namco museum 50th anniversary gamecube review

Just take into consideration that there are virtually no extras (like interviews, photos, videos etc), very few options, When (and if) you buy Namco Museum you will also be able to play Digout and Bosconian. Skykid, which is pointless, annoying and obscure, but I guess perfectly emulating the horror of being a skykid (?). Rolling Thunder, a decent platformer/shooter with nice graphics. Mappy, the strange little unknown game that is fun for five minutes, but tends to get nervous, act stranger, and gradually reduces the poor player to a horrified excuse for a person. Galaxian, which has always been a poor man’s Space Invaders. Pole Position and the radically similar Pole Position II, both aged beyond recognition (they used to be quite nice looking games when they were originally released) but excellently emulated. The other games included are:ĭragon Spirit, which I had never played before, and is a passable top down shooter with an appropriately ridiculous backstory and cute graphics. PacMan or the original Galaga, which are actually three of the best titles available in this compilation, and are decently emulated. There are 16 games on offer, two of which ( PacMania and Galaga `88) are unlockable by attaining (pretty low) highscores in PacMan, Ms.

Namco’s Museum is an almost decent (budget) collection of some classic, some not so classic and a few pointless games, hoping to please retro gamers, to teach new gamers some old tricks, to teach young dogs strange tricks or to please the average casual gamer. On the other hand Adventure Lantern has existed for much less than a year, and this definitely is the first true retro game review to appear here. It hasn’t been so long ago… I mean it’s only been 50 years since the founding of Namco and almost 30 years since the oldest game of this compilation was released.
