Itellivision Live and Midways Arcade treasures

[Retsudo]

Who's picking these up tomorrow? Im hiting EB tomorrow to most likely to get Midway Arcade Treasures first.

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

I thought Midway Arcade Treasures was delayed until next year?

[SoulBlazer]

Only the GC version was, if I recall.

That's STILL the version I'm going to get.

My GC needs all the loving that it can get.

I'll be buying these... Possibly for myself, &/or maybe as Xmas gifts for other people... I think collections like these are good for more 'casual' retrogamers who don't want to deal with emus & roms.

I'm getting the PS2 version of Midway Arcade Treasures almost for sure (I'll have to see if it arrived at work or not), after seeing some reviews (this being Midway, I wanna make sure they didn't screw it up this time).

As for Intellivision Lives, I don't know. I already have Intellivision Lives! and Rocks! for the computer and I'm getting an Intelli 2 this weekend. It'll depend on whether my employer will carry it or not.

[kainemaxwell]

Likely getting Midway Treasures soon as I can. Not sure about the Intellivision one yet.

[AB Positive]

Delayed for GCN? Someone better tell us at Gamestop, since our computer still seems to think it's wednesday...

I think that it is funny that I own almost 3,000 games and I am drooling at owning both of these. Robotron using the Dual Shock is gonna rock! I too, just got an Intellivision II. I just hope that the Intv one isnt a pile of poop like the PS one version released years ago.

Here's a link to the IGN review:

http://xbox.ign.com/articles/440/440841p1.html

It says that the PS2 version is better than the Xbox version in some respects, although the XB version looks better and has Live support for score rankings.

I want to get it this week, but I have too many games here that are still unplayed.

Sounds like good classic gaming for all, but why is their no GameCube version of Intelivision Lives.

[Jasoco]

Actually, I pre-ordered the Xbox bersion of Midway. Is it REALLY coming out this soon?

I'll probably get a call on Wednesday. Damn. I was hoping to go to GS tomorrow, but it's far away that I don't wanna have to go BACK! Man!

I wish there had been a cool Freebie with it though. In leiu of a cool Freebie for Midway, the guy offered me a Spy Hunter 2 motorcycle. I took it. Still in packaging on my shelf. Wish I had gotten a Halo 2 Freebie when I pre-ordered that... LAST YEAR.

I'm not trying to knock you or anything here, but what was the motivation to preorder that early? Always wait to see if there's going to be a promo or something first!

[YoshiM]

It looks as though the PS2 version is out now, the Xbox version is (according to a bunch of sites) is coming out early next month and I don't plan on getting the Cube version so I don't know

[Retsudo]

OOps, the PS2 version was pushed back till the 19th. Guess I can wait a day till I get my Stargate on

[Captain Wrong]

What's the release date for INTV lives? I can't find one anywhere other than 11/03.

I seem to have a hair trigger. If the employee says the RIGHT word, I cave. Otherwise I say no. I guess it was because I had just bought Halo and was wanting more. And at the time, it was actually coming out THAT YEAR.

Why?!?

what about tron don't forget that game.

[Neil Koch]

I thnk Tron would be hard to emulate give the control scheme, also Disney probably wouldn't license it out.

Is MAT out in stores now for PS2? Amazon still says the 20th.
