games on the virtual console this week : Uridium – Commodore 64 Fast, frantic arcade action kicks off the Commodore 64 Virtual Console line-up. Pioneer programmer Andrew Braybrook’s classic shoot ‘em up puts you in control of a space fighter tasked with destroying 15 Super-Dreadnoughts – each so big that they occupy a whole level by themselves! International Karate – Commodore 64 Archer MacLean’s classic martial arts simulation returns! Enjoy the globe-hopping karate action as you take on opponents from around the world, to the sounds of Rob Hubbard’s memorable music, either solo against the CPU or with a pal in two-player mode. Cruis’n USA – Nintendo 64 See the sights of America – at 150 miles per hour – in arcade racer Cruis’n USA. Take a whistle-stop tour of the United States – from west coast to east – in a selection of souped-up sport and muscle cars. See the Golden Gate Bridge, the Grand Canyon and the White House fly past as you compete in solo street races or go head-to-head with a friend. |
