Wow, playing these old games brings back the memories. Star Strike and Astroblaster were / are my two most favorite. I know it’s a bit ironic playing games from an old obsolete system on a newer but also obsolete console, but I’ve been in a bit of a nostalgic phase lately. I like how this collection is divided up in a virtual pizzeria. I could do without the music playing on the jukebox, it was fun for awhile but soon got annoying. The short documentary about the history of the Mattel Intellivision and the rise and fall of the system was interesting.The games are pretty much what I remember, and they’ve done a good job adapting the controls on the xBox controller. Either the games are faster, or my reflexes are slower – the higher levels seem more challenging that the originals. I’m happy with my purchase.

When I was a kid, I owned an Intellivision with a bunch of games. Even though most of them weren’t on there, the classics I always played are. This game only works for people that have played these games before, but more so the system with the graphics and game play use of controls.

I was raised on Intellivision. If you were, too, you know which games you want to play. You can also, I presume, look at an Xbox controller and see how there could be difficulties translating the disc-and-keypad controls from Intellivision to the Xbox.If you aren’t very familiar with the Intellivision, you’re not really the retrogaming target audience, and you should probably move on.Assuming you’re still with me, here’s the good news. The games that are in the collection are recreated spot-on perfectly. The controller works exceptionally well given obvious limitations. A right thumbstick-right trigger combination simulates the keypad 1-9 by default. You get used to it, and I certainly can’t think of a better way it could have been done. But in games where it makes more sense to do it another way, it was done another way. A, B, X, and Y fire down, right, left, and up, respectively, in Night Stalker. That is, this package was put together by people who understand the games.And, as far as the games in the package go, basically, all the first party (Mattel and INTV) games are here except the ones that are lost to licensing entanglements. Yes, it means you lose some of the system’s best games. Tron Deadly Discs, Burger Time, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, and Masters of the Universe are not included, and it’s a shame.Further, no matter how much you loved the system, you’ll probably admit that some of the games haven’t really stood the test of time all that well. Two.

My cell phone has better games.Don’t spend too much for this one,if you have a free rental coupon you might want to use that to rent this game.They had better games than this back on Commodore PET64.

This isn’t really fair, since I haven’t actually purchased this product (I don’t own a PS2). But I have played it extensively on a friend’s machine.Those of us who owned an Intellivision rather than an Atari felt like members of an enlightened cult. Atari was Duran Duran; we were the Violent Femmes. In other words, we knew our games had the better action, the better controller, the better graphics, certainly the better commercials – but we somehow felt ignored by the general game-playing public. This was fine with us. We wanted Intellivision to be our dirty little secret.Which brings me to this pack. The makers did an excellent job of translating Intellivision’s still-unique game controller, and in their ways, the games are still fun and even challenging. I get chills, even now, when I see the little Running Man guy do his super-smooth slow-motion sprint. "Snafu" is and always has been a so-simple-it’s-brilliant little gem, "Utopia" is great two-player fun (never before or since has super-slow game play built so much tension), "Astrosmash" rocks (pun intended), "Sea Battle" is tricky and creative, and, well, there you go. The rest are a decidedly mixed-bag. You’ll squeal with joy when you fire each one up, you’ll say "Oh, I remember this one, it’s GREAT," and you’ll get bored before 10 minutes are up.But I think most buyers purchasing this set aren’t looking for great games. They’re looking to recapture that magnificent antici.
