Pac Man World 3 Description

1980 was the year that Pac-Man exploded onto the videogame scene and has never looked back. Since then, the yellow dot-muncher has starred in countless games and has been the inspiration behind many different products, from breakfast cereal to air fresheners. In Pac-Man World 3, it is up to you as Pac-Man to save the world from the evil genius Erwin. With a desire to rule the world, the latter has created a machine that can penetrate into the world of the Ghosts - the Spectral Realm! All known life is in great danger because the Spectral Realm is collapsing into the real world and the consequences will be devastating. Pac-Man will meet many old acquaintances on his journey to save the planet, and may even have to turn some of his old foes into allies. Pac-Man World 3 combines contemporary 3D platform game mechanics with much-loved traditional Pac-Man principles. The game also features well-known Pac-Man staples like Pac-Dots, Pac-Chains, fruit and Power Pellets, while also offering new elements such as power-up smoothies, a Pac-trometer and several special moves. Gamers are also given the opportunity to play as either Clyde or Pinky, who each have their own unique abilities.

Oh dear. What a shame. This game had all the makings of a great little 3D adventure romp. It has a well known character franchise, Pacman. It has fairly decent level design with good graphics. But sadly, the game is ruined by a truly terrible camera that just does not follow the character to give the player the optimum viewpoint. The challenge in this game is provided purely by wondering which wall you are going to be walking into next because of the errant camera and what should be simple, formulaic platforming, is turned into trial and error hell ! What a pity ! Give it a rent to see if you can put up with the camera, but dont buy !
