Game Description:
From the original skating game to the only river toob runner to the game show with guns, the MIDWAY ARCADE PARTY PACK is a compilation of some of the greatest arcade games ever to suck pizza parlor tokens from your pocket. A few of the games are even good enough to stand on their own. You get six Midway classics from the late '80s and early '90s, so for retro gamers wanting some than just old 8-bit clunkers, this PACK is jam-packed with goodness.
First off is TOOBIN', a river runner game where players float lazily down a rapid-filled river on an inner tube. Then there's the addictive puzzler KLAX that will have you sweating those rolling cubes in your nightmares. Racing fans will remember the super-fast and challenging SUPER SPRINT, while skaters need, need, need to get their hands on the only successful translation of the immortal boarder's delight, 720 -- only the DUALSHOCK controller is able to truly duplicate the control of the arcade game. RAMPAGE makes its presence felt with Earth-rumbling action and window-bashing carnage.
But maybe the real clincher of the group is a direct translation of SMASH TV, the super-sweet, visceral, carnal shooter that could easily stand out as its own game. Using the DUALSHOCK controller really gives you that double-fisted gunning action of the arcade, and the graphics and sounds all light up and explode from its ahead-of-its-time original. Good luck -- you'll need it!
Arcade Party Pak was Digital Eclipse and Midway's fifth entry into the PlayStation retrogaming craze, this time focusing on the late 80's and early 90's with these six blockbusters:
720°
KLAX
Super Sprint
Smash TV
Rampage
Toobin'
Features:
- Extensive video interviews with the original game designers
- Access to all the operator settings (bonus levels, lives, difficulty settings, etc.)
- Meticulously ported from the original arcade game code for the best pixel-perfect accuracy possible; Rampage brought to the PlayStation via Digital Eclipse's Digital Arcade(tm) Emulation Technology for a 100% pixel-perfect recreation
- Save your all-time high scores to your memory card
- Support for many PlayStation controllers including Dual Analog Controller, Dual Analog Flightstick, mouse/track-ball, steering wheels and Namco's neGcon and paddle ("volume") controllers in select games.
IMPORTANT NOTE to PlayStation 2 owners: due to difficulties the PS2 experiences with running some high resolution PSOne games, Super Sprint, Toobin', and 720° will not appear correctly on the PS2. At this time, there is no known fix for this problem.
