Videogame Review, Arcade Classics for the Sega Genesis

All three games are too chunky with unpredictable controls.  There’s erratic graphics all over.  My heart has become sour and this cartridge is a useless brick of technology.  Well, it’s historical at least.  As much as the game fails I still believe in Atari’s imagination because ships can be interpreted as skulls flying through the sky and spiders should be blending into the background like a chameleon.  But let’s be honest about the relative 2-button control and the mysterious gameplay: Sega’s wild secrets may be visible to caring eyes if we just ignore the gameplay while going through with arcade disasters.  In fact, as I’ve said in a poem for my blog, “it’s sublimation of disasters which transforms beauty.”  I can see how Atari and Sega kind of touched up some elements of fun without the companies really picking them, so it can be said that their sublimation of arcade classics renders the broken games as mildly interesting and intriguing for an office party or even in-store demonstration.  A myth is out there which tells us that failing objects never please us and it should be obvious to point out the flaws.  Then again, what about the hearts of the programmers?  Couldn’t their indications of pleasure actually be detrimental to lazy times around videogames while goals aren’t that functional for those considerable moments?  I’m trying to exhibit incredible sympathy for their stupidity and yet it’s hard to play buggy and malicious “classics” when my experience here is so awkward that I can’t tell if I need more skills or less appetite.  Still, I must confess, there’s wonder as to why Atari couldn’t have referred to their past of gaming- Atari 7800 and Atari 5200, in particular- to come up with magnificence and progress for any newfound discoveries.  Future and past go hand in hand when we determine the present tasks we oblige to with goals that can be refined.  Arcade Classics probably should’ve not been existing when Atari is thinking up of mutant penguins and jaguars; there could’ve been entirely new beauties to look at instead of pandering to broken software with the pretended notion of arcade whereabouts.  (I’m pleased about Tetris in the arcade at Pizza Cookery, Donkey Kong in a theatrical arcade in Reno, and a 60’s pinball machine in a burger spot in Sacramento.  Arcades aren’t so well known by the public!)  Beyond the shadow of a doubt, Arcade Classics is beautifully horrible and perhaps earns its messy gameplay because of Atari’s wild adventures into their stream of thought, but we need to think about the public of gaming when they’re timid and gullible for understandable submissions by customers and corporations.  Atari simply misses the boat here and it’s a large boat of possibilities to which, when Sega thinks about flying skulls and vanishing spiders, a programmer’s office is akin to a hacker’s place where imagination is so pretty to be ruined that either home is progressive for mind but not public demand.
