Namco's Museum Vol. 3
From the makers of
Soul Calibur
comes a tour of the ancient days of gaming. For those who remember
Ms. Pac-Man
and
Atari
, for those who loved
Dig-Dug
, and those of you who spent way too many quarters on
Galaxian
, this little treasure is for you.
While it does contain some forgettable titles such as
Phozon
, a deadly boring puzzle game, and the
Tower of Druaga
, a sad, sad attempt at a top-down role-playing game,
Namco Museum Vol. 3
is worth its price for the addictive classics alone.
Pole Position II
is also included, and, unlike modern racing games where you can knock opposing racers out of the way with a quick side swipe,
Pole Position II
's car explodes at the slightest contact. This was too much of a habit to break, but the nostalgia alone can be worth the effort.
Although this is a fun trip into video game history, younger gamers could be bored due to the low-tech nature of the package. But parents of the new video game generation should feel free to plug this into their child's PlayStation and say aloud, "When I was your age..."
