Product Description
Namco's Museum 50th Anniversary Collection compiles some of the classic Namco arcade games that defined gaming in the 1980s. Go back in time and play classics like Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, and Pole Position. The new retro menu Interface allows players to explore a virtual arcade hall where each of the game's classics will be standing in its original arcade form. The only difference is, this time you don't need a pocket full of quarters! Pole Position - The milestone in racing games Pole Position II - Sequel to the original, with 4 real racetracks - Fuji, Test, Suzuka, and Seaside Rolling Thunder - Become secret agent Albatross and rescue Lelia Blitz from the evil Geldra Bosconian - Survive against an army of space stations, while avoiding asteroids and other obstacles Rally X - Players drive around a maze while avoiding chasing cars, laying smoke screens, and collecting flags Dragon Spirit - Control a powerful dragon through the air, harness spells, drop bombs and breath fire at enemies Sky Kid - Control a bi-plane and avoid enemy planes using evasive loops, while dropping bombs & shooting down other planes Xevious - Use a heavily armed fighter plane to destroy enemies and targets, in the air and on the ground Mappy - Control Mappy the police mouse, as he dodges chasing cats to collect valuable items

Ok, if you've never played one of these video games, you were born in the 90's and don't know that they are. :-)

Great games, slow loading November 11, 2009
Michael Ceciliani (New York City)
I picked up this collection of oldies but goodies around 2003 or 2004. There's 14 games plus two bonus games you can "unlock" with high scores. The games are:
Pac Man
Ms. Pac Man
Galaga
Galaxian
Dig Dug
Rally-X
Pole Position 1 & 2
Xevious
Dragon Spirit
Bosconian
Rolling Thunder
Mappy
Sky Kid
Bonus games:
Pac-Mania
Galaga 88
I did not detect anything different from these games and their arcade counterparts, like some other die-hard game reviewers did. Like the Activision Anthology, this collection also has an 80s soundtrack of different songs to listen to while you're choosing your options. My favorites are the Pac Man and Pole Position games, Galaxian, Dig Dug and Xevious. I got into Mappy and Rally-X a little, they're fun "cute type" games. I tried Bosconian and Sky Kid a couple of times. In order to play the bonus games, you must achieve a high score on their related games. The instruction booklet does NOT say what those scores are.
Now the bad stuff. You can choose options (number of lives, etc.) but going from screen to screen seems to take a long time. It's like you're saying "Come on already" waiting for the next screen. Once the game starts, you must play it through. You can't go back to the beginning, though I believe you can pause the game if the phone or doorbell rings. When the game is over, you must start from the beginning. You can't pick up from the level you were at, which is annoying as all Hell. And like the others have said, other than the two bonus games, there's no special features like interviews or anything like that. It would've been nice, but oh well.
I have three of the PS1 Namco collections, but here at least most of the "biggies" are on one disc. Despite the slow loading, this disc is mostly a "must have" if you were around in the 80s. I give it four stars. I would've given it five stars if Donkey Kong was included, but I guess Nintendo must have some exclusive-type deal with Namco about that. A good collection of retro games.
Great Game - Long on Loading September 23, 2009
Gamer
This game contains the best of the older arcade games and the graphics are pretty good. There is a long loading time for the game and each individual game. If you want to change the settings, i.e., add more men, etc. you have to leave the game and go to the original screen, then to settings. But, compared to Atari Anthology, the graphics are great!
