Boy, talk about bad timing.  Releasing it against Gears of War = not so smart.

I doubt it would matter, its not a retail game, and therefore stays in the public eye much longer than it otherwise would

the arcade game had a pretty small screen itself unless you were expecting the NES version of the game this shouldn't be a shock to you...
that said this is one of the first co-op shooters many gamers ever played and is a land mark game in my opinion cant wait to play it again!

OK, admit it if you're one of the dicks that likes to run backwards when your friend jumps so that they fall off the screen.  I can't imagine how many days of my life were spent playing this game with friends back in the day.

oh god i hated that even worse is when some one doesn't move so you get stuck in a death trap...or in the water fall level on nes you would respawn over a pit and just keep falling to your death!
