Our only real gripes are the controls and the sluggishness of some of the titles on less powerful systems.
-
Tremendous value for money.
-
It definitely deserves a place on your game shelf, if not for the sheer gameplay, at the very least for the history it documents.
-
Even though I had a blast browsing through all the game had to offer I found that it was basically a re-release of the "Atari Hits Volume 1 and 2."
-
The biggest problem with this collection is the interface. How did we play these games back in the day? Dials, trackballs, joysticks, and those arcade micro-switch buttons with that distinctive 'click'. Sure, the game is playable with a mouse and keyboard, but to the people who want this game the most, it isn't the same.
-
The ports are nearly arcade-perfect for the most part, though a few of the games suffer from control issues. Still, at a retail price of less than $20, AAE can be worthwhile if you're feeling nostalgic.

Computer Gaming WorldWhile it’s fun to go back in time for a little while, I found my attention flagging after a few rounds of each game. [Jan 2002, p.96]
