Frankly, we couldn’t believe our eyes. Last May when we attended the
Electronic Entertainment Expo at the L.A. Convention Center, we never
expected to see so much support given to the classic gaming scene.
Hasbro was there in full force showing off their latest and greatest Atari games
including remakes of Q*Bert, Tetris, Missile Command and yes, even Pong.
Nintendo is continuing the Donkey Kong saga and is also taking a shot at updating
Tetris for the N64.
Game.com is giving it another whirl with Frogger and Centipede, and Konami is
releasing a disc for the PlayStation featuring a slew of lost classics including Time
Pilot and Gyruss.
On the following pages are previews and reviews of the best classic related games
we found at E3. The next 12 months certainly promises to be a great one for classic
gaming enthusiasts.
