80s arcade classic Burgertime has been regurgitated into the 21st Century, courtesy of Monkeypaw Games. Rather than giving the ancient cabinet a simple lick of HD paint, the developers have created a new title that takes the burger flipping gameplay of the original, with new ingredients to bring the game up to modern standards. I’ve always got the hunger for a good retro remake, a hunger that hopefully Burgertime World Tour can satisfy – Order Up!

I think that's one of the problems of it. It pretty much just sold a few thousand copies.
We take a look at this remake of an arcade classic? Does it stack up?
GIZORAMA - So, when the original BurgerTime came out for arcades in 1982, unfortunately, I was not alive. In fact, I pretty much missed out on the entire “arcade gaming” generation. By the time I started playing video games in the 90s, arcades were all but eradicated in my hometown and consoles were what you had to have access to if you wanted to play video games. It goes without saying, that I never got a chance to play the original BurgerTime. So, I felt it necessary to go back and play the original before I sat down to play BurgerTime: World Tour. Regrettably, the next generation “remake” of BurgerTime fell short of doing the series justice.
All this talk of burgers is making me hungry.
