Microsoft Arcade/Return of the Arcade/Revenge of the Arcade...man, what great time wasters. Sure, they were just ports of classic arcade games, but they were (along with BOWEP) the best time killers ever. Who else wants to give it up for those classics? :beer:


(anyone who has the original disks, PM me ;))

SkiFree is available on the internet for free as it was independantly made before MS bought it from the guy who made it. I loved Asteroids and Battlefield and Tempest, too :) Missle Command too!!!

Hell, I loved every one of those little games MS released--whether it be from Entertainment Pack or the Arcade Classics.

Yeah, I actually have it in a directory on my 'Archives' partition on my desktop, because I feared losing the disks, although I haven't, yet.

I remember on my Gateway 2000, I had a sweet ass 3d-like tank game. The background was all black while everything else was outlined in green. That game was fun. :thumbsup: But I don't know if it was part of the Microsoft Arcade classics. It'd be great if I can find that game.
