Namco is well known for releasing quality software and this is no exception. This game was delayed numerous times until Namco felt that it met or exceeded the expectations of today's gamers. The result: one of this year's best platform games and a fitting tribute to probably THE most recognized character in video game history. Included is the original Pac-Man classic, a 3-D maze mode (ala Pac-Mania), and a new Quest (adventure) mode. The Quest mode has Pac-Man taking a romp in a colorful and well-designed 3-D world. This is polished platform gaming at its finest. Pac-Man has numerous capabilities to help him solve some very clever little puzzles throughout the 20+ levels. Control is tight and responsive. The music and sound effects are also well done. Had Pac-Man World contained only the Quest mode, it would have been a worthy purchase. But add in the classic and 3-D maze modes as well and you have a ton of replay value in your hands. Highly recommended, especially to those of you who have young children. Also, Pac-Man World is sure to appeal to girlfriends or wives who otherwise wouldn't be caught dead playing a video game.

I read the reviews of others here at Amazon.com in regards to this game before deciding to buy it. They were very helpful to me but I must admit to having a love for Pac-Man well before reading any one review.
What makes this game so outstanding is the animation which is on par with the Pac-Man cartoon that I got a kick out of years ago. Some of you reading this review and others will wonder "yeh, but is it worth the price tag?" I can tell you without a doubt it is. There are many games priced far and above their actual quality but Pac-Man World is every bit worth its price and then some.
Besides the graphics, the gameplay is fantastic, challenging (without being too hard) and all out FUN. Pac-Man swims, gobbles, butt bounces (a must see)and the Sonic-like rev run can't be beat. The ghosts are all there with some new baddies...but beware, even seemingly innocent fish can prove deadly too.
The music? In a word, spectacular! It took me back to the fun of the Pac-Man cartoons and the music that plays when you run the credits is hot enough to do aerobic exercise to... I kid you not!
I just started playing the game this morning but out of all the games I've purchased: Frogger, Asteroids, Dead or Alive, MK4 and Need for Speed... I can definitively say Pac-Man world is the most fun I have had out of them all.

This is one of the best games I have played in a while. I will admit that I am not into all of those massive role playing games, Like Syphon Filter and Metal Gear, but this is a throw back to the days of Super Mario Brothers and Sonic. And that's just the adventure part of the game. you also get the old classic arcade style pac-man, and an all new 3-d pac-man game played very much like the old arcade game, but with much better graphics(obviously). A fun game that everyone will enjoy!
