    There’s no doubt it that Forza Motorsport 2 delivers the goods in a sweet package. Yes, it has flaws, but nothing that will turn you off because it has something for everyone. This game was designed for people who love cars and want a forum to associate with others who also love cars. It may not have the flair of the Sony Grand Turismo games in terms of style, but makes up for it in other areas, such as total customization, to balance things out. Read more

    Although you will probably only play a small handful of these games (and most of those will have the initials “SF” in their title), Capcom Classics is an excellent collection of classic arcade games that will make us old fogies all warm and fuzzy with nostalgia, and give young whippersnappers a chance to experience the same gaming joy we grew up with.

    Solid compilations with three or more games in one package is nothing new, but with the current generation of consoles coming to an end, game companies are using this time to make games for the next generation of systems instead of working on a new game for the current one. They've still gotta get them greenbacks though, so they are blowing the dust off their old catalog of games, bundling a ton of them up and selling them for cheap. Read more

    Capcom Classics Collection takes players back to the days of break dancing and waiting in endless arcade lines to see how long they can make their coveted quarter last. Spanning over 10 years of Capcom history, this anthology contains hundreds of hours of gameplay with treasured favorites including the WWII-style plane assault of '1942', defeating Metro City street gangs in 'Final Fight', rescuing Princess Guinevere against zombies and demons in "Ghosts 'n Goblins', the...

    is generally an arcade perfect translation of some of the best coin-eating machines and 16 bit games the world has ever known. What you saw back in the day is what you will see here. No improvements have been made, but this helps keep the nostalgic essence about the games, and there is no slowdown either. Read more

    This is a compilation of Capcom arcade games. I was pretty disappointed when I discovered it's not the home games like I grew up with this. The arcade games just lack real depth that the home versions had. This compilation might contain $5,000 worth of quarter eating fun, but not even the online leader boards will keep you coming back for more than nostalgia. A lot of the games feel very stale and clunky by today's standards. Read more

    toriyama don't feel down , cause.... EA sucks! , and another thing EA sucks ! oh yeah , and one more thing EA..... you suck!!! EA used to not suck at one time when they were not as a big EA company , and made some quality games , but all that has changed my fello friends , cause EA has enough money to not worry about getting aroung glitches, and rushing into production to put out onto shelfs to not to care if the game is even quality for sales EA .. you suck!!

    I bought these titles Capcom and Taito for two games Rastan Saga and Final Fight- both classics - however there are plenty of other diamonds amongst the rough- Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands and Volfeld(like Qix) that are worth the price alone- the mad thing about these games is you cant complete them - they are just too hard...A great trip down memory lane. Well worth it-if you used to go into Dayvilles in Birmingham ! Just need Rtype and Vulcan Venture now! Read more
