1 Star Horrible service from seller
This purchase could not have gone more poorly, as I have yet to receive the title at the time of writing this. The seller apparently sent someone else this game…and has asked me to return some mysterious “other” game that he assumes he sent me. This is not the case, I have waited for well over a month for this title…all the while requesting some sort of coorespondence witht the seller of which he pretty much refuses to respond to all of mine…Other than to say “I am waiting for you to return the wrong game that you received”….of which I have none to return. This is getting downtright rediculous at this point and I need to know what the next steps are.

4 Stars Good game, but gets a little boring.
This is a great pick up and play game, but it’s not really a game you can play for hours at a time. It gets kind of boring after a while of playing, and there are to many load screens. If your into racing games, this might be for you. It’s a great game, but it has some flaws.

4 Stars Great Game
I love the Burnout series of games, so this PSP version was a no-brainer. Great game. Great graphics and a bunch of different things to unlock. If you like the PS2 burnout games you will love this one for the hand held.

Tough to see a few shadowy turns is the only small complaint I have, but after a few runs, the courses are very memorable so its OK. Plus maybe my eyes are quite as sharp as they were. Grab it.

5 Stars A Must-Have Racing Game for the PSP
This game is a must have for anyon who’d like to build a well-rounded PSP game collection but doesn’t yet have a racing game in his or her library. I’m not a huge fan of racing games. I like Burnout Legends because it can be played in short chunks or hours at a time. It has easy to understand goals. The goals are also varied. You can break track records for time, most destroyed cars, types of impact, etc. Best of all, there are lots of different tracks AND race types so, for me anyhoo, boredom hasn’t been an issues.

My only gripe is a small one. In 2008, the graphics look a bit dated and low-fi. I think that sometimes small objects on a fast track can be difficult to see.

4 Stars For the old Atari and C64 freaks
Yeah if you are like me from the old Atari days and owning a C64 then this game will get you 20 years back in no time!

The cool thing is that this CD holds the original versions and some reworked ones that are a little different, but so much fun. I have always been a PacMan fan and own the game on pretty much every platform, so the PSP was a no brainer also.

I would say, if you have some money to spare and looking for an oldie, this one is awesome. The variaty is great.

Cons: I was missing some games like Missile Command and Space Invaders, but then, they are not really Namco ones. I guess, the Atari revived game is more for that…

5 Stars MY NAMCO GAME
I REALLY LIKE THE NAMCO GAME. IT BRINGS ME BACK TO THE OLD SCHOOL DAYS WHEN I HAD THE GAME PN 8-BIT OR COULD PLAY IT ON THE ARCADE. ANY BODY THAT LIKES ACTION GAMES WOULD LOVE THIS ONE!

5 Stars Great classics
Game offers classic versions which are more difficult than I recall. It is also fun because it has re-mixes of my some of my favorite games and they are actually better than the originals!

5 Stars Lots of Fun
I loved the classic versions of the games (particularly Pacman and Galaxian) and the newer versions have cool graphics. Recommended for the generation that grew up in the 80s.

2 Stars Not so Great..
Was disappointed that game had only 3 retro games I really liked; Pac-man, Ms. Pac-man and Galaxian.

Namco could have put more interesting games on the Collection

4 Stars Great way to relieve road rage!!
I own several of the Burnout series games for the PS2. I recently purchased a PSP (Sony should be paying ME at this point!) and got Legends. This is a GREAT version of the Burnout series! The UI is a little klunky, but the game itself is great. Very responsive and the graphics are excellent. It IS kind of hard to see traffic ahead of you, but it’s not much more difficult than playing the PS2 versions! I definately recommend!!

5 Stars A Legendary Ride
Burnout Legends is an incredible racing game; the ultimate in fun, tire-screaming, opponent-wrecking driving. In fact, this title is so enjoyable, so visceral and rewarding, you might never want to play the unforgiving Gran Turismo series again! Even among the other Burnout titles, Legends has no peer. It takes most of its gameplay from Burnout 3: Takedown (PS2 and Xbox), which is widely considered to be the best of the series (superior to Dominator, Revenge, and even the recent Paradise City). Even years after its original release, this is still the most fun you can have in a racing game… and it will take you an incredibly long time to unlock everything!

5 Stars Truly Legendary
Burnout Legends is an excellent game for the PSP. The graphics are perfect for a system this size, with no slow-downs or glitches in frame rate. The game has many different modes, from the standard single race to a special “collision” mode where the object is to wreak as much havoc with your car as possible. This game has great replay value as well, due to the many cars and maps you are able to unlock as you play. The music selection works great with the intense racing action, and the car crashes can be spectacular. This game also has a multiplayer mode, but as I haven’t tried it, I have no comment. I most definitely recommend this game to all PSP users. I hope this review was helpful.
