Midway Arcade Treasures: Extended Play is a video game compilation of 21 classic Midway, Atari and Williams arcade games released in 2005 for the PlayStation Portable. Midway Arcade Treasures: Extended Play was re-released for the PlayStation Store on June 28, 2010 by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment due to Midway's bankruptcy, also meaning that Warner Bros. owns rights to most of the Midway, Atari and Williams arcade library after the purchase of some assets of Midway Games.
Midway Arcade Treasures: Extended Play was given mixed reviews from game critics. On the review aggregator Game Rankings, the game has an average score of 62%, based on 35 reviews. On Metacritic, the game has an average score of 63 out of 100, based on 24 reviews. The collection has been criticized for lacking bonus content, for its "bare-bones" presentation, lengthy load times, and for making some games look "stretched", (like Paperboy), or "shrunk", (like Sinistar). Reviewers noted the omission of multiplayer and GameSpot criticized some major visual and sound emulation glitches.
