What Customers Say About Atari Classics Evolved:

Not good. The Midway one is the only classic arcade emulation on the PSP that is worth a damn so far.
This has a nice concept but playing it on the PSP is very difficult, the faster games especially are very hard to control. Still has fun games just harder to control.
I bought this game to play the 2600 classics. To make matters worse, they make you play them in ridiculous amounts to unlock the 2600 classic games, which is probably why everyone is buying this to begin with. That's really the only reason I bought it. I think their reskins of the classics are bad. I had to go through the dicey process of downloading the one and only save game where someone had gone through the nightmare of unlocking the 2600 games. So if you buy this, go to GameFaqs and download the save game where someone did all the tedious work for you.
For example, Centipede, Millipede, Breakout and Tempest are all great games but to play them on my PSP you have to turn the PSP 90 degrees and play from one end. I was excited to get this game. From a screen standpoint it makes sense to use the longest part of the PSP screen to mimic the original games. I loved playing these games at the pizza parlor or bus station many years ago. But, what I found out is while the games are the same the feel isn't. But, what I found is that it's very difficult to play fast games like this from one end of the PSP; the controls are too cumbersome and it's difficult to balance the weight of the PSP. Lunar Lander, Battlezone and Asteroids are still fun.
For those people who grew up with the classic Atari games of Asteroids and Centipede, this one has it all and then some. There are also updated versions of the classic games, but I personally think nothing really beats the simple game versions of those days gone by.
