Game Review & Impressions
--------------------------------------------------
Delivering papers might seem like a ridiculously mundane premise for a video game, but to Atari's credit, they managed to produce something that would become an all-time classic. This game got ported to an extensive number of home computers and consoles back in the day, but the arcade version, with it's handle-bar controller and high -res display is definitely the best way to experience the game.

The objective is simple: chuck papers into mailboxes or on the porches of subscriber's homes, and avoid all manner of obstacles lining the route. Engage in petty vandalism of non-subscriber properties for bonus points, then complete the obstacle course en route to the next stage; delivering to all subscribers will cause a new household to sub on subsequent days, while subs you miss will unsubscribe.

Although later arcade games would offer better visual and engaging experiences, I think Paperboy is a solid experience, one of the few Atari games I actually enjoy. There's something undeniably endearing about causing havoc with a sack of tabloids in American suburbia, and it's a game still worth playing today.
