85A shining example of what an arcade collection can and should be, featuring plenty of takes on classic arcade favorites accessed through a friendly, polished interface.
-
75Newcomers or younger gamers hopefully will try it out and see where the fun is, but ultimately this game is for those of us who grew up during that golden 80's era.
-
For classic gaming fans who were there when these titles were new or for retro fans who respect the roots of the industry, the latest edition of Namco Museum is a great budget title to pick up.
-
75Arguably, there are other classics that should have been included, but it's an excellent sampling and a nice blast from the past if you're interested in walking down memory lane.
-
Namco is so faithful to the aspect ratio of the original games that the screen is often wee tiny. [Aug 2002, p.144]
-
65While Namco Museum is fine for people who are looking for arcade classics, players who own most of these games in another format needn't bother adding this to their collection.
-
The biggest issue most gamers will have with this package is the obvious lack of the original control input devices, like the steering wheel for "Pole Position," or an arcade-joystick for "Pac-Man."
-
The Arrangements could have had much better graphics and the sound in the Arrangements is absolutely horrid.
-
40An adventurous trip to the seaside arcade would be more rewarding than this.
-
40A compilation this old and overused should have more than just some quickly ported games and a handful of awful filler titles.
