It's Pac-Man...it's about that high score, not achievements!

I know, but I like it when score-based games have difficult achievements to aim for (1CCs, high scores, no-miss, etc). Gives extra incentive to level up your skillz.

Pac-Man CE was an incredible game, so it's impressive - to say the least - how they've been able to make great improvements on that. The ghost trains, bombs and near death slow mo make this an absolute must buy. And then there's all the extra stages... Game's unbelievable.

It isn't the same game, though.  ???

Also you can get all the cheevs in 30 minutes.

This game is fuckmazing. got 1.2 million or so on the regular 5 minute mode on second try, got a mess of cheevs. It does not play much like the old game.

Play on Expert if you don't want it to take forever to speed up.

The menus are still a mess thoguh, you pick a gametype and then you pick from like 20 different things with arbitrary names.

Got tired of waiting for MS to send me my 800 pt rebate, so I went and bought a 1600 pt card for this. Game's soooo good. Played score attack a few times and got up to 1.3mil. Guy on my friend list has 1.8 million, so I guess I'll aim to beat that.

XBLA is on fire this year.

I'm 42nd in the world on the 5 minute Championship II board.  :rock

Nevermind. Just watched a few vids. Looks pretty boring.

Post by: iconoclast on November 20, 2010, 08:00:13 PM
played some more and got up to 1.5mil. game's great, but it's very memorization heavy. but then again i guess that's the case with every pac-man so it's to be expected. should be able to bump my score to the 1.8mil range with some more practice.

Game is pretty awesome.

Post by: iconoclast on November 21, 2010, 05:14:31 AM
Noooooo, just got 1.77mil and completely fucked up at the end. Would have definitely gotten over 1.8. :'(

Got 2.8mil in the 10 minute mode as well. Seems like a decent score since I didn't know the additional patterns.

Game's amazing though. 10/10 A+++++++ will play again

I went back to the first CE yesterday, and that game is alot harder than I remember and/or I've lost alot of my skills.  Bullet time has made me soft.  :'(
Title: Re: Pac-Man Championship Edition: DX
Post by: iconoclast on November 21, 2010, 03:08:20 PM
Yay, just got 1.892 million. Ranked 44th now. :D I think I'll settle with that score for now.

I think this game is basically the Geometry Wars 2 to Pac Man CE's Geometry Wars.

But yeah, it should be easier to switch stages/modes.

I want this now even though I haven't played the first, but I still haven't touched the new Tomb Raider or Dead Rising Case Zero. Is it a good ""wtf where did the time go" waster?

Next week.

So you didn't even try the demo? Oh wait, PSN. :teehee

Yes yes oh my god yes. When you eat up like a hundred ghosts at a time, you will feel it.

This game is the epitome of "okay, one more try then I'm getting off". Then 2 hours later you are still playing.
Title: Re: Pac-Man Championship Edition: DX
Post by: Beezy on November 23, 2010, 06:12:39 PM
Hmm, might get it tonight then.

Oh god, it gets overwhelming once the speed picks up. It's one of those F-Zero GX type of games where you end up zoning out because you need complete focus.

So apparently the ps3 version is 30 fps compared to the 360's 60 fps.  How can Namco mess up a Pac-Man port?  Christ.

Yeah.  I mean I know PS3 is a shitty system, but dude, it should be able to run PACMAN at 60fps.

I am laughing way too much at this. It's like most developers couldn't give a fuck about the PS3 version of their games.
