I wanted to love this, and I think in theory I really could have, but boy the story just sucks the life right out of this otherwise pretty compelling game idea. The multiple arcade games are all fun in their own right, and the Outrun clone in particular is really good, but the trite cutscenes in between and overall lack of a statement this game makes besides "video games good escapism" bugged me to no end. With all that said, though, I would love to see 199X, because there's a lot of fertile ground for arcade machine ideas there to play with.
