    Default Midway Arcade Treasures 2 - Favorite/Most Anticipated Game?

    I just picked up Midway Arcade Treasures 2 today, and the game listing is great! But, what's going to be the "seller" game on this compilation? I love MK2, It's not the ONLY reason I bought it, but it will be the first one I play and it's always going to be my favorite. Though I expect that to be true with most people anyways. What's yours?

    Hard Drivin'. I always loved running over the cow that stood next to the barn.

    I'm an MKII fan as well, so that's just more of an incentive to get it.

    People have compared Timber to Root Beer Tapper, so I'll be playing that title first.

    Hard Driven is the seller for me. If they get it at least 90% right I will be a happy camper.

    I haven't picked it up yet due to excessive brokness but next week I will get it with Homonoid.

    I am really looking foward to the Mortal Kombats, definatly ,my pick. I want APB though just to see if they did a good job with it. Being that I own the arcade and all. *bragging* :P
    Somebody make me a "CGE 2k7 Attendee banner" so I don't have to use this lame text

    Timber's nothing like Root Beer Tapper, it's just that the same design team made both games.

    But both games ROCK.

    I'd prolly log in the most time on N.A.R.C. As much as I love Wacko, it's just not the same without the proper controls (joystick / trakball combo). And that awesome, stilted cabinet.

    Wacko = most underrated sleeper hit on the disc.
    Selling collection, Atari through XBox. Send a PM with whatever games you're looking for.

    Just got it and I must say it is quite awesome. Played a little bit of Xenophobe, Timber and N.A.R.C. during lunch and all play, look and sound great. Timber is a little odd if you use the right stick (Xbox) to swing the axe but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

    What sold the game for me? The above three games primarily.

    APB for me. Great spoof of police games. Looking forward to throttling my first crook!

    Primal Rage, I used to play that game to death in the Arcades, but was crushed when the ugly ass ports arrived on SNES and Genesis to discover that SNES verison was censored

    I hope this collection revives everything I knew about the game
    These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

    Well, the "seller" on the game has to be the Mortal Kombats!
    BUT, my most looked forward title went to Spy Hunter 2. Then the MK's.

    The Eugene Jarvis fan that I am has only one answer to the above question: Narc!

    (of course, I will also check out MK II, Spy Hunter 2 and a few others... I haven't played MKII in ages, even though I do have the SNES version of the game)

    Primal Rage and Mortal Kombat 2 & 3 are the selling points for me.

    I think the MK fans will push the sales of this game pretty high.

    I'm stoked for Xenophobe. It's a strange game, and I'm all about the quirky ones! APB will be great, as well; I haven't played that since I had a Lynx years ago! NARC will be a good replacement for my NES cart, too.

    Huge difference between the arcade and NES versions... though the NES version is fairly viloent.

    NARC's the big reason I'll hopefully be picking this up tonight if EB Games got it in today. Also Pit-Fighter and the MK games.

    I just picked it up an hour ago.

    Mk2 is the reason I got it. The guys at EB let me play it before I bought it. MK2 is Arcade perfect IMO. Mk3 looks just like the PS1 version. Also when you morph with Shang Tsung in MK2, theres no loading times. Sweet.

    Ok went through most of the games...and I think they are lame as hell. Doesnt matter, I would pay 20 bucks for just MK2.

    I suppose it would be hypocritical for me NOT to choose Wizard of Wor Really though, it's hard choosing one out of the group... getting so many excellent games for a good price is it's own best feature really.

    And even though I never heard of the game until this, Timber is actually VERY fun. If you don't end up buying the collection, at least go play it in MAME or something.
