"Bat Out of Hell" is the exact opposite of a power ballad. "For Crying Out Loud", however, would be the very definition of one. Same with "Dead Ringer for Love" -- that's just a pop rock song.
There are a lot of great power ballads on there, but several others I wouldn't include in the category. I'd venture to say that a more accurate description of this compilation would be "stadium rock", a genre (also known as "arena rock" or "anthem rock") which would include the power ballads as well as the others.
