By jonfigs | Review Date:
Having been a major fan of all these games growing up I couldn't wait to pick this up for my PSP. I mean, man how cool is Gauntlet and MK3 in your hands on the PSP.

There in lies the inevitable let down. The old school games had either 1 or 2 or both of the following problems. 1=sound issues and 2=framerate issues. Along with that the loading times which is par for the course on some PSP games was horrible.

I had fun playing Gauntlet and joust but games like Arch Rivals leave you wondering why would someone consider this a "classic".

Overall this this game is not worth picking up unless its for 10 bucks off a friend. The EB games in store trade in was 9$ which I took because I wasn't going to play this much.
