Pac-man DX
The Championship Edition DX of Pac-Man is one game that has the capability of keeping a player glued to it for five minutes or having them toiling for hours together. The game is a single player one but there is the provision to have a few others on the leader board and then it turns into a different obsession all together. The DX version of the game indeed pushes up the popularity ranking of the original game of Pac-Man by the same number as the CE version of the game had done. There are new and huge number of actions happening in this version of the game which adds to its addictive traits.
The difference in the game that occurs when one eats a fruit adds more variety to the game. There are sleeping ghosts also now to collect in the time that ensues soon after eating a fruit. Passing close by to a ghost wakes the ghost up and the chase of pac-man follows thereafter. To get extra power one has to wait the time for power pellets to appear. Eating up these pellets would give power to eat up the ghosts that follow. This gives the feel that had been “the factor” which made pac-man its original rating.
There is now the bomb feature also which one could use to knock all the ghosts right back to their home screen centre. The bomb however slows down the pac-man a bit and therefore the use of this bomb has to be done intelligently and not in a liberal manner.
All in all the game in its new version is just that good, it is an incredibly fun game to both watch and play, and one that fills a thirty year old franchise full of life once again just like a new collection that spruces up a shop fitting display. It is difficult to think of a more exciting and inventive way that Pac-Man could have been re-envisioned in 2010.
