Pocket Express Presents Midway Arcade Classics Review

Manufacturer: Handmark, Inc.

ESRB Rating:
Platform(s): PDA
Release Date: December 31, 1969

Average Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

This is a package of five classic arcade games for your Palm OS device: Joust, Defender II, Spy Hunter, Sinistar, and Root Beer Tapper. All the games have been optimized to create as authentic an arcade experience as possible within the confines of your portable device. In Joust, just as in the original, you will take to the air on your winged bird of prey and defeat opponents with your javelin. Defender II lets you use your spaceship and antiballistic weapons to defend your planet from attacking aliens. In Spy Hunter you must defeat enemy agents while driving at top speeds in your specially equipped car. Sinistar sets you against the game's eponymous villain and his merciless hordes. Pour frosty mugs of the sickly sweet soda in Root Beer Tapper, and keep all your customers happy without breaking any mugs.

First Games I purchased 4 my palm
There are five games, each game is very cool. The first time i downloaded the demos of the pack, i was hooked. I recommend this game pack to any palm game enthusiast..one word of advice....the games look MUCH better in color..i had them in hi-res. 4 my sony...2 bad the sony didn't work after 2 days; but thats not because of the games...

Great gameplay
It's hard to believe that these old favorites can
look and play so well on a Palm! I was really
impressed with Spy Hunter. The product also has Joust,
Defender 2, Tapper, and Sinistar. All of the games are
great - Tapper is really addictive and fun to play
anytime (in case you haven't played it before). The
gameplay is definitely challenging, especially on
Defender 2, but you can set the level of difficulty to
make it easier. The product does a good job of using
the Palm buttons for gameplay in a way that works, but
you can reconfigure them easily too if you want to.
Big Thumbs up on this product!
