Old School Fun For Everyone

User Rating: 7.5 | Activision Anthology PS2
By Peppi | Review Date:
I grew up in the days when Atari had dominated the video console era. Back then we accepted video games based on playability and fun. Although graphics were important, we didn't make a big deal out of graphics like they do now.

This game compilation is basic and simple and is lure for small children and I hate to say but women who don't normally play video games. I would also think that nostolgic folks like myself would also enjoy this compilation because of the memories some of the games will bring back.

There are some games like Kaboom, you just never get tired of, but unfortunately there are some games like Barnstorming can be a little boring after awhile.

Then there are some games that were fun back in the day that has lost some of its luster, Boxing and Hockey are two of those games.

Overall this is a great change of pace game, but probably not something that would be played often or everyday because of the great games that are out in this era.

But if you want to play something that is different and entertaining definately check out this game.
