QUOTE

Paperboy, a true Atari Games classic, has been ported to systems in the past with varying levels of accuracy and success. I've played some seriously crappy renditions back in the day on the PC and Apple, so in this sense the Game Boy Advance isn't all that terrible, even if it fails to follow the original formula's design properly. But it is far from being accurate, and in some cases it's a broken port. The bike slowly drifts to the right as if the control calibration is out of whack, which means players continuously have to readjust the direction to avoid running into hazardous objects. This version also has several bugs that cause players to die instantly after recovering from a previous crash, and for some reason fails to tell players their score after a game over.

And the most hysterical issue comes from the sound. The development team throws as much of the original arcade's speech into the GBA version, but these samples play back almost randomly. Throw a paper into the box for some bonus points, and you'll hear "That's not my fault!" or "Sorry about that!"

not dead yet Group: Members Posts: 18197 Member No.: 145 Joined: 19-November 03 Status: (0d)	Used to have Paperboy on Commodore 64. I was really really bad at it. When I got to the 2nd stage where there are ramps all over the place, I had no idea what to do and died all the time. That only happened about 6 times ever. --------------------

Paperboy sucks, and I've never heard of rampage, unless it's rampage world tour which rocked my socks.

Whadja come out here for? Group: Members Posts: 2391 Member No.: 32 Joined: 13-October 03 Status: (0d)	They should bring back Larry the Rat from the Atari Lynx version of Rampage. There are a few other games in the series: Rampage 2: Universal Tour starts off with George, Lizzie, and Ralph in captivity, and three new monsters are introduced: a rhinoceros, a rat, and a lobster. You go on to free the original monster trio. Eventually an alien invasion begins, and the game progresses to take you to Area 51, where you free a giant mutant alien cyclops, thus adding up to seven playable monsters. I have not yet played Rampage Through Time or Rampage Puzzle Attack. I-Mockery has an article that covers sexual moments in video games, and they cover Rampage in particual. Should I post the link to the coverage on Rampage? Because they have pixelated nudity. That's why I'm asking.
