Also included are 4 updated classics that include:

These updated classics feature new graphics with the same game-play with new features added.

Namco Museum Battle Collection allows game sharing in original mode (classic arcade games) which allows you to send the first level of 10 of the original titles to another PSP without the other PSP needing to have a disc inserted. Some of the original games have options available that were in the original arcade games like adjusting the score at which you gain another life, the number of lives you start off with, sound tests, screen tests and even the ability to rotate the screen horizontally or vertically. Some other options include the ability to use the analog stick fire missiles (Galaga and Galaxian), open doors (Mappy), use sword (Tower of Druaga) etc. and the ability to turn off screen refinement to recreate the graphics used in the original games.

Wireless multi-player features joining up to 3 of your friends in a versus match in Pac-Man Arrangement, Galaga Arrangement or New Rally-X Arrangement and play in co-op mode in Dig Dug Arrangement.

A very good classic collection for PSP.

The Good
It's got the best classic games that Namco released, like Pac-man, Ms. Pac-man, Galaga, and Xevious. There are also revamped titles, like Galaga arrangement, and Pac-Man arrangement.



The Bad
Nothing, the games are pixel perfect. But the arrangement games are nothing short of annoying. Pac-man arrangement, and Galaga arrangement are the only good ones. the multiplayer is also annoying, it lacks fun stuff.

The Bottom Line
The classic titles are very fun, don't miss out on this great PSP title. But the arrangement titles are boring, except Pac-man arrangement, and Galaga arrangement.
