[Why does it seem like I'm the only user that makes thoughtboxes in these forums? It's very sad! ] Pac-Mania is one of the many games that have followed in the line of Puck Man/Pac Man line up of games. While not as good as Ms. Pac Man, Jr. Pac Man, Pac & Pal or even Pac Man Arrangement; this is quite an exceptionally good game. Viewed from an isometric point of view, this 1987 game plays like the original one that started it all; but with a twist: you have the ability to jump over your enemies, which consist of your regular average joe schmoe ghosts. There are times when power ups will show up in the center besides just the level wise fruit. What's cool about this game is that it was an early attempt at 3D for Namco, as the Big Cheese himself has fluid animation. After every few levels, there'll be a cool cutscene, though brief. There are more than just four ghosts, and if you gobble them up with the Power Dot, you'll score huge points. Be careful though, 'cause there'll be one that will jump as well, so be on guard. Great game and worth playing. Peace!
I'm not a fan of it. Although I'm not big on Pac-Man in general. Everything is too big so you can't see far enough, jumping ghosts is fairly pointless as there are just a ton of ghosts instead of four (then in later levels many of them are unjumpable, meaning that there are a bunch more ghosts and you gain nothing)
Yeah, Pac-Attack I thought was a decent Tetris clone (perhaps even better!!!). Haven't played it in awhile. Excuse me... [goes to pull out Pac Man Collection for GBA and plays Pac Attack]

That game has Pac Attack? I only played that game around two times, I gotta go pull it out too.
The Game.
Is it after 9PM EST? You should probably ignore the above post.
Yes, volume five was the "O" volume; I forgot that was on that. It was the 6th volume "R" which was only released in Japan and came with the binder and memory card stickers (and which I imported back in the day...sigh).
