Review: 'Pac-Man Collection' bites
By Bad Hare
(IDG) -- "Pac-Man" is gaming's global goodwill ambassador, so it's only appropriate for him to have a GameBoy Advance title all his own: four games in one cart, ready to hit the road. However, this game isn't the yellow circle's finest hour.
That's not to say the original "Pac-Man," whether played full-screen or in scrolling mode, isn't fun, but its feminine sequel on "Namco Museum" packs more replay power. The "Tetris" rip-off "Pac-Attack" is shameless but nonetheless addictive. And no matter how many times Namco tries to revive the pokey "Pacmania," it's still no fun; the "re-mixed" "Pac-Man Arrangement" does the same 3-D trick better and cranks the speed to boot. All games feature basic graphics and sounds, along with adequate controls. Safe and insatiable, "Pac-Man Collection" delivers high comfort but low thrills.
