Thanks for the link rlemmeon. I ordered one, I'll let y'all know what I think of it. stan2323: The joystick is not very "true" especially down and left. I have played 2 of that model and both of the joysticks were too frustrating while playing Ms Pacman. Galaga and Pole Position are not so bad but I'd still rather player Galaga and Ms Pacman with a keyboard than that thing. |

The Mr. Pacman version is working much better on the labyrinth. Found this today: Anybody played this one? |

The new version also has the pole position twist function. I wonder if it is 4-way or 8-way. When I messed with it in the store it seemed like a 4 way, but then why would xevious be included? It's bad enough that Bosconian plays weird (no diagonals) but that's pushing it! |

It's optical. --- Quote from: Blanka on January 29, 2009, 04:43:07 am ---Pac Man and others had a 4:3 landscape layout for table-tops. Those versions are used. The sticks are 4-way, but for Bosconian, it means weird play, as that game was 8-way. --- End quote --- Bosconian is actually 4-way, which is one reason it bites. |
