Just recently started getting interested in gaming after a few years of lost interest, mostly through watching Youtube videos of rare and obscure computer games. I suddenly remembered I own a 3DO and barely own any games for it. I did buy a couple off Ebay a few years ago, but I quickly lost interes...

This game is garbage. Honestly, what's the appeal? I bought it off Ebay a couple years ago after being intrigued by the demo that came with the original Goldstar unit. There's really nothing to do. The three tables are sparse, with about 10 seconds of interactivity each. Unless I'm missing something...
