DC writes: "It wouldn't be a stretch if I said Sega's Virtual On was my favorite series. I adored the arcade original so much that I convinced my parents to drop me off at the movie theater arcade with absolutely no intention of seeing a movie. I loved the Saturn port enough to buy it twice; once for the original copy and another time for the NetLink enabled version (which, in turn, racked up impressive long distance fees). I imported the Dreamcast incarnation of Oratorio Tangram with my first ever paycheck, then nearly destroyed my three month old console trying to make it work."
D+PAD Writes:
For a student constantly on the lookout for cheap games to play and not really wanting to buy full-priced new releases, second-hand shops and Xbox Live Arcade seemed the perfect solution. Some purchases were really not worth playing, but there were some real gems that turned up from time to time – some of which were clearly at their best when played multiplayer, but had nobody online because perhaps they had not been critical successes, or had been out so long everyone had lost interest. So it’s time to fight the fight for these obscure games – and if people can get them and play them, it can only be a good thing!
The Lost Gamer writes "Xbox 360 owners can get their hands on Sega's HD remake of the classic Virtual-On, full title Cyber Troopers Virtual On Oratorio Tangram, for just 800 Microsoft Points as the Xbox Live Deal of the Week for Gold Members."
