A Rare and unique product for the Playstation | |
| I have the Sony Playstation, but have invested in only a handful of games, primarily because most of them are non-descript racing, fighting, or adventure oriented. As a long-time video game addict, I find PAC-MAN WORLD to be one of the greatest games to come along for this system since Namco released the original arcade museum collections several years ago. While the graphics are 3-d, they're not as vomit-inducing as most games of its kind. Rather, it's a happy medium of arcade-like gaming and time draining adventure. The design is remarkably cartoony, the sound effects are both highly original and true to the vintage Pac-Man, and the levels of difficulty range from thankfully easy to challengingly difficult, which makes it recommendable for young and old alike. All in all, PAC-MAN WORLD captures the spirit of vintage gaming, but adds the necessary modern platform elements. The closest comparison would be to N64's BANJO-KAZOOIE, a similarly cute and refreshingly original take on a predominently juvenile genre. | |
It just keeps getting better | |
| A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away (well Japan Actually) there emerged a video game featuring a charector who was little more than a yellow mouth who's sole purpose in life was to travel around a maze gathering fruit, eating dots and avoiding ghosts, that yellow mouth was named Pac Man and he was the very first video game superstar (believe it or not! )he had his own bubble gum cards, his own brand of scratch card and even his own cartoon show in short he had it all, but then times changed and he became just a fond memory somebody you think about and smile. But now 20 years after his conception, he is back in three dimensions, out of the maze and with legs! Pac Man world is a game that has something for everyone, it's a platform game, its a travel around 3D mazes game and with the inclussion of the original arcade classic it's retro fun for all the family. There is a story attached to the platform game, which does'nt make much sense and is irrelevent to your enjoyment of the game, all you need to know is that it is FUN, ADDICTIVE and the best playstation game I have bought in a long time. You should buy this game, you must buy this game in fact buy two copies in case one wears out! This is fun, this is addictive, this game has long lasting appeal, buy it, you won't be sorry! | |
