    Playing the real machine instead of the (partially) emulated game really makes a difference.

    A lot of classic arcade games are rated too low in general.

    if anyone is bummed out by the rating, in context on this site, it's the 3rd highest rated game from the 1970s, which isn't nothing. just like...adjust for inflation.
