 Nostalgic January 3, 2009
Well I bought this game because Raystorm, a rare PSX find is included in the game. The only complaint I have about this game is that they're all arcade versions and it does take quite a while to load each game. I still haven't tried all the games yet, but I will eventually. It's a shame that they didn't include Bubble Bobble though.
 Brilliant! September 21, 2008

This collection of games is truly magnificient. Every game looks wonderful and faithfully perfected from the arcade! Great collection of brawlers, platformers, shooters, and puzzles.
Many games are obvious rip offs from final fight, ghost and goblins, etc... Capcom games. However Taito does a good job making new flavors.
Overall a MUST BUY TREASURE for all classic gamers and people who like good games! One of the BEST game for PS2!!
Insert Coin May 28, 2008
When gauging the authenticity of a collection of classic arcade games, every little detail counts. Many other collections have chosen to eliminate the "insert coin" graphics that is so familiar for all arcade dwellers. Given everything else being done right, that last touch makes the experience complete.
Taito's LEGENDS 2 is one of my top favorite arcade collections. Unlike SNK's fighter-heavy compilation, Taito's is loaded with classic Shoot-em-ups. From Darius Gaiden to Ray Storm to G Darius. Even a couple of Space Invader updates - Space Invaders DX and Space Invaders 95.
Taito's second collection is also the most diversified when it comes to featuring games from many different eras. The earliest game, Lunar Rescue, is from 1979. The most recent game, G Darius, which features 3-D graphics, is from 1997. Legends 2 also features a huge assortment of games, 39 in all.
Aside from the shooters, there is also plenty of platform and puzzle games. The graphics and game-play are all arcade-perfect. One of my personal favorites, a game that was never released for any U.S. consoles, is Elevator Action 2(1994).
Plenty of games, a nice variety, arcade-perfect, and Taito. Be sure to pick up Legends 2, a collection that will put you right back into the old-school arcade action.
Classic Fun! January 10, 2008
Do you like classic arcade games?
If so then I advise that you buy this right now.
Even more games than the first Taito Legends and just as equally fun!
This is a great value for so many classic games.
The only downside is the presentation of the games compared to the first collection but that does not hurt the games themselves.
So if you want some old school fun without the history lesson, then I highly recommend this!
There are some great classic gems here including the awsome shooters, Darius Alpha and Darius Gaiden!
