I always find it puzzling whenever OXM reviews Arcade games, because most of the time, the games they review haven't been heard from in months. Undertow, Asteroids and Speedball 2 have hardly been spoken of in terms of previews from the IGNs and such or even the actual makers of the game, and somehow they have versions for reviewing purposes (on PartnerNet).
Baffling, if you ask me.
