Just reviewing versions from old classic systems. Many modern ports are near identical. So here are 8 Dig Dugs they should not have bothered making. And 8 really good ports. First, the list of bad Dig Dugs:
#1 Atari 2600 - horrible play, horrible graphics. Rocks are squares. Other than main
character, none of the other characters look close to arcade. [Atari 2600 version screen shot] #2 Apple II - bad play, bad graphics #3 MSDOS - accurate and good play, bad graphics #4 Intellivision - expected better from them. #5 VIC20 - good play, not the best graphics #6 Atari 800 - surprisingly bad for that system #7 Atari 5200 - graphics are capable of being better. little effort on design team. #8 TI994A - some of the graphics could have been detailed better Good Dig Dugs #1 Sega Dreamcast - Perfect in most ways from opening screen on. [Sega Dreamcast version screen shot] #2 Nintendo 64 - Perfect. same graphics, play, and development as the Sega Dreamcast. #3 Windows - very good in strange and different way #4 Nintendo Family Computer - Perfect as it can get. #5 Nintendo NES - very good and accurate. Worst part is that NES graphic flicker. #6 Atari 7800 - One of the best Arcade clones of the game. Little higher resolutions and they would have nailed it.
