We just bought one of those collections adapted to PS2....you know, the old Atari console and arcade games that alot of us spent alot of tokens on in the arcades, or took over ownership of the family game console when the arcades starting moving into our homes.
The collection we bought is Taito Legends, which includes the following games:
Space Invaders 1 & 2
Jungle Hunt
Bubble Bobble (I'm already up to level 14)
Rainbow Island (aaagggghhhhh Bubble Bobble sequel)
Operation Wolf
Phoenix
Zoo Keeper
Battle Shark
Colony 7
Continental Circus
Electric Yo-Yo
Volfied
Gladiator
The New Zealand Story (ahahahaha free your kiwi bird friends from the evil walrus)
The Ninja Kids
Operation Thunderbolt
Return of the Invaders
Tokio
Plump Pop
Tube It
Great Swordsman
Space Gun
Super Qix
Exzisus
Plotting
Thunderfox
Rastan
Elevator Action (yes, Mike really did fall over laughing playing this game. He also said it's the best game he's ever played)
It's fun to be able to go back and play alot of these games, even though I could get alot of them from my parents' house, along with the Atari console...but....do we *really* need another console in this house? <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /blink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':blink:\' />

Wow... I see a lot of old games coming back. It's kind of weird I guess but cool at the same time. <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Yeah, it is kind of cool; graphics and game engines have come so far, but even at that wonderful lo-res pixelated level, the games were challenging (well, they still are) and fun (frustrating) to play.
The controls have of course been adapted to work on the PS2's controller, and sometimes I find that a bit ... awkward ... but at least I don't have to keep trying to fix the darn camera angle view thing. That really messes me up, although I am getting better at it thanks to Pacman World 3 <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />
