Taito Milestones 2

"Taito Milestones 2 presents a good offering of 10 retro arcade games with some truly fun hidden gems and excellent shoot &s;em ups along with a couple of the dumbest fighting games that I&s;ve ever played."

"Taito Milestones 2 doesn’t do a lot to justify its existence. I usually don’t overly factor price into my thoughts on a game, but when you can purchase almost every game in the collection separately with the exact same features, …"

"Taito Milestones 2 is an interesting collection that doesn’t have the best of presentations. On the one hand, there’s some true gems in here like The New Zealand Story, Darius 2, and Kiki Kai-Kai, as well as some unknowns like …"

"Relive some arcade classics in your own lounge room with Taito Milestones 2!"

"The biggest drawback is the price tag of fourteen euros. Ten games seems quite a lot at first, but they are still arcade games. These are games that are therefore often very difficult or very short. For this price you …"

"Still, I found that New Zealand Story, Liquid Kids, Darius II and Legend of Kage are easily the best of this batch, and Taito Milestones 2 is well worth picking up for newcomer scorechasers and veterans alike."

"As it is, though, you’re likely not to find a better or more efficient way of playing these outside of emulation, and the fact that it’s on Switch only makes it more worth your while. If you don’t mind the …"

"TAITO Milestones 2 presents us with ten other classic Taito titles released for Arcade in the 80s and early 90s. The selection is debatable although not bad - that Dinorex... -, and the extras in the compilation are conspicuous by …"

"Taito Milestones 2 is a second helping of arcade goodness that comes highly recommended for any fan of retro gaming. Much like the first collection, what stands out most about this is the games are more unusual and different than …"

"Should you possess a particular affinity for Taito&s;s arcade past and the shooters, platformers, and fighters from their heyday, then a second Milestones collection is probably right up your alley. The online leaderboards offered by the Arcade Archives versions here …"

"Calling this collection of arcade titles a bit odd and eclectic would be an understatement"

"This collection doesn’t really have a game that misses. While not all household names, I guarantee if you enjoy classic titles there is plenty here to enjoy. I love revisiting stuff like Kiki Kaikai and Liquid Kids and checking out …"

"The arcade games that comprise Taito Milestones 2 may not be well-known, but that doesn&s;t mean there&s;s no fun to be found here. The collection focuses heavily on shoot &s;em ups and platformers, and the best titles come from those …"

"So with all of that, this score is not reflective of the quality of the games (overall). I’ll never get sick of NewZealand Story. Most of the other titles are interesting as a curio, too. The quality of the ports …"

"While this isn’t going to become a regular rotation for me, I sincerely admire and appreciate what Taito Milestones 2 is doing. Taito has such a wonderful history of creations and I don’t have access to most of them, nor …"

"Overall, Taito Milestones 2 follows nicely on from the first release. It includes even more excellent games and does a nice job of encapsulating Taito’s long and influential gaming history into one neat little package."

"Dino Rex and Solitary Fighter aren&s;t exactly high points, and considering they&s;re two of three exclusives, much of the appeal of this collection depends on how many titles you may already own, and how much you want Darius II. That …"

"A mixed bag but worth buying just for Metal Black, New Zealand Story and Liquids Kids. It&s;s a shame the rest of the compilation has been padded out with obscure titles such as Dinorex and Ben Bero Beh when TAITO …"

"Otherwise, I’m pretty happy with Taito Milestones 2. It has a few games I’m already well acquainted with, alongside a few other obscure titles that I might not have tried on their own. It gives me the comfort of familiarity …"
