    A great translation, but it just doesn't feel right.

    Accurate translation

    Been there, done that....had a bit of fun....

    By magnus4 | Review Date: Jul 26, 2006 | PS

    The gameplay here, much like the graphics and sound, is, simply put, outdated. The game is a collection of classic video games by Activision, and contains such classics as Pitfall , Tennis, Grand Prix, Crackpots, and Dol... Read Full Review
