Paperboy

This is a great game. This is even better then Pac-Man. The concept of the game is to deliver papers to the customers and destroy the property of non-customers. You have to get through the entire week. There's also a number of obstacles such as dogs, cars, motorcycles, angry neighbors, signs, fences, curbs and many others. At the end of the round there's a an obstacle course as well for a bonus. I love this game. I have it on my old 1985 Tandy personal computer and in Gameboy, original Gameboy. This is a great game if you like older, eighties typed video games. Its also a good game if you don't like killing games. This is not only a fun game but a funny game. Rock on Paperboy! Rock on!

Arcade: Great sound, excellent scrolling video, and those handlebar controls. Music is jammin', good quality tune, speech bites are funny. Rather than a traditional joystick, bicycle handlebars are actually very responsive with the button on the bar as the 'throw paper' trigger. Challenging but not impossible, though a bit brutal to give you a game over rather than a continue. Plenty of action in delivery papers, hitting 'bad guys', targets on a training course, and out maneuvering nuisances.

Commodore 64: Impressive rendition, maintaining a lot of the graphics integrity. Controls suffer a bit from the arcade version as the joystick seems to be not quite as good at moving/articulating. Sounds are fairly accurate as well.

Nintendo Entertainment System: What on earth is this? Terrible mess. Red and white houses only, awful controls, weird sounds, bad collision detection. This game is simply not fun. I have to give points because it vaguely resembles Paperboy, but just barely.
