 The Atari Times - 8-bit
Millipede is a marvelous arcade translation that must be upheld with "Joust" and "Robotron:2084" as the best released 8-bit arcade games of the pre-Tramiel Atari period.
Millipede is an excellent arcade translation that omits little of the frantic gaming action of the original game.
The Millipede moves at various speeds (depending on the level), and its progress is predicated on the placement of mushrooms on the game field.

Many of the games I had to stand in line at the arcade to play and then was slaughtered by in 60 seconds flat are contained on this 20+ game compilation of old arcade hits (and misses): Robotorn 2084, Rampage, Joust (1 and 2), Defender (1 and 2), Smash TV...just great stuff abounds.
The game menu for the disk is also very clunky and tough to navigate...but if you can overlook the shortcomings, you'll have hours of great retro-gaming fun at your fingertips (for less than you spent at the local bowling alley arcades when you were a squirt).
The games are basically the originals and are addictive and should prove to be a nice change of pace from today's games.

Midway Arcade Treasures is jam packed with over 20 classic arcade games including all-time favorites SpyHunter, Defender, Gauntlet, Joust and more for the first-time on next generation consoles.
Midway Arcade Treasures is sadly not a game for everyone, although Midway would have liked it to be.
Midway did not set out to update these games with flashy graphics, but rather give the player the in-arcade experience.
