Compilation Game Recommendations

[M4R14NO94]

I DO want the Namco Museum titles. How is the Metal Slug Anthology better on the PS2 btw? Better controls? I hear the Wii version enforces motion control in some arbitrary manner... ¬_¬

Yes. You have to move the Wiimote up to throw grenades. The other option is to use the GameCube controller, because SNK for some reason forgot Classic Controller support. And, according to Hardcore Gaming 101, the Japanese version got CC support

Atari Anthology on the PS2 is an OK collection. Lots of games on there, with an awesome amount of extras...

Pinball is awesome.

As much as it pains me to mention anything good, and the name Square in the same sentence, once upon a time, they actually made good games, including a few very respectable compilations.

The best one, and a must have compilation that they made, was FF Anthology, it comes with an almost perfect/direct remake of FF 6(with just cleaned up graphics, and some bonus scenes if you beat the game, and replay it or something), and it comes with an almost perfect/direct remake of the never before released FF V(easily one of the best FF game ever made, within the top 3 np).


Also FF Origins was pretty good as well, it has the remake of FF 1, and the Japanese FF 2).

The other PS1 compilations weren't game breaking bad, but needless to say the originals were much better, so I wouldn't suggest it, unless you just want to collect every compilation ever made.

Note: Both are PS1 games, but since PS2 is BC with PS1 games, you'll be fine.

I went P2 for the majority of my Comp related games. The Data East Collection I have on Wii, and the SNK Vol. 1 is better on Wii because apparently the P2 version has slowdown.

Get Activision Anthology for the PS2. Also, get any of the Midway collections. They are on several systems.

If you like 2600 games, def get Activison Anthology. Very enjoyable.

Why don't you want Midway Arcade Treasures 1 (XBox)?

Also, don't forget...

Metal Slug Anthology (PS2)
Art of Fighting Anthology (PS2)
King of Fighters Collection: The Orochi Saga (PS2)
Vampire: Darkstalkers Collection (Import PS2)

I was gonna say the same thing, I think Midway Arcade Treasures 1 is the best of them all.
There's also Midway Arcade Treasures Extended Play for PSP for anyone who's interested.

I never really noticed the slowdown too much in the ps2 version of snk vol 1.
