    Not only do you get some of the most stunningly playable titles from gaming history, with a simple and easy way to select them, but also a wide selection of bonus features with which to keep real retro fanatics' juices flowing.
  2. One of the best arcade compilation titles you will ever see. Not only does the game reintroduce some favorites and long-lost classics, but also some interviews and pieces of fascination for historians.

    Trips down memory lane have peaks and valleys, but this one is definitely worth taking. [Jan 2006, p.138]
  4. The load times are quick and the games are fun and are sure to bring back memories for those old enough to remember when they first were released.
  5. For anyone with the inclination to be educated in how games used to consist of pure gameplay magic, or for those who wish to revisit their gaming pasts, Taito Legends is a superior collection of titles, some of which are truly classics in the absolute sense of the word.
  6. If you want to play some great classic arcade games, this is your game.
  7. Retro fans will easily drop $20 to secure themselves a piece of gaming history while more casual fans will most likely better served giving Taito Legends a rental, but either way, it's money well spent.
  8. 75
    There's plenty of good, plenty of bad and plenty of weird on Taito Legends. The games are reproduced well, too, if not precisely up to arcade perfection.
  9. 75
    If you have fond memories of the arcade, have a sibling that stinks at games or just want a solid collection of games then Taito Legends is for you.

    ou reset highscores at all. All of your high scores will be permanently deleted and no load function can fix it. Since they don't explain in the game I have to rate this extremely bad game design very low.
