- WILD! WILD! Arcade games!!! I don't know why there are soo many complains about this videogame collection, this is FREAKING COOL to me! * I mean... Shock Troopers and Sengoku ARE THE COOLEST GAMES in the collection! (WILD, INSANE, POWERFUL and WITH A VENGANCE!!!) * Samurai Showdown, King of Fighters 94 and King of the Monsters are INSANEST WILDEST FIGHTING GAMES!!! * Metal Slug, Burning Fight and Magician Lord THEY PACKED PUNCH AND POWER! * Neo Turf Masters, Next Glory and BaseballStars are sport games but SOOO FUNNY!!! The rest is not THAT good, but the games I mentioned make this collection worth buying it! Maybe the reason that many people are complaining is about the graphics. Well, the graphics are not in the best quality but it looks CLEAR enought to play. Maybe people hoped that the graphics would be remeastered, but what the heck! It looks VERY CLEAR to me! Adios. Rating: - 16 Neo Geo games for $15- I got it no hesitation!This collection has 16 of some of the best Neo-Geo games ever released. At first I was in awe, but after putting them in and playing, it hit me like a ton of bricks that these aren't the premiere games that they once were. The graphics have aged and the some of the games are simply beautiful "NES" games. I mean, the graphics are better than NES games but the mechanics and strategies are basically the same. Wizard Lord, Burning Fight, etc. You'll be over them in 30 minutes tops. Though they are still a great collection to have. The only thing was that after I unlocked "World Heroes" my favorite game on the collection (more for nostalgic reasons than anything) the memory card said it was corrupted and then I had to try to unlock the game again. I believe turning off the game while in session might do this to the memory card similar to how it did for the Sega Genesis collection. Rating: - Good CollectionGreat collection of Neo Geo games, and great price considering some of these games went for 200 dollars when they were originally released. I'm glad they put more than just the usual fighters on here, because games like Magician Lord and Last Resort deserve to be played. The loading times when switching between games are longer than some other games for the PS2, but they're not unbearabe. I can't wait for volume 2, and I hope it's the same mix of genres. Rating: - OlderI would love to see further volumes of the SNK(Neo Geo) collection. Hopefully they will iron out some of the bugs for the second collection. As for this first collection it is a nice assortment of games that look just like the original classics. The only problem is a slowdown with some of them. I'm not sure why it happens, these are not big process hungry games. The collection itself is on the small side when compared to some of the other collections out there. The price is good and if they price a second volume the same I will probably jump at that as well. Rating: - A Good Value But May Not Meet All ExpectationsWell considering if you tried to buy all 16 games here in 1995 you would have to spend over $[...]! That makes this compliation golden for any fan of SNK or Neo Geo owners. Finally Magician Lord, Samurai Showdown, and King of Monsters are at your finger tips. But unfortunetly, this compliation is far from perfect. - The first thing I noticed is the sound quality. Neo Geo games had great sound especially noticible in the Arcades, but the sounds on this compliation are low and muffled sounding especially with Samurai Showdown. - The second thing are the graphics, now maybe its been too long and I just forgot, but I seem to recall Neo Geo games having some fairly sharp looking graphics. But the graphics for the PS2 version look terrible with jaggies galour. I swear they were sharper on the Neo Geo. Luckly the PSP version of this compliation looks much better and lot closer to what I remember. I want to mention that I'm using my PS3 (fw 2.30) to play the PS2 version. I tried with and without scaling, but it made no difference. Most game also have alot of slowdown which is odd, because the Neo Geo didn't. Is the Neo Geo more powerful than the PS2? -The third thing is the bonus content. The bonus content are things that the game should have given you in the begining, such as character moves. Thats a wierd choice for bonus content since its pretty standard stuff elsewhere. Now aside all that the reason why I gave this game 3 stars is mainly because, one of my favorite games that I was really looking forward to playing agian is not availible right out of the box! I'm talking about World Heroes! Some idiot at SNK though it would be cool or funny to make this game part of the unlockable bonus conent! That is just stupid! In order to unlock World Heroes, you have to earn 10 achievments found through out various other games. Arg! They should not be advertising this game with World Heroes the way that they are. -- Bottom line is that you should definely get this game just becuase it is sort of a holy grail for 1990s gamer. Nearly $[...] worth of content on one disc for $[...]! And most of these games are classics! Metal Slug and King of Monsters are worth the purchase alone. But just be warned that this compliation is flawed!
