OutRun Online Arcade

OutRun was sensation back in the 80’s, as its pseudo-3D graphics, breakneck speed, and catchy music kept people pumping quarters into their local arcade joymachines. OutRun Online Arcade takes this same addictive gameplay and adds in breathtaking new vistas, a ton of different environments, and the wildly unrealistic driving that you remember from the original. The added online modes here are a blast to play as well, ensuring that fans of the arcade will find plenty to like in this drift-happy racer. Also available for PS3 outside of the US. ($10.00)

Worst

Puzzle Quest Galactrix

The original Puzzle Quest enthralled millions with its unique combination of puzzle and RPG ideas. It also helped that its base gameplay—which was essentially Bejeweled—was a blast to play. Unfortunately, Galactrix doesn’t fare as well thanks to a generic, personality-less sci-fi scenario and uninteresting puzzle gameplay. Stick with the much deeper (and cheaper) original. Also available on PC and Nintendo DS. ($20.00)
