    Pac-Man, Galaga and Dig Dug are classics for a reason and I can’t help but recommend this collection to everyone.

    This package will only appeal to nostalgic gamers and members of the new generation won't even purchase them because of the way they look. By releasing the same old product on Xbox One, Bandai Namco has limited their audience already.

Sadly Ms. Pack Man isn't part of the pack, but $3.99 for her game is cheaper than the $5 bucks I had to pay for it on the 360. The nice part is it's G rated so any visitors and skill levels can enjoy them.

    It's the original games, with their original flaws. It has leaderboards. With options for seeing world wide top scores, friends or personal bests. It also has the arcade initials that is shows locally, and it saves the top scores. The screen size can be adjusted from pretty small to almost most of the screen and it has some decent options.

    It does take a bit to load, for some reason it sits on a screen with pictures of game art. Then it shows the Namco logo, then it syncs. But it's still faster than the backwards compatible loading times. I couldn't seem to just press a button and skip this. I really dislike that they listed it as Arcade series in the game list. Each game list separetly so it shows Arcade Series 3 times. Dig Dug, Pac Man et would of been better listing for me. I wish it had a full screen mode. But some will like seeing the arcade art on the sides.

    The games don't seem to have 2 player hot seat, take turns mode. Which is sad. Hopefully I'm just missing how to do that. As it was not too intuitive on the 360 version, even though it did exist. If it's not there, I think they missed out on a huge opportunity. As people interested in the world wide leaderboards might want to play a 2 player game against better opponents online. And 2 player hot seat is obviously more fun when you have visitors.
