    I agree with eToychest that the game is average on all fronts. That pretty much sums it. It's not bad, but just average. There are definitely better ways to spend your money.

    Pac Man World 3 takes away everything that was fun from World 2. The innovative platforming, the vibrant worlds, and the array of cool enemies are missing in this game.

    Pac-Man World 3 is a decent game and this is the best way to play it on the go. There are some issues here and there, but overall it's still good on PSP.

    Pac-Man world 3 while worse than Pac-Man world 2 offers at worst a mediocre experience however I find it to be a great platformer.

    This game is awesome, but the only thing is that it has some watering down and there aren't any save points, unlike the other versions. Overall, it still retains the World 3 texture.

    Wow! This is a fun game with addictive gameplay, funny humour and some pretty neat and unique touches such as the Maze Minigames. I absolutely loved this game and it had so much to do.

    Unfortunately, it is not perfect. The camera is fairly mediocre and can lead to some cheap deaths, something I would complain about even more if the game wasn’t so generous with lives. There also seems to

    Unfortunately, it is not perfect. The camera is fairly mediocre and can lead to some cheap deaths, something I would complain about even more if the game wasn’t so generous with lives. There also seems to be a glitch where, sometimes, the music and sound will just randomly stop playing.

    This game was so close to a 10, and if it weren’t for those hiccups it would’ve gotten it. Overall though, this is a really fun game which I would definitely recommend to anybody who can get their hands on it.

  1. Pac-Man World 3 is average on just about all fronts. Most players will probably overlook this title during the Christmas rush, but sadly, no one will lament the fact.
  2. Fans of the first two Pac-Man World games will certainly enjoy this game that might not add a refreshing new take on the series but had enough levels to keep your hands busy for a few hours.

    The sad part is that once I started to squeeze some fun out what was happening, I'd find myself wrestling with a clumsy camera that makes most of the jumping in the game harder than it needs to be.
