GameFocus - I got into classic arcade games when I was growing up because I had Namco Museum for the PlayStation 1. I love these games because of their simplicity. Simple graphics and simple gameplay from simple times. Fast forward to 2012 where we can download these classics to our phones, consoles, and just about any electronic device we own, anywhere, and at anytime. Namco’s answer to this is Namco Arcade, a free-to-download app, making it already good to go, but there are a few downers to the game.
Ridge Racer has been around for almost 20 years, whilst the latest instalment leaves much to be desired, join Junior Smart as he takes a look back at the highs and lows of perhaps one of the most incredible race franchises of all time.
Free certainly sounds tempting, but there is a major catch. More on that in a bit.
Namco Arcade features four classic arcade titles: Xevious, The Tower of Druaga, Motos and Phozon, and more are expected in future updates. Each game features an online leaderboard that resets each week to compare scores with other players.
This iPad collection still needs some work. And good games, for that matter.
