Magnificent

The Good
It's the best version of Breakout I've ever played. ...with Breakfree coming in at a close second.

The powerups are varied. It's tough. The ball moves really fast, and keeps getting faster. Essentially, we've got hardcore Breakout on our hands.

Oh, and it's especially good in multiplayer!

The Bad
The sound effects are a bit...chirpy. Then again, we're talking 1992, possibly a low budget, and PC speakers.

The Bottom Line
Very, VERY fun, hard and about as addicting as Plants vs. Zombies.

Quite horrible, really.

The Good
Another example of bad shareware (along the lines of Clyde's Revenge), Aquanoid has the exact looks and none of the appeal of the original classic, Arkanoid. With than in mind, lets see what's good about Aquanoid.

Oh, right. I forgot. Nothing. Moving right along.

The Bad
Bad graphics (same as Arkanoid's, but years later, so in short - huh?), terrible sound (or lack thereof, for that matter) and genuinely bad gameplay. Heck, even the mouse control sucks.

The Bottom Line
Stay away from it, or you might get infected.
