Os melhores jogos da Blizzard foram criados nos anos 90, e essa coletânea faz jus a fama. Joguei muito a série "the lost vikings" que é a cereja do bolo dessa coleção. Ficarei muito feliz se a G.O.G colocá-la em seu portifólio.
Why the Blizzard Arcade Collection Is the Best Gaming Classics Collection Ever The Blizzard Arcade Collection is a masterclass in how to respectfully preserve and celebrate gaming history. This collection brings together three of Blizzard’s earliest and most iconic titles—The Lost Vikings, Rock N’ Roll Racing, and Blackthorne—in a package that not only honors their legacy but enhances them for modern audiences. What sets the Blizzard Arcade Collection apart from other retro compilations is the love and care put into every aspect. It doesn’t just dump ROMs into an emulator. Instead, Blizzard included multiple versions of each game: the original console versions, updated “Definitive Editions” with modern features like widescreen support, remastered audio, gameplay enhancements, and even quality-of-life updates. Rock N’ Roll Racing, for instance, now includes 4-player local multiplayer and full licensed music with commentary, making it feel like a new experience while still keeping its old-school soul. Another reason this collection stands out is its presentation. Blizzard added museum-style extras: developer interviews, concept art, behind-the-scenes materials, and lore that give fans a deeper understanding of the company’s roots. It’s not just a game bundle—it’s a time capsule. In an era where many collections feel like cash grabs or lazy ports, the Blizzard Arcade Collection shows how to do it right. It respects the past, celebrates the creativity of early game development, and makes classics feel fresh again. It’s an essential piece of gaming history and one of the best retro collections ever released. GOG would be the perfect home for it—preserving it DRM-free for collectors and newcomers alike.
