Rating: Summary: Great Fun1 Review: I've really enjoyed playing most of the games in this package. There are just two things which diminish my enjoyment. One is that I have to reset my "Settings" mode on my computer to a 256 bit color setting. Otherwise the games don't work properly. The second is that I need to purchase a joystick because I just can't get the Pac Man and Mrs. Pac Man to work with just the arrow direction keys - I'm not too adept with those keys when speed is required. I love Pole Position. Have lots of fun times with that one. I have tried Dig game, but again I think a joystick will make it easier. Good buy. Lots of hours of FUN!

Rating: Summary: Arcade started from the classic games. Review: If you grew up in the 80's you can't go wrong with these games. These games were the best and highly rated back then. I remember going to the arcade centers waiting in line for a turn to play theses games. The classic arcade games are the original start of arcade games trend,You have to respect that, if it wasn't for theses original games that started the arcade trend where would we be. I only play the classic games and nothing else. I have nothing against the new age games today,even though they are more enchanced, but there are just to many buttons and gadget you have to use to play the game, I can't keep up with all those different buttons to play. I just like it simple. Its so much fun. I love the classic games and finally found them on a cd rom.
Rating: Summary: Very Disappointing Review: Purchased this along with Logitech's WingMan Force 3D joystick and it was a waste of a lot of money. The range of motion required to make the basic up, down, left, right moves just isn't there. Its either the software, the joystick or both. I would have been better off trying to buy one of the old arcade machines and would have at least been able to play it.Don't waste your money!!

Rating: Summary: RETRO GAMEING Review: REMEMBER THE TIMES...WHEN PAC-MAN WAS KING? BACK IN THE 80'S THIS GAME IN THE ARCADE WAS ONE TO WAIT FOR. WHETHER YOU KNEW YOUR PATTERNS OR YOU JUST HUNG IN THERE THIS GAME KEPT YOU ON YOUR TOES! DO IT AGAIN AND BUY THIS TIMELESS CLASSIC. P.S. NO WAITING

Rating: Summary: Classic Arcade Games on Your PC Review: This disc will be a definite must have if, like me, you wasted great amounts of time as a young person playing the games on this disc in their original arcade versions. You will find yourself idling away the hours once again with the following classics: Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man, Dig Dug, Galaxian and Pole Position. I must admit that I have yet to play Pole Position as I do not possess a joy stick and said device seems crucial to worthwhile play on this game. The same can be said of Galaxian also, but I have nonetheless had fun with this Space Invaders variation. I purchased this disc primarily for the two Pac Man games but was surprised to find Dig Dug emerging as a favorite. Each of the games included here is identical to the classic arcade version (although I could swear you were allowed more free "lives" in the original versions of Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man and Galaxian, all of which reward only one extra per game here). All in all, a solid disc that will provide much entertainment.
