Anyone tried those cheap $5-10 CD-ROM game collections that have a whole bunch of different games on them?

Question

I found them at Best Buy/Circuit City for pretty cheap and they say they have the full version of over 100 arcade games. Has anybody tried those and are they any good? I wanted to get one for my boyfriend's nephews but I don't want it to either not work or be stupid.

Update:

BTW- it would be for a ten year old boy and possibly his six year old brother, although the little one, not so much.

for the most part, they are pretty much crap.  Every now and then you may trip on one that seems interesting, but for the most part, i would not waste the money. perhaps a Coke and some Skittles would be a better investment.

You get what you pay for.  Low quality, buggy junk.  Just get him a gift card.
