Posts: 49 | Can't help thinking that it is going to suck like the majority of 'retro' games. They are great at the time, but when played again, they suck. Don't bother giving me the 'it's the simplicity that makes them great' because that is bollocks.
Turtles was great in the arcade, crap on 360. Paperboy on the Spectrum was cool. Absolute garbage on the 360. Gauntlet blah blah blah etc etc etc  |

Pacman, space invaders and the usual retro games that were good 20-25 years are let's face it, ****e. They are boring, basic and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz wow i went to sleep. Would you honestly swap Oblivion, Gears R6V etc etc etc for those crap games? |

Gauntlet blah blah blah etc etc etc  | Double Dragon is a waste of points, mostly for the reasons you outline here. It was fun to play one time, just for nostalgia, but it has ZERO replay value on the 360. 400 points for 20 minutes of play!
