Midway Arcade Treasures 3

Slim Collection Can't Drive 55
PlatformOVERALL
Xbox4.50
Overall 4.50
With just eight games in this collection you want each to be a real treasure, but with the exception of Rush 2049 all you get in this slim collection is fool's gold.

The games included are SF Rush:The Rock, Hydro Thunder, Super Off Road, Badlands, Race Drivin' (sold as Hard Drivin' for the Genesis), STUN Runner, SF Rush 2049 and Off Road Thunder.

With the exception of Rush 2049 the only game you will play for more than 5 minutes will be Hydro Thunder. And even then, in this age of Burnout, the both of these game seem very s-l-o-w. 2049 does include a great battle and stunt mode, though if you have a Dreamcast you can pick up this game for less than $5.

Rent it if you are nostalgic, other than that let this collection pass you by.

Yeah, I'm a sucker for collections and even I didn't bother with this one.

I can't beleive I did not mention in this review that there was none of the Midway Cruis'n games!

I guess Nintendo owns the home license.

Stun Runner was an awesome arcade game. Unfortunately, the emulation used for it in this collection was complete crap.
