Namco Museum: Virtual Arcade Review
by admin on Feb.02, 2010, under Review
November 6, 2008 –
Bandai Namco has been releasing compilations of its classic arcade games since dinosaurs roamed the Earth, and each game console is all but guaranteed to see a version at some point in its life cycle. The original Xbox got its edition in 2002, and now it’s the Xbox 360’s turn.
The main difference between the original Xbox Namco Museum game and this year’s Namco Museum: Virtual Arcade is the addition of Namco’s entire Xbox Live Arcade catalog to date. That means for $39.99 you’ll get the XBLA games Galaga Legions, Galaga, Pac-Man Championship Edition, Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Mr. Driller Online, Dig Dug, Xevious and New Rally-X. All are the full versions, and each includes 200 Achievement points (that’s a possible 1,800 points for those keeping score at home).

In addition to those nine games, you’ll also get a collection of classic Namco games from the 1980s, ranging from the truly legendary (Pole Position) to the questionable (Pac-Mania) and entirely forgettable (Dragon Buster). And unfortunately, this game also includes the tragic Arrangement remakes of Dig Dug, Pac-Man and other classic Namco properties that appeared on Namco Museum. Here’s a complete list of the “Museum Classics” included on the Namco Museum: Virtual Arcade disk:
Baraduke Metro-Cross
Bosconian Motos
Dig Dug II Pac
