    A fantastic action-platformer that, despite a few technical hitches and minor camera problems, delivers well over 10 hours of 3D Pac-Man goodness.

    Fun for kids and adults alike(the original Pac Man is even included in emulated form)--just be sure to bring a quality game-pad to the party. [July 2006, p.99]

    This game is almost good. The pleasant music and sound effects an collectibles make it seem like this game would be joy to play. But its not.This game is almost good. The pleasant music and sound effects an collectibles make it seem like this game would be joy to play. But its not. I had fun with the first few levels, then it just when down hill.
    First lets start with the mechanics of the game. The Rev Roll. Aside from almost thinking i was playing Sonic the hedgehog the Rev Roll mechanic is a messy unresponsive thing to even attempt in this game. You can never land on platforms that you need to use that to get to and its very, very hard to control.
    And now the biggest and probably only serious issue with this game. The level design. Oh my god.
    Pacman World 2s level design is atrocios! Rev roll leaps of faith, unexplained scenarios, so many jumps that you can just barely make regardless of how close you jump from the edge, Pacman will jank around and just about grab on to the edge giving you a mini heart attack in the process.
    Simply put, the levels are not designed well to have fun with and with an IP as big as Pacman, this a big deal. This game isnt good, but you can play the original arcade pacman in it. So thats good.    … Full Review »

    Awesome game for the PC, comparable to the other versions, maintains a smooth 60 FPS. This version is clearly superior to the others.

    I am not usually a pc gamer but I like to play this game on the GCN more than the other consoles!
