Pac-Man Championship Edition 2
SCORE: 63
The hype for Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 was really big. I was so excited to see Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 for twenty dollars brand new at a local retailer. I did not hesitate to purchase it for Family Friendly Gaming. I thought for that price I was willing to enjoy this game. Then I started to play Pac-Man Championship Edition 2. It did not impress me. In fact it made me think the twenty dollars was an inflated price.
Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 comes with the original arcade Galaga, Pac-Man, and Dig Dug. Problem is they are barely on the screen. The graphics should have been made larger so we are not in front of the television set trying to see the retro graphics. Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 looks better and has some neat special effects. There are not many levels and we keep doing the same things over and over again.
What do we do in Pac-Man Championship Edition 2? We collect pellets until a bar fills then we can eat a piece of fruit or some other item. Once enough of those are collected we can eat a pellet. Now we can eat the ghosts and all of the trailing ghosts we woke up. Rinse and repeat. I do not understand why some others love Pac-Man Championship Edition 2. I got bored with it just after the tutorial.
The modes in Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 are Score Attack, Adventure, Tutorial, and Options. Adventure Mode has forty levels in it. The controls are very simple in Pac-Man Championship Edition 2. I love being able to jump back to the start area. That jump back has limited uses. The sounds in Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 are very standard Pac-Man sounds.
I would value Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 around five to ten dollars brand new. The timed nature of the levels felt weird at first but eventually I adapted to it. I wish this game was more fun.
