I really wanted to like this game. The bottom line is, the controls are horrible. Paperboy is a nightmare to control. If you're not touching the analog stick at all, the paperboy veers slightly towards the right.. not moving in a straight line forward. Marble Madness is indeed just that..madness. Rampage is OK, and so is Gauntlet, and a couple others are probably ok (I didn't try them all out, I got frustrated). There's just something about playing classic arcade games with modern controls. It doesn't work out in the end.
This one is probably worth skipping. Rent it to see if you like it before you buy it.
