I can hear you now... "Another Namco Museum title?"  Before you write this one off, consider what's included.

Collections are tricky to review; the primary gamers willing to consume such a diverse package are comprised of two distinct groups.  On one hand you have the crowd whose interest may be sourced in nostalgia.  Their fond memories of cherished titles from decades past may outweigh potential shortcomings in the modern evaluation of gameplay.  To this particular crowd, some of these games are classics and shouldn't be scrutinized or even compared with the deluge of modern software.  There was a time and a place for these titles, and a collection stands as a convenient way to reminisces with, rather than experience, the software.  Their enjoyment should be considered with their context – which is difficult if you never spent time with any of these titles over a decade ago.
