Namco Anthology Vol.02 Japan

Following the successful Namco Museum series of retro compilations for the Playstation, Namco released a pair of discs featuring remakes of console games from their back catalog. The first Namco Anthology included Haou no Tairiku, Babel, Star Luster, and Wrestleball, and this second - and somewhat more rare and expensive - disc includes Valkyrie no Bouken, Pac-Attack, King of Kings, and Namco Classic II. Each game present has received a graphical makeover and had its gameplay modified to some extent, with some overhauled more than others. And while it's arguable that every original remade here could have used some polish, the execution of the tweaks applied turns out to be fairly inconsistent in quality.
