Arcade's Greatest Hits: The Atari Collection 2 is a 1998 compilation of six arcade games: Gauntlet, Marble Madness, Paperboy, RoadBlasters, Crystal Castles, and Millipede. All of the games except for Crystal Castles and Millipede were from Atari Games, who by then were acquired by the game's publisher Midway. The compilation contains artwork and info on each game, and all games are presented in their original format.

Reception

The compilation was well received, with the Official UK PlayStation Magazine saying that it was "the best retro collection to date", but that most of the games failed to hold their own in the 1990s. They noted that Marble Madness played better with a joypad than with the original trackball, and that Paperboy was the highlight.
