Midway -- well, Warner Bros. since there's no Midway anymore -- joins the group of publishers releasing iOS compilations of classic games. The 99-cent Midway Arcade app includes emulated versions of
Spy Hunter, Rampage,
Joust,
Root Beer Tapper, Defender, and
Arch Rivals, along with "Air Hockey, Arcade Basketball, Pool, and Roll Ball" -- 3D recreations of arcade attractions.
You
know more games are available as in-app purchases. Currently, two "Game Packs" are available, one including
NARC, Total Carnage, and
APB, and another containing,
Wizard of Wor and the two
Gauntlets. We're looking very critically at these to see which of them are likely to be tolerable with touch controls. We're probably going to find out for ourselves.
