We mentioned a while back that Midway Arcade Origins was on its way and like a Japanese train, the game has arrived on time. Available on PS3 and 360 for $29.99, the pack contains over 30 games including some stone cold co-op classics; Rampage, Gauntlet, Total Carnage and Xybots, amongst others.
When Midway went out of business in 2010, their XBLA titles like Gauntlet and Smash TV got pulled - sad times all around. Since then, Warner Brothers rescued the Mortal Kombat franchise with a fantastic retail sequel and the so-so downloadable compilation, Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection. Later this year, Warner Bros. will bring much of the Midway archive back to consoles in a new retail compilation, Midway Arcade Origins. Naturally, it's packed with co-op classics at relatively low price.
