Omissions aside, what’s here is largely high-quality content. This collection does give you two Galaga games, so why not include more games from other franchises as well? The same holds true for Splatterhouse 2 and 3 – which haven’t been seen since they were downloadable extras for the 2010 Splatterhouse reboot. Pac-Man and other Pac-Man games aren’t included. The lineup including a blend of regulars and rarities is nice, but one can’t play this and wonder why Ms. Bonus content is also lean, and there aren’t things like virtual museums to explore or concept art to view. In terms of sheer game volume, it’s a bit lean given how many games prior collections have included. The overall variety of the collection is both diverse, and yet limited. Given how gory that game is and how controversial it was in its time, it’s a bit surprising to see it included here. Games like Pac-Man and Dig-Dug have been included in these collections on a regular basis, but the Rolling Thunder games are new – as is the cult hit Splatterhouse. The newest incarnation of the Museum gives you over a dozen games, with Pac-Man, Pac-Man Vs., Galaga, Galaga ’88, Dig-Dug, The Tower of Druaga, Rolling Thunder, Rolling Thunder 2, Sky Kid, Splatterhouse, and Tank Force available. Since 1999, the Namco Museum series has been known for providing high-quality classic compilations at an excellent price point.
