You should'nt really play this version of Pac-Man even if you can't find it on any other console

User Rating: 1.7 | Pac-Man 2600
By MedevilDragon | Review Date:
The 2600 version lacks everything that makes it fun and addictive on on other systems.

Graphics: 03/10:

A blocky maze with awful colours, it all been done better on Mega-drive and Snes.

Gameplay: 02/10:

Everything that made all other games in the series fun and addictive are dull and boring in the 2600 version.

Sound: 02/10:

Just as bad as the rest of the game, it all sounds better on other systems.

Lifespan: 02/10:

May last over a helf-hour but don't bet on it, and you will not return.

Finalword: 3.1%/100%:

This version of Pac-Man lacks everthing that makes other games for grate, there nothing here worth checking out, if you want a grate retro Pac-Man game then buy Ms Pac-Man for Mega-drive instead.
