    Did Namco bring only 5 classic games on the Playstation 3? Just so stupid!!!

    Compilation of classic Namco arcade games including the evergreen Pac Man, Dig Dug and shoot 'em ups Dragon Spirit, Galaga and Xevious. Also included is attractive reboot Xevious Resurrection which is one of the few updates that is actually better than the original and it's worth the time for this title alone. A quality retro compilation.

    Definitely avoid at this price. [Aug 2010, p.101]

    The presentation here is top-notch, which is really what makes or breaks the package for me. However, it kind of sucks that there isn't support for two players in most of these games.

    Ultimately, Namco Museum Essentials is a group of old games available for $10. Namco did a great job of assembling the package but not enough effort was put into updating these classics and making it a must buy.
