Who doesn't have fond memories of Paperboy? The joy of throwing papers through windows, the soul-crushing misery of losing subscriptions, the droning, repetitive, but oh-so catchy music. Well, hold onto your swollen testes, because Paperboy: Special Delivery is free for a bit!
Featuring updated graphics, a story mode, and more forgiving gameplay, Special Delivery is a cool little title to carry around if you want a quick retro fix. You can use tilt controls or a virtual stick, depending on your preferences, and the droning, repetitive, catchy music is still there. Win!
Fun times. Go get.
