The game is fun and can be mildly informative when it works. The problem is that the game has sound and lag issues for some people and Ubisoft support is the worst customer support that I've ever dealt with. The game used to work fine, then one day I started having audio issues that make the game completely unplayable. I experience very loud crackling noises that overwhelm anything that I try to play. Ubisoft just treats me like an idiot and expects me to spend more money on a solution that doesn't work. The lag and audio issues just seem to come and go for people with zero help from Ubisoft. They refuse to acknowledge the issue and therefore have no accountability to fix it. Could have been a great product but Ubisoft refuses to support it beyond continued dlc that tries to take your money. Save your money or you'll just end up with a broken and frustrating experience.

This is a great game for old school gamers and young gamers alike. Midway has included a great variety of arcade games from yesteryear that can either fuel nostalgia for older gamers or give young gamers a chance to play simpler games that only have one or two buttons to press instead of the complicated mess that most games are today. Most of the 31 games are faithful recreations that represent the golden age of arcade gaming with great co-op play and leaderboards for single players. Some of the best are the old school shooters and classic top down driving games. A few games suffer from technical issues having bad controls but rampart is the only one where it's near game breaking. Fantastic collection that's only $15-20 brand new and is great fun for trophy hunters (easy plat), leaderboard fanatics (one for each game making 31 boards), young gamers (very simple controls for most games), and anyone looking for their classic fix.

Bought this game plus the bundle for $18. Horrible mistake on my part. It is an entertaining game for the first 2 hours then is just plain repititive and boring. Anyone looking for a top down twin stick shooter could get either a better bang for their buck on PSN or could buy COD black ops for about $20 and play the unlockable zombie arcade. I would give this game a little higher score if it were cheaper but $15 for a short 3 hour campaign with little variety is a rip off. Unless you're a huge fan of top down shooters (which i am) DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.
