Midway Arcade Treasures 3 (Game Cube, 2005)

Did you love playing racing games in the arcade ten years ago? Well, don't expect the exact same experience from this compilation unless you have a "car cabinet" to fit your system inside. You also are going to need a steering wheel controller if you want to get any real enjoyment out of this. It just isn't the same with a regular controller in your hands, though this game does feature some of my favorite racers from back in the day.

Don't expect great control because these games were meant to be played in the arcade with a steering wheel or handlebars. But, if you can get it for cheap, this can be both a nice trip down memory lane and a nice game for younger players.

Pros: Mostly arcade-perfect emulation, especially if you have a steering wheel instead of the regular controller. Ranges from simple to complex play depending on different levels and games. Something for everyone who is a racing fan, especially those of us who played these games avidly in the arcades. Can be found for $10 or less, including shipping.

Cons: Very limited number of different games (only 8!) when compared to Midway Arcade Treasures 1 (24 games) and 2 (20 games). No non-racing games - if you don't like racing, this isn't for you. Less bonus content than the other Arcade Treasures collections. Less replay value as there are so few games, and you probably won't like several, even if you are a racing fan.
