This was the first game ever made. Or was it? It was made in 1972 and was also the first arcade machine made. Years later it was brought out for the atari. Theres also been other versions of this game made. Also its been brought out for other consoles over the years. Its the most basic game ever made. Its a game played by two players. ...  Read the complete review

I bought Pong hoping for some good old fashioned fun, but was bitterly disappointed. I found the game very slow, and nearly fell asleep when playing two player, having time to go and make a cup of tea mid play ( well, almost). The game seems to have been aimed at the child end of the market, but as anyone knows a childs attention span ...  Read the complete review

Pong has gone to be one of the worst games that I got for Christmas. Pong involves moving a solid pad up and down the screen, to deflect the ball back to the opposing player, be it the computer of a friend human player. This does, as you get through the game, go further and further away from the point of the games, e.g playing on ...  Read the complete review

I saw this video games programme the other day and it had the original version of 'Pong' from the 1970's and I just had to have a go on it. It looked top (I know, very sad.) So I went on a rampage of the town and found it for the playstation for a bargain price of £9.99. The first few levels are the basic 'Pong' idea, and ...  Read the complete review

What's the point in antiques anyway? Surely a new car/house/church/nose grommet will be better than a dodgy, reconditioned version of the Same Old Thing? I'm bein deliberately provocative. This is definitely a case of horses for courses... some folk like retro stuff by definition and others prefer brand, spanking new gear. Perhaps ...  Read the complete review

Am I right in saying the original Pong was the first game to use a graphical interface? Maybe. Anyway, that game (2 paddles, 2 goals, and one bouncing ball) still forms the basis of this latest edition. I usually approach remakes of classic games with trepidation as they rarely live up to reputation (e.g. Space Invaders and more recently ...  Read the complete review

When WWF Attitude came out it was the best wrestling game unchallenged. Even now its Create-a-Wrestler mode is far superior to that of any other wrestling game. The wrestling game that followed Attitude, WWF Smackdown, lacked two important features that Attitude has. Firstly, a good Creat-a-Wrestler mode. On Smackdown there is hardly any selection ...  Read the complete review

Pong is such an old game, and it is one of those classic games including super mario bros, tetris, sonic, space invaders and Zelda. The idea of this puzzle game is very simple. As in the classic nintendo game alley way, you have a bat and there is a ball bouncing around the screen. Instead of having to destroy many blocks at the top of the screen ...  Read the complete review

Pong is a great game, there are dozens of "boards" all very colourful and in 3D. It`s very addictive, you can`t wait to see what the next level looks like. In single player it is a challenge, some levels are tough, but it is always great fun. In two player mode it`s superb, play against your best mate and the first to "score ...  Read the complete review

This is a remake of the first computer game ever but i don't think this game is going to get a place in the history books. You have two bats and a ball, simple, you just try and score points just as you would in tennis. The thing is, games have changed and so have the tastes of gamers. They want more action, adventure and not classic ...  Read the complete review

I heard there was a remake of the classic pong game, I thought cool, hope it's good. I played the demo the other day I couldn't believe how much they had ruined the game. They have tried to make a simple game into something more complicated. It doesn't work, the only reason why this game was so good was becuse of the simple idea. They ...  Read the complete review

Yes, Pong. The original video game, which the older ones amongst us may remember - black and white screens, the odd bleep here and there. There was absolutely nothing to it at all, and yet it was hugely addictive. It was therefore only a matter of time before someone did a conversion whether it was a good idea or not. Only this isn?t really a ...  Read the complete review

When I first heard that there's going to be a remake of Pong, I though "oh no - another cash in", but I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of imagination that has gone into the many game modes. The graphics aren't too great, although it was to be expected given the context of the game. Gameplay wise, it's actually quite ...  Read the complete review
