Classic Game of the Month: June 2012

*This month's Classic Game of the Month is a little unusual this month for two reasons. One reason is that it contains purely 3rd party content. Second, instead of being one game, it is an entire collection of retro games in one package. Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you "Namco Museum 64"!*

Many editions and collections of Namco arcade games exists on various titles such as on the Nintendo Game Cube, Gameboy Advace and other systems. The Nintendo 64 version of Namco Museum was the first Nintendo released collection and it was released on November 29, 1999 and contains 6 classic Namco developed arcade games:

*Pac-Man (1980)

*Ms. Pac-Man (1981)

*Galaga (1981)

*Galaxian (1979)

*Pole-Position (1982)

*Dig Dug (1982)

Each of these games were, in their own time, very popular and revolutionary and because of that, they are all featured on this one cartridge. The games appear as they would in their original arcade machines with no modifications to graphics or gameplay whatsoever. The game also uses the N64 memory card to save high scores in each game. Games can be played in 2-player alternating mode.

Because of each game's powerful impact on the gaming industry, here at OWNAGE, we've decided to dedicate this month to each game. So rather than bore you to death with a 12 page research paper, each week, I plan to release in-depth reviews for each one with all 6 games sharing the spot light this month! 

With 6 games to take care of, look for about 2 game reviews each week.
