Jetpac Refuelled is a remake of the 1983 arcade game, Jetpac. But, this isn't just another sloppy port with improved graphics. Instead, Refuelled offers 128 levels (the original Jetpac had only 16), multiplayer, and a whole lot of trippy effects.
Includes two versions of the game
Retro – The classic 1980s version
Refuelled – Rare's 2007 remake of the classic "Jetpac" comes complete with entirely new hi-def graphics, menacing enemies, new smartbombs that produce an electromagnetic pulse, modernized weapon upgrades and updated gameplay for modern gamers
Earn up to 12 Achievements and 200 Gamerscore points
Completely updated graphical look of the game gives Xbox LIVE Arcade gamers a truly hi-def and in-depth gaming experience
Whether you played Jetpac in an arcade or the port in Donkey Kong 64, chances are you at least seen the game before. If not, well ... here you go.
If anything were to warrant a download, it would be either the inclusion of multiplayer or the chance to see an interactive acid trip on your TV. Think of it this way, downloading the demo can't possibly be a bigger waste of time than Novadrome was.

Way too many good arcade releases in a row. I wish they'd space them out a little more (though not by a month) so that my ass don't hurt from microtransaction rapage.
