Video Games by Midway

Does Midway have some awesome game coming out in their lineup or something? Their stock is like 13 times sales.

They came out with a home arcade machine with like 20 classic arcade games built in that's selling like hotcakes. I think Target has it for $450.

The review I read called it a POS. Save your money. http://www.retroblast.com/reviews/biggames.html

Does anyone know if target is sold out of these? I would love to see inventory levels. This would be a great put option play.

Epic's using them for UT2007 but that's not being released until sometime late next year I think.

Gauntlet 7 Sorrows was released Tuesday on all consoles (not sure if PC). It is better than most the reviews say. Non stop action, very good graphics considering the amount of enemies (renderware was used). Fun online too but it is too easy like the reviews say. You are so busy looking for switches and generators, I don't feel it's as repetitive as the reviews say. I give it a 7.5 out of 10. Will have to play harder level when I'm finished. IGN gave it a 7 also.

Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator.

Its 450 dollars cheaper than the Midway arcade machine.

But it doesn't come in a cool full size arcade case, nor does it have two player control sticks with 6 function buttons each. You can get it for free, but you'd spend close to that on the accessories and wood to build it, plus I doubt it would look anywhere near as cool.

This company consistantly loses money, Sales/Price ratio is high because for some reason shareholders continue defend the stocks two billion dollar market value. (Probably based on takeover value/balance sheet fundenmentals (Current ratio of close to 6, cash reserves of 120 mil).

The model at Target is not full size. Plus the buttons on it suck. I was playing Rampage on it last week at a Target. I wouldn't waste my money on it.
