Critic Reviews for Namco Museum Arcade Pac
If you're a Pac-Man diehard, you'll find a lot to love with the Namco Museum Arcade Pac. Otherwise, I'd give this one a pass.
Namco Museum Arcade Pac tries to let retro game lovers have more of their cake and eat it, too, by throwing in the more modern Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 Plus into the mix. While it dishes out a nice serving, I wish this particular treat came with a few more slices as it's missing several old-school Namco classics. Still, it's a pretty good mouthful for fans of retro games who also want the sugar rush of Championship Edition 2 Plus.
However you choose to play it, Galaga ’88 is worth experiencing. For those who struggle to engage with the older fixed shooters, it’s a nice game to bridge the gap between those classics and more modern shoot ’em ups. And for those who have been happily following the series since its earliest days, it’s a fascinating and well-designed evolution of the formula. It’s one of Namco’s best arcade games — and one that doesn’t get talked about nearly enough these days.
