namco 3 is the best namco

namco 3 is the best namco...because of dig doug, (which my favorite namco game choice) and you also have classic ms. pacman, and then you have very challenging games like fozon and the tower of dragua...

its a great buy and perchased it at $4.44 and thats with shipping and handeling added

but right now im building my plastion one collection back and this is the only game that is worth playing in my 4 game collection...and this game does get old fairly quickly....

Arcade greatness right at home!

Gameplay is the foundation of any video game. These games are great! Take a journey back to the past with some of these arcade favorites. Galaxian, Dig Dug.. Ms Pac Man.. dude, hard to beat that.

Old arcade games? Kinda

I really wasn't impressed with this collection, intended to be copies or "just like" the old arcade style games. Yes, has some points alike, but to me, not a whole lot.

I purchased this hoping to find a better, or closer game play to that of Galaxian/Galaga arcade game. This copy does come closer than the playstation Galaga which is in 3D style, but is not at all like the 2D arcade style game - well some "like" features of attacks and so forth.

The Nameco Museum #3 does have Galaxian, however it's more of a static one level, one formation repeater, without any other of the classic bugs, attacks or formations. You don't even get to double your ship. Not happy with this one.

Ms. Packman is pretty darn close to the arcade game, no issue's with that one.

Dig Dug, well that's just okay, but if I recall right, it's pretty close to the arcade game as well.

The other titles in the mix I never played as arcade style games, so really can't compare them. I didn't like them and won't play them, but others may find them just fine.

Namco Vol. 3 for PS1

My son loves this game and can play the games that I loved as a child, like Dig Dug and Pac Man.
It gives them a slower paced world to play in and one that's extremely nostalgic for me as well.

Volume 3 is disappointing

The games themselves are great and play just like they did in the arcade. It's difficult for me to explain precisely what I don't like about the method of quitting or switching games but it's isn't good. The menu for options or quitting a game (and starting a different game) is ONLY available from each games title screen. that means that in order to play a different game you have to lose all your lives first, you can't just press the select button and quit the game. STUPID IDEA. But as I said, the games themselves are great.
