    One of the most exciting titles available. It is, in short, a game any sort of player – casual or hard-core – will take a shine to.

    I can't think of a single negative thing to say about it, and it's definitely in the contender for Game of the Year.

    Pac-Man Championship Edition DX introduces a number of terrific new elements that make it a superb update of the arcade classic.

    As far as 2010 goes, it's mightily difficult to recommend a downloadable title more than Pac-Man Championship Edition DX.

    Seeing other companies failing to give the proper attention to their timeless classics, what Namco Bandai offers for a mere $10 cannot be overlooked, whether your a newcomer or hardened gamer.

    What a formidable tribute this Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is for the 30th birthday of Pac-Man. Addictive, thrilling, psychedelic, this frenzy-inducing downloadable title reinvents the classic gameplay with subtleness, without spoiling the substance of the original. Being able to refresh such an oldie without crushing it... kudos !

This IS Pac-Man. I am amazed how they could improve the formula. This game is addicting. It's fast paced and there is nothing more satisfying then eating a train of 30 ghosts and wiping out the rest as you keep extending the power pill time. I even enjoy the Matrix time effect whenever you are close to getting nailed by a ghost. I can't think of any negatives.… Expand

    A lazy, over-glorified expansion pack. Even after all these years, I never understood the hype behind this game compared to the likes ofA lazy, over-glorified expansion pack. Even after all these years, I never understood the hype behind this game compared to the likes of Pac-Mania and Pac-Man Arrangement. It's linear up the ass and forces you down scripted hallways due to how the trains and sleeping ghosts work, and gobbling up trains is only fun for a few minutes before it becomes boring. Honestly, I had more fun playing New Super Mario Bros. 2, Another sequel I deem lazy and uninspired. But at least that game had content, This game is just lacking and is not worth my time. I am astoundingly disappointed.… Expand
