Nope, 4-way controls are not fine. I don't have a dedicated 4-way stick, so the cabs are out, the 360 gamepad sucks for this, so I had to resort to using a keyboard. I can't count how many fonking times I have died because the bugger didn't go where I wanted him to. If I play these games too long, my neighbors know that I'm at it again, what with all the cursing and yelling.
This game doesn't suck as much as Wizard of Wor or Pac-Man, but I wouldn't play this if I didn't have to.
And yes, I'm going to beat you anyway
