Product Description

Product Description

Midway has rolled up the arcade classic Paper Boy onto the Game Boy Color platform and faithfully delivers all the fun of the original version. As classic gaming fans already know, Paper Boy challenges players to pedal through the neighborhood, successfully landing the daily news onto doorsteps and in mailboxes. All the while, players avoid typical obstacles inherent in suburbia: parked and moving cars, pedestrians, potholes, crazed homeowners, road-hogging, wanna-be Harley bikers, and such.

To add to Paper Boy's stressful work conditions, players must regularly replenish paper supplies and avoid missing deliveries, which results in lost subscribers. Non-subscribers are prime targets for Paper Boy's deep-seated anger: players rack up bonus points for hurling papers through windows of homes without "scheduled" deliveries.

Play Paper Boy not only for its historic value, but for its timeless appeal. The game honorably achieved "classic" status as a result of its busy, challenging, and very addictive gameplay. --Eric Twelker

3.0 out of 5 stars An alternative to the normal blood and gores game........., January 10, 2000

This review is from: Paperboy (Game Cartridge)

I would give this game a 3. First of all, it gets a little boring because it's repetative and all you really do is deliever papers to the customer. But I really liked this game because it is like the original Paperboy. It also isn't bloody and gorey like many of the new video games. I would recommed this game to people who have played Paperboy before becasue they know what to expect and won't be disapointed when it's not fast paced and action filled. Paperboy is not for anyone under 8 because it might be a little to hard and take to much concentration. They also might find it boring. So if you like the original Paperboy, this is the game for you!

I was really disapointed in this game. It is quite boring. I bought it about three weeks ago and I really wish I hadn't got it. It does have some fun parts hawever but they don't occur very often. Overall I don't recommend this game.

1.0 out of 5 stars Boring!, January 16, 2001

Kara (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Paperboy (Game Cartridge)

Paperboy is an extremely boring game. Nothing happens, there are only three levels and I would only buy this for 8 years or under kids. This is a good first time game for little kids. If you're a "hardcore" gamer this is NOT for you.
