Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Execute a devastating counterattack against a massive alien invasion in this all-new edition of Missile Command. There are two heart-pounding ways to play. In the Classic game, you have to defend cities from a shower of alien missiles. And just like the original game, the longer you play, the more missiles you must destroy. In the Ultimate game, you battle aliens, city by city, around the world in an ever-widening theater of war.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is not your father's Missile Command, unfortunately., December 31, 2000

This review is from: Missile Command (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)

This new updated version of the arcade classic is a huge dissappointment. Its look and feel is more of "space invaders" than of missile command. Basiclly this game suffers from inappropriate use of 3-D effects and even worse player control. Anyone who loved the original will see this as a missed opportunity by Atari.

3.0 out of 5 stars An ok game from an older computer, December 30, 2000

This game does not compete with newer games such as the command and conquer series or any newer games. It lacks in graphics but is a good game if you own an older computer or one with less ram and less graphics power. It is still fun to kill time on though

Good for nostalgia purposes only...the game is marginally fun at either level, but since I got the game in a value pack with 3 other games I can't complain too much. I'd suggest keeping this in mind before you buy the game at any price: do you remember the arcade game? If not then pass. Or play the original at Games.com to see if you'd be interested in this, which is somewhat updated from the Arcade Version but not too much.
