    The appeal of Intellivision Lives! is greater for those who were there the first time around, but with an '80s-style price tag of only $20, this is an absolute must-buy. [Feb 2004, p.38]

    There are so many fun games that it’s hard to stop playing. If you happen to run into a game you don’t like, no big deal – just move on to the next.

    I have to admit that the games are fun...Only the controls seem to be a bone of contention as some gamers have expressed that it's nearly impossible to play some of games without the actual phone-style controller.

    The control scheme falls rather flat, the documentation on actually playing the games can be spotty and the overall presentation of the whole thing is quite underwhelming.

    A well-done trip down memory lane for me, as I was an Intellivision fan for a long time (still am!). Controller issues are a problem--imagine driving your car with a PS2 joystick controller--and some games require either two players or the use of the phone keypad onscreen. Biggest wish: Some way to update the games, either completing the revisions (I.e. Basketball III) or making it somewhat more realistic (i.e. five-a-side basketball or more players or allowing rule changes). Overall, however, if you like retro-gaming, this is worth the price no matter the platform.… Expand

    Only for Intellivision Fans. I'm one, but after playing some of these games again, man do I feel old. Anyone who didn't play intellivision won't get the appeal. Although Utopia is still one of the best.… Expand

    I'm a huge fan of the Intellivision, and even owned one as a teen, but this is such a poor port of the system to the PS2 that I can';t recommend it to anyone but a collector. I nor my 4 years son enjoyed this title - so sad :-(… Expand
