WIZARD OF WOR
 At the CGE in Vegas last month there was a real Wizard of Wor and it was very difficult to get onto it and play it, because apparently arcade gamers in a freeplay environment forget everything they ever knew about lines or courtesy. I'm sure the deaf Chinese kid was staring at the thing as the owner tried to pack it up Sunday night, trying to reach down and trigger the "more credits" wire without making eye contact with anyone or anything. The 800 version of WoW is pretty good - a little weird at first, as the first joystick port controls the blue worrior (sic) and the second one controls the yellow... and the game demands that the first joystick port be player two. So you always have the yellow asshole involved in the game no matter which version you play. It looks like somebody fucked up for the 8-bit, but it doesn't really matter. Plugging the joysticks in and out of the system is easy and they are recognized instantly.
The graphics on the real version of WoW are blocky and shitty, so the 800 version maps pretty well. It's very playable and you can control how many lives you get before you start playing. A lot of fun in two player mode, as the game, like Joust, can go from co-op to a deathmatch instantly.
WIZARD OF WOR: HOLDS UP NICELY!
