Midway Arcade Treasures 2 brings 20 all-time classic arcade games to the XBox. Get ready for a blast from the past as the sequel to Midway Arcade Treasures offers hours of retro-gaming bliss and a history of the origins of each of these memory-joggers. Some of the treasures on offer this time around, then: APB is the cops and robbers game where you take the role of Officer Bob and his police car, in pursuit of the bad boys. It's a top down experience that includes plenty of obstacles and pick-ups to hinder/help you. Hard Drivin' lets you drive a fast car around a tricky stunt course full of drawbridges and loops and the like. You have to drive as fast as you can, all the while avoiding oncoming traffic. Arch Rivals is a one-on-one basketball game that doesn't recognise foul play! Gamers are actively encouraged to punch out their opponents. It's a kind of precursor to Midway's NHL Hitz, but in a warmer environment and taller players with more teeth. Primal Rage is a global head-to-head battle for survival featuring seven life-size digitised dinosaurs. Each character has an arsenal of nearly 70 moves, including specials and finishing moves. While on the subject of special moves, we have to mention the presence of Mortal Kombats 2 and 3. They're both here, and until now, we'd forgotten just how brutal they were. Gauntlet II has more than 100 levels of action, as you take on the powers of an archer, valkyrie, warrior or wizard, and seek to discover the hidden gifts of the Secret Room, come face-to-face with the fearsome dragon and watch out for the death curse of the evil IT! The games mentioned above are just the tip of the iceberg. There are 20 games in all, the ones we haven't mentioned yet are listed below: Championship Sprint Cyberball 2072 NARC Pit Fighter Spy Hunter 2 Steel Talons STUN Runner Timber Total Carnage Wizard of Wor Xenophobe Xybots
