I don't remember the dog being quite so intense neither on the C64 version nor the Arcades, but the soundtrack and graphics are actually quite nice, though ofcourse the soundtrack by Mark Cooksey from the C64 version leaps to mind as Paperboy was one of my favourite C64 games back in the eighties.

Great graphics & game play. For me, the game goes pretty fast at the beginning. There are a lot of objects to avoid & the dog never stops chasing you. I'm not able to relax & enjoy trying to get the hang of throwing the news papers into the mail boxes. It feels rushed. The original Paperboy game goes a lot slower with less objects in the beginning & you can slow your bike speed down. Other than that. It's a fun game!

A few things need to be sorted out, namely: 1. It says that you're entitled to a "reward" every 5 or 6hrs, but when you click on the box that says "accept reward now", nothing happens. What exactly is this reward you speak of? 2. The game doesn't show how many coins you have. How are you meant to know which vehicle you can buy (if any) if you don't know how many coins you have? 3. The game gets fast too quickly. I'll give 5* once these issues are sorted.

Potential to be amazing.. I like it for about 15 mins and multiplayer doesn't seem to work or no one playing so I mean one level, one goal... Maybe future try having multiple terrains for the purpose of the different bikes honestly I have horse, motorcycle, bike, etc ... same thing from each... Mini games, better upgrades maybe helmet, shoes, etc customize characters and able to pick color of bike... But great graphics & concept... be back in the future

Game is not too bad but there are just little too many obstacles that slows you down. And sometimes it all becomes a little too much with doggy chasing you, cars coming from the front and then obstacles slowing you down. This wont stop me playing the game though

The only thing that is needed for this game is that the the news papers are not throwing out the house windows like the old school paperboy game. I find it a bit boring.
