CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This program itself isn't a game. It's a portal leading to hundreds of excellent arcade games. Most of the games offer 60-minute trials and cost $19.95 to register. The Web Games tab lets you play free Web-based variations using a special plug-in. The program also can search your hard drive for all the games you already have, providing one-stop access to the lot. If it misses a game, you can drag and drop its shortcut onto the RealArcade window. The interface also gives you access to game reviews and message boards so you always can get cheats and tricks from the community. The program includes no adware, although ads sometimes appear in the interface for the Web games. The only downside is installing the package can take quite a while, but we think it's worth the time. We recommend RealArcade to all casual and arcade gamers.Publisher's description

"old version REAL ARCADE awesome, new version SUCKS"
Pros: I've purchased over 200 games on Real Arcade in past 5 yrs, probably closer to 300, & now I can't redownload ANY of them unless I have the old version which my CRASHED computer took with it
Cons: The old Real Arcade, like the old Webshots.com was a GREAT online site, but like Webshots, it was destroyed by everyone trying to change or "tweek" it. Stupid idiots, they gotta ruin everything good.
Summary: I've purchased over 200 games on Real Arcade over the past 5 or so years, probably closer to 300, and now I can't redownload ANY of them unless I have the old version which my CRASHED computer took with it, and the new version acts like those games ... read more >>

"have been getting broken link message no satisfaction"
Pros: had no prob. at first like the monthly games
Cons: until the past 3-4 weeks all ok then all i get is broken link real says its my isp or something else but it isn't. Had me uninstall my arcade console so lost all my games and now cant get on any of their websites or subsidiaries to download again
Summary: I want the realarcade console or I want all my money back. They won't help or fix their link. It appears I am not the only one they have done this too.
