I just this for the 360 on a sale and it's pretty awesome so far. It's turning out to be a very well made 3D platformer. Something about the way it plays is just so much fun. I think this might be my favorite 3D Pacman game ever. Much better than the PacMan Adventures game from last gen, which I though was cool overall. If I keep enjoying it the way I am, I might just buy the new one pretty soon.
 
That is cool, just watched some gameplay footage and it looks like a fun platformer. I miss the days of having several developers releasing 3d platformers.

This is kind of like one of those good and under looked 3D platformers back during the early 2000s on xbox/ps2/gamecube where you had lots of games with interesting game designs, even if unoriginal. What I'm digging about this game is the variety of powers Pac-man takes on. Ice, fire, small bouncy ball, big granite ball, lizard, and there's supposed to be one more metal power I've yet to come across. I also saw that this game has an interesting local multiplayer component where you control the ghosts and race to kill Pac-man. There are power-ups you can hit both Pac-man and other ghosts with, but the Pac-man a.i. very easily defends himself. The maps are laid out like a classic Pac-man board. It's sort of like the Pac-man VS game on the Gamecube, although it doesn't seem like Pac-man is controllable in this instance.
 
I'm just gonna say it. This game has some challenge in it. I just got finished playing a boss level where you had to eat a chef's buffet on top of a grill while avoiding and I died to the point of frustration. This is a great game to have on any platform, but it's really cool to have on the 360/PS3 and I hope we see a nexgen port or sequel. Game deserves to be a whole trilogy.
 
I'm in the ice levels and it reminds me of the love/hate relationship I have with ice levels. I love the way they look, but I hate how the sliding can cost you a life. Also, I only played one of the extra arcade games, Cherry Copter, and it pretty much blows. Wish the original Pac-Man was playable instead. Maybe it is and I haven't played it, but even Pac-Man Worlds had the old arcade game.
