Rating: - The best versions of these games!
Even if you have other versions of this game if this one is worth it because this one was done by emulation experts Digital Eclipse. The previous versions were not. If you're not familiar with them they also did the three Midway volumes, the 2 Capcom volumes and the Atari collection. Perfect sounds, graphics and as another reviewer wrote the old patterns work here since these games are copied from the originals. If you're playing one of the Pac-man games grab a PS2 compatible arcade stick and you'll get the full experience.
Rating: - great memories
I love this game. Playing pac-man, ms pac man again after so many years is great. friends want to have game nights and see who is the best (cause we all might have exagerated how good we used to be!)
Rating: - Worse than last one!
This 50th anniversary collection stinks! The last release named namco museum was MUCH better, in addition to the original games you get a remake version with updated graphics and stuff.
This 50th collection is just original games, nothing else. The menu and options are dumbed down too, for example you CAN'T set the screen to split mode which puts all the score and number on one side which you CAN do in the last collection.
Overall this game is worse than the last one! Should be renamed Namco museum don't buy this 50th collection get the previous version! Unless you really want the few extra games like rolling thunder or dragon spirit.
Rating: - Good old classics
My six year old son likes playing with this. Games are real easy to play. These are the games that I remember playing when I was a kid going to arcades.

I love these games. It has a lot of the old games that I played as a youth. My grandson enjoys playing also. I would buy from this seller again.
