Asteroids -- average port, fun to play, most of the same concept, but look, feel, and action does not mirror arcade. If you are looking for something really close to the arcade, this is not it. If you are looking for something in the ballpark and same concept, this will do. Rating: Battlezone -- great port, most of the same feel as arcade. Really, graphics are pretty good for the 2600, but not vector style like orginal. Rating Berzerk -- great port, not exact... but fun and same feel as arcade. If you like Berzerk, a must have. Even without the voice. Rating
