Daily RadarFeaturing over 180 puzzles, easy-to-learn gameplay and some great extras -- including three cool multiplayer modes and the original arcade version of Ms. Pac-Man-- the return of the first lady of videogames is one that's impressive, if not quite triumphant.
-
Like fine wine or stinky cheese, Ms. Pac-Man just gets better and better as time goes by.
-
May lack the bells and whistles when it comes to the visuals for a Dreamcast game, but a good number of options and the addictive nature of gobbling pellets is hard to beat.
-
CNET GamecenterThere isn't much to complain about with Maze Madness, except that the game is short and easy.
-
It shouldn't be ignored because it has playability, fun, solid multi-player modes, good music, and enough to give a gamer a good time.
-
It ultimately does what few updated classics do well - it brings new concepts to a well-known game while keeping the fun and magic of the original game.
-
If it weren't for the extra $10 you have to pay for the privilege and the Sega/Dreamcast boot-up sequence, there's no way you would know that this is a DC game from looking at it on a TV screen without the PSX version nearby for comparison.
-
Ms. Pac Man sometimes gets a mind of her own when you tell her where to go, but the simple controls keep gameplay chomping along.

[Anonymous]Nov 24, 2001Pretty good, but the ending stinks. But overall, I'd recommend it, and once you start playing, you can't stop.
