silly, ridiculous blast to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainl Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 It was great fun, but only really in two-player. In one-player it gets pretty tired after a while. I did complete it in the arcade, though; for all the credits it took us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Monkey Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Yeah, I actually had a decent version of EPROM for the Atari ST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelley Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 I'd buy a disc that JUST had Stun Runner on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
