Now u can have all of the classic games on ur ps1. It has many things to do on it unstead of just playing the original arcade game. What u can do is walk around the museum and look at all of the game rooms or just explore and see what is there. Each room that u walk in that is a game has a really cool movie clip before u play them. There is this one room that tells u all of the info about games and when they came out and how popular they were. Which is awsome to learn about it. The graphics in the museum r great for the ps1 but when u play the arcade games they got changed from the original by a tiny bit and the music is more clear. It has many of the classics that u can play single or multiplayer on which is fun. When u get this game dont think all there is is the arcade games in it, there is much more than that. It is an awsome game.

Not worth what I paid for it, but my ex-girl friend still loves to play it.
Since I don't want to upgrade like my kids I still have my PlayStation 1 and I came across this and when I seen alot of the old Atari games on it I had to get it. If you like the old school games then this is a must to add to your collection. I highly Recommend it.
"Without MRS PAC-MAN and DIG DUG, this collection would suck!"
This is a great "Nastalgia" gamer who knows how it all began when PAC-MAN was first played on the COMMODORE 64, and AMIGA computers. Now today its even hotter then ever. New generations as well as old are at it again going Pac-wild with The whole Pac-Family games. I will never get tired of Pac-Man and Mrs. Pac-Man, and they are still hard and challenging as hell!
I remember playing Dig Dug on an old computer in my Support home work class back in Junior High in NYC, and today its still a collectors and a classic.
A must buy Gem to keep forever for those who love these games and want to play them on the PSX. The playstation controller is great with PAC-MAN games as well as other games from all the namco Museum collection.
This collection of games from Namco is a blast from the past for anyone who grew up playing video games at home on Atari or who spent their entire life savings at the arcades. The games included on this collection are: "Ms. Pac Man", "Dig Dug", "Galaxion", "Phozon", "Pole Position II", and "Tower Of Druaga". For those who don't own a PS2, NAMCO MUSEUM VOL. 3 is worth owning because of "Ms. Pac Man", "Dig Dug", and "Galaxion".
"Ms. Pac Man" is just as fun to play as the original "Pac Man" but is just slightly more difficult and gives a more continues the "story" begun in "Pac Man".
"Dig Dug" is one of the classic arcade games of the 80s. The game seems easy enough to play (dig your way through dirt, kill monsters before they kill you, and collect vegetables). However, the game becomes increasingly difficult as you progress and before you know it your running away more than you are shooting at monsters because there's just too many of them.
"Galaxion" is another arcade classic. It takes the premise of "Space Invaders" one step further so that instead of defending a planetary base from destruction and invasion, you're in space trying to destroy an enemy fleet before they blow you up. In "Space Invaders" you could hide your gun behind turrets, but there is no place to hide in "Galaxion."
The other three games on the collection are fairly forgettable and were somewhat obscure in the day. "Phozon" is a type of puzzle game where you try to match up the phozons with the pattern without getting blown to bits. "Pole Position II" is a racing game where you blow up if you get too far off course or run into items. In that sense its realistic. However, the game is extremely difficult to play because the analog component of the paddle isn't compatible and you don't have a joystick so you're forced to drive your car using the directional buttons. What a pain. "Tower of Druaga" is the final game on the collection. It involves trying to get Gil to climb through all the levels of the Tower. It's kind of like an early video game version of role playing. It's kind of interesting, but it takes an incredibly long amount of time to defeat.
Overall, this is a great collection for anyone who grew up playing video games in the 80s. For those who are too young to remember Atari, the game is nice to play because of its retro and anything retro is cool.
