Not much to talk about this week as I was in Beijing and didn't get much game time. I guess the biggest gaming news (for me at least) is that Jetpac Refuelled was released on Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday.
I remember playing this game when it first came out on the ZX Spectrum (or rather, I remember playing Jetpac). Although the premise of the game is simple, its amazing how much fun this game still is. At times, I wonder how much this is due to the nostalgia factor. However, I never had this much fun replaying some of the other arcade classics (eg pacman).
The games premise is fairly simple. You put together a spaceship and then have to fill it with fuel. Once refuelled, you take off and fly to the next planet. After landing, you once again, have to collect fuel in order to refuel your ship before taking off for the next planet. Repeat ad inifitum.
As I said, the game is fairly simple. Harking back to a time when games were simpler and I was younger. Wow - so much nostalgia in my posts recently. Wonder why?
