Camp Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Well, I guess Hydro Thunder was kind of fun. -for $0.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy liquid Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 STUN Runner! SF Rush! SOLD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Midway had announced a port of Hydro Thunder & SF Rush 2049 from the DC to the Xbox about six months ago, I guess it's mutated into this instead. Can't say I'm desperate to buy it from the games listed - got the DC games already & the others don't really interest me. Each Midway treasure pack has had fewer stand out games with each pack I reckon, though a lot of that is down to the games I've played in the arcade in years gone by.

iainl Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 It's either get this (largely for STUN Runner), or just hunt down Rush 2049 on the DC; I'm not sure which. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelley Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 STUN Runner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Well, I ended up buying this despite my grumbles listed above. STUN Runner has a pretty mediocre frame rate. The high res, cleaned up graphics in Hydro Thunder make it look shockingly old. The Rush games have a real great framerate for the first time, though the 3DFX graphics look very old. Always fun playing Offroad etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 If you pre-order the new Gauntlet game (due in December if memory serves) Midway will give you a free copy of Midway Arcade Treasures 3 when you pay for Gauntlet. Not sure if all retailers are participating but I know Game Crazy is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Camp, it's the new LA Rush game that has that particular preorder deal, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Yea, my fault. I'm confusing my Midway games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Daddy Bling Bling Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Would have been an attractive deal if Midway hadn't bastardized the Rush series by trying to make it gangsta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
