SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I'm hoping some of you out there own this game for the PS2. I am thinking of getting it but have one question that I can seem to find in reviews on Amazon and other places I have looked around. My question is, is the a high score board for the games? I mean, is there a place to enter initials or something for high scores. If you have the Namco Museum 50th Anniversary, you know what I mean about the game keeping track of your high scores with the memory card. Any info? Thanks a lot!

jlh2600 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I have it for pc and gba. Thinking about ps2 just because it's so cheap. Don't know about high scores on ps2, but make sure it has demon attack and atlantis (sadly gba does not). I almost bought it from someone on ebay, and they looked on the box and said it did not list either of these games- but people around here have ps2 AA's, and their's DO have the imagic titles. Maybe some have it some don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 (edited) I went to the atari website and it lists all of the games that are on the Atari Anthology for the PS2 and XBOX but still, I can't find anywhere that lists if high scores are savable and if so, is their a list of scores where you can input your initials? My brother and I like to compete and it would be nice to know before I make the purchase. At any rate, if anyone knows, please let me know. As for the games that are included on it: Classic arcade hits: Asteroids® Asteroids® Deluxe Battlezone® Atari Black Widow™ Centipede® Crystal Castles® Gravitar® Liberator™ Lunar Lander™ Major Havoc™ Millipede® Missile Command® Pong® Atari Red Baron™ Super Breakout® Atari Space Duel™ Tempest™ Warlords® Atari® 2600™ titles: Atari 3D Tic-Tac-Toe Atari Adventure™ Atari Air•Sea Battle™ Asteroids® Atari Video Cube™ Backgammon Battlezone® Blackjack™ Bowling Breakout® Canyon Bomber™ Casino Centipede® Circus Atari™ Combat™ Crystal Castles® Demons to Diamonds® Desert Falcon™ Dodge ’Em™ Double Dunk™ Flag Capture™ Football Fun With Numbers™ Golf Gravitar® Hangman Haunted House™ Home Run™ Human Cannonball™ Atari Math Gran Prix™ Atari Maze Craze™ Millipede® Miniature Golf Missile Command® Atari Night Driver™ Off the Wall™ Atari Outlaw™ Quadrun™ Radar Lock™ Realsports® Baseball Realsports® Football Realsports® Tennis Realsports® Volleyball Sky Diver™ Slot Machine Atari Slot Racers™ Atari Space War™ Sprintmaster™ Star Raiders™ Atari Star Ship™ Steeplechase™ Stellar Track™ Atari Street Racer™ Atari Submarine Commander™ Atari Super Baseball™ Super Breakout® Atari Super Football Atari Surround™ Swordquest: Earthworld™ Swordquest: Fireworld™ Swordquest: Waterworld™ Video Checkers Video Chess Video Olympics Video Pinball Yars’ Revenge Edited June 10, 2006 by SpendTooMuchOnAtari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlh2600 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 See no demon attack listed there- but more than one person who has that game here say it's on there: "...but I know for a 100% fact that game is in the PS2 Anthology. I have it running at my desk right now and played it just yesterday." gamerj One other member (skunkworx) verified this by his copy. http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=88659 I'd ask onc of those guys, since they have the ps2 version.

Video Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 It doesn't save high scores or anything. I don't think you can even get patches or anything for it, I matched all three requirements for Pitfall 2 and didn't unlock any. Anybody know what is unlockable on this game? And yeah, Deamon Attack and Atlantis is on my copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockman_x_2002 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 The Imagic titles Atlantis, Demon Attack, and Moonsweeper are all on Activision Anthology, not to be confused with Atari Anthology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 The arcade games that featured high score list in their original form still do and the scores are saved. But the 2600 titles don't. And like was just said, Activision Anthology and Atari Anthology are two different games. No Activision titles on Atari Anthology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlh2600 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 (edited) Yeah the confusion comes from the fact that they don't list the imagic titles on the box, and the fac tthat neither demon attack nor atlantis are on gba activsion anthology.

Atariboy Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I'm not aware of any confusion, the list on the back of the DVD case for the PS2 Activision Anthology isn't a complete list and even says "and more!" at the end of the partial listing of titles.

Student Driver Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Classic arcade hits: Atari Black Widow™ Atari Red Baron™ Atari Space Duel™ Atari® 2600™ titles: Atari 3D Tic-Tac-Toe Atari Adventure™ Atari Air•Sea Battle™ Atari Math Gran Prix™ Atari Maze Craze™ Atari Night Driver™ Atari Outlaw™ Atari Slot Racers™ Atari Space War™ Atari Star Ship™ Atari Street Racer™ Atari Submarine Commander™ Atari Super Baseball™ Atari Super Football Atari Surround™ I wonder why they randomly appended "Atari" to these game titles...

Atariboy Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 (edited) Not really, but I remember your old post where it's been explained to you before what games were on the PS2 Activision Anthology, such as the inclusion of Demon Attack. Haven't seen any other confusion about it. The manual has a complete game list, reviews at popular sites such as IGN have got it right, and the back of the DVD case clearly states that there are more titles in it. There just wasn't room on the case for a complete list. Too many titles, so they just provided a summary.

Yeah, and if you had read this whole thread lol, I had already linked that thread and their answers for the original poster. And now you are aware of that and this thread. So yeah, really.

Agent X Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 As Atariboy pointed out Atari Anthology (not to be confused with Activision Anthology) does save high score on most of the arcade games that have a high score feature. Pong doesn't have a high score feature, and Battlezone high scores aren't saved due to a bug, but all of the other arcade games save the high scores.

SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 Thanks everyone! I am going to pick this (ATARI Anthology) up, it's always a good feeling to beat an existing high score. I'm glad to hear that it does have a save feature. Anyone know about Taito Legends? Does it save high scores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari70s Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 im sorry i could not ever get into atari anthology. i bought it i played it and soon as it booted up im like this is it? it seemed so lame to me. ( i think i got spoiled with activision anthology. who put alot of games together in a way where it was fun . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Yes, Taito Legends saves the high scores on the arcade titles. I think every arcade collection that features arcade titles that had a high score table back when they were originally released do have the feature on the PS2/Xbox/GC. Not sure how you thought Activision Anthology was so much better, though I do prefer the interface and I liked the inclusion of Activision television commercials. THe emulation of 2600 titles seemed superior to me on Atari Anthology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tan Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 the soundtrack that was put together on Activision Anthology was well made and suited the atmosphere as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
