Bubbles. Defender Gauntlet up to 4 players Joust. Joust IIKlax. Marble Madness. Paperboy. Rampage up to 3 players Rampart up to 3 players Roadblasters. Robotron 2. 08. 4Root Beer Tapper. Satans Hollow. 72. Sinistar. Smash TVSplat. Spy Hunter. Stargate. Super Sprint up to 3 players ToobinVindicators. Verdict Perhaps the holy grail of arcade collections, but as common as a paper cup, this compilation features some of the greatest games from the Golden Age of Arcades. Ataris System 2 games are standout representatives of mid 8. Williams games are all highly influential coin ops from the very early years of arcades. The PS2s dual joystick makes playing Robotron 2. Marble Madness is still surprisingly fresh and playable. Rampart is tricky to play, but still extremely fun. Its essentially the progenitor tower defense game. But that trio is a mere aperitif to the rest of the games here. Pick any of them. You just cant go wrong. If youre looking to collect the best arcade compilations, Midway Arcade Treasures Volume 1 is where you should begin and itll cost you around 5 if you look around. Rating 55. Midway Arcade Treasures Volume 2. Rampage World Tour. Mortal Kombat IIMortal Kombat IIIGauntlet IIPit Fighter. Primal Rage. Hard DrivinKozmik Kroozr. Narc. Championship Sprint. Cyberball 2. 07. 2Spy Hunter IIArch Rivals. Wacko. Total Carnage. A. P. B. Wizard of Wor. Timber. Xenophobe. Xybots. Verdict This feels like a second string selection, but only because Volume 1 is so damn good. In terms of standout games, Total Carnage packs some intense Robotron style action, and Gauntlet II continues the high quality dungeon crawling introduced by its predecessor. Arch Rivals is entertaining, and essentially paved the way for the 1. NBA Jam. Timber is stupid, but is surprisingly entertaining. Narc is notable for having some of the earliest digitized graphics seen in a game, but it hasnt aged well. It wasnt a looker back in the 8. Theres also A. P. B., Xybots and Cyberball, all of which are worth a second play, and Hard Drivin should be checked out if only to see what a cutting edge driving simulation looked like in the mid 8. The Mortal Kombat games are also quite strong, and theres Pit Fighter and Primal Rage if you just cant get enough early 9. See. Not bad at all, really. Rating 45. Midway Arcade Treasures Volume 3. Badlands. Offroad Thunder. Race DrivinSan Francisco Rush the Rock Alcatraz Edition. S. T. U. N. Runner. Super Off Road including its upgradeadd on pack, Super Off Road Track Pack Hydro Thunder console version San Francisco Rush 2. Verdict This ones for completists only. Both Hydro Thunder and San Francisco Rush 2. Play. Station version, while the latter is a port of the Dreamcast game. That leaves a fairly meager selection of leftovers. San Francisco Rush the Rock Alcatraz Edition is the standout game of this compilation, but it doesnt have to do much standing out to shine amongst this rather dull selection. S. T. U. N. Runner is a runner up in terms of something worth a quick play. It was sensational for its time, but now feels pretty clunky. Offroad Thunder offers some, albeit limited fun, but it feels dated now. Rather like almost everything on this compilation. Pretty weak stuff overall. Rating 1. 55. Capcom Classics Volume 1. The Battle of Midway. Kai. Bionic Commando. Commando. Exed Exes. Final Fight. Forgotten Worlds. Ghosts n Goblins. Ghouls n Ghosts. Gun. Smoke. Legendary Wings. Mercs. Pirate Ship Higemaru. Section ZSon. Son. Street Fighter IIStreet Fighter II Champion Edition. Street Fighter II Turbo Hyper Fighting. Super Ghouls n Ghosts. Colorado Drivers License Previous Type N Connectors. Trojan. Vulgus. Verdict One of the best arcade compilations out there, this winning array of coin ops spans a huge selection of game types. Theres a trio of top tier fighting games, a variety of killer shooters, classic run and gunners, legendary platformers, an awesome side scrolling beat em up, and thats only the half of it. Ultimately, Capcom Classics Volume 1 is a testament to the creativity and imagination of the designers working at Capcom during the 8. True visionaries. A stellar package that contains a wealth of great games with great gameplay, and lets not forget some great tunes too. Rating 55. Capcom Classics Volume 2. Counter Attack. Avengers. Black Tiger. Block Block. Captain Commando. Eco Fighters. The King of Dragons. Knights of the Round. Last Duel. Magic Sword. Mega Twins. Quiz and Dragons Capcom Quiz Game. Side Arms Hyper Dyne. Street Fighter. Strider. Super Street Fighter II Turbo. The Speed Rumbler. Three Wonders. Tiger Road. Varth Operation Thunderstorm. Verdict After going all out for their first compilation, Capcoms second feels more like an also ran. But thats mostly because many of these games are obscure rarities that most Western players know little about. Many are still fun to play and can be quite a revelation if you never played them the first time around. In terms of standouts, King of Dragons, Knights of the Round, and Magic Sword are all interesting oddities that are well worth a look. And Strider really shouldnt be missed. But really, this compilation is all about discovery. Theres bound to be at least a few games that you wont have played before, and the chances are youll have plenty of fun playing them. Rating 3. 55. Namco Museum 5. Anniversary. Pac Man. Ms. Pac Man. Pac Mania. Galaga. Galaga 8. Galaxian. Dig Dug. Pole Position. Pole Position IIRolling Thunder. Rally XBosconian. Dragon Spirit. Sky Kid. Xevious. Mappy. Verdict Another must have compilation, Namco Museum rounds up a whos who of key titles from the early days of the Golden Age of Arcades.
