With it, players will have the option of enjoying their favorite games in one-to-four-player game formats, depending on the title, and will experience a collection of classic titles that represent a fresh, new era in gaming relative to other "classic" game compilations.

It has its little glitches and problems here and there, but the bonus material is nice and most of the games are nearly identical to the arcade originals that they're trying to duplicate.

Many people will tell you that "Mortal Kombat II" and "3" alone are worth the $20, and when you notice how many other great arcade games are gathered here it becomes obvious that it's well worth its price.

There are far more games in this package that will appeal to the current generation of videogamers, since most of the titles in the pack offer far more depth and replay value than the original collection.

Not all of the games constitute what I'd consider "classics" or "treasures,"...
