10 CommentsMicrosoft has revealed the next "favourite" heading to Xbox Live's Xbox Originals section; Atari platformer Zapper, which only one of us in the office has actually heard of - and he used to be the editor of Official Xbox Magazine.

From today the Atari Xbox game is available for 1200 Microsoft points (about a tenner). That's way too much by the way. Even the official blurb makes us angry:
http://medialib.computerandvideogames.com/screens/screenshot_81909_thumb300.jpg

"This is one wicked cricket! One diabolical bird, a brother in need, and eighteen twisted levels of action. Charge up the antennas, because this is getting personal. There are four interactive worlds to explore, each with dangerous hazards to avoid and eggs to capture, and a final battle with Maggie."

Of Xbox Originals Microsoft says: "Relive your favourites or find games you missed the first time around."

This game falls into neither category.

No, but Crash Bandicoot 3 is £3.99. I'd rather spend £4 on Crash 3 than a tenner on whatsitcalled any day.

Crash bandicoot 1 you mean.The only thing C1 has going for it is charm and originality, but C3 beats it on every other aspect
