Opening Snide Remarks: 6 arcade classics on one CD.  This game has to be a 
must buy.  Doesn't it? 

****************************************************************************

Gameplay Descripion: Namco Museum Volume 3 is a CD with 6 arcade classics on 
it.  This disc contains Ms. Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Galaxian, Pole Position II, 
Phozon, and The Tower of Druaga.  These games play just like their arcade 
counterparts.  The only problem with these games is the fact that these games
just aren't as much fun to play today.  I always liked Ms. Pac-Man, Dig Dug,
and Galaxian, but I found that I really like Phozon which I had never played
before.  I have played it more than any of the others, but this game is a 
must-buy because of the perfect versions of Ms. Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Galaxian,
and Pole Position II.     
Liked: 6 arcade classics on one CD. 
Hated: They're not as much fun as they used to be.

Graphics Description: Okay, the graphics of Namco Museum Volume 3 will be 
described in 2 parts.  The Museum section has some good graphics.  They 
basically look like a first-gen PSX game.  The Ms. Pac-Man and The Tower of 
Druaga rooms are awesome.  Inside each game's room there are all kinds of 
exhibits to check out.  They are mainly little momentos of the different 
games.  The graphics of the actual games are arcade perfect.  The graphics
aren't pretty, but they're exactly what they were in each game's original 
incarnation.    
Liked: Ms. Pac-Man and The Tower of Druaga rooms.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Sound/Music Description: The music of Namco Museum Volume 3 is excellent.  
The music of the actual games are arcade perfect.  The music in the museum 
is awesome.  Each room has great music with each room having different styles
of music. 
Liked: Great music.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Play Control/Game Design: Namco Museum Volume 3 has perfect controls.  The
controls are easy to learn and are very responsive.  The game design is 
great.  I still prefer the presentation of Midway and Atari's Arcade's 
Greatest Hits.
Liked: Perfect controls.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Improve: Nothing.  This disc is great.

RIYL: Namco Museum series, Midway and Atari's Arcade's Greatest Hits.

****************************************************************************

Final Words: If you ever liked any of the games on this disc, then that's the
only reason you need to buy this game.  This game has arcade perfect versions
of 6 arcade classics.  This game is a must buy!
