Majesco's newest budget-priced compilation includes paintball, dodgeball, and bowling.  Those are my kind of sports.

Usually when I see "Majesco" "$19.99" "Three games in one" together in a sentence, I go on a kitten killing rampage.  But because they have Dodgeball, I'll be nice this time.  Too bad the game will more then likely suck, though.

Well, as long as the dodgeball is decent then this might be worth while.  I would think it's kinda hard to "F" up bowling and the paintball can't be any worse than NES Gotcha! with a cursor.

There's a THQ Fair Play (I think Majesco doesn't operate in Europe and THQ handles the 2-in-1 things instead) pyramid for GBA games in stores now. There is not a single decent game on it. Granted, the real Pyramid has only a single decent game on it...
