Forum Overview :: Pac-Man :: I haven't played DX yet, but I think you just totally sold me on it.

[quote name="Jerry Whorebach"]The original Pac-Man CE is in my top ten games of the generation, partly because it gave me something to do with my ridiculous bachelor stick besides lose at fighting games, and partly because it was everything I ever wanted out of Pac-Man. If DX is as good as you say, I may have to amend that to everything I ever <i>knew</i> I wanted out of Pac-Man. After watching a couple videos, I'm getting a serious "infinite spin" (good for the easily discouraged, irrelevant to hardcore score chasers, death to all us normal guys inbetween) vibe off the new bullet time and screen-clearing bomb mechanics. But at the same time, the pseudo-3D Pac-Mania visuals are maybe the most appealing thing I've ever seen. Why did I never buy this?? Oh, now I remember! It's because I was waiting for an XBLA sale, and apparently Namco doesn't participate in those. That probably explains why I never got the new Mr. Driller, either, despite being the world's number one fan of drilling shit.* *Don't tell my social worker, she would send me to the TAR SANDS :([/quote]
