One
of the big ways for old game-makers to make money is to re-release their
games; in the past, this was accomplished with direct porting, but now it's
more likely to be the result of emulation layers. Midway's Arcade Treasures
line takes this approach, pulling in "Classic" Midway arcade titles
and re-offering them to players on consoles.
Like
all compilations, not all of the good games from Midway's past are on this
collection. Nor are all the games true gems; some of them were just put in to
pad the game count. Still, it's worth taking a look.
