Pacman famous Game



Pac-Man has a famous kill screen often referred to as the Pac-Man Bomb Screen.
Thegame's level counter was a single 8-bit byte and could therefore store.
One of the most famous mascots in video games is back in a gleefully exciting game which puts a premium on racking up points. Pac-Man has never looked better, writes Nick Cowen.

magine you're a video games developer. Imagine you have access to a decent amount of resources and pool of talent with oodles of creativity. Got all that? Right, now imagine one day, someone strolls into your office and casually says, "we'd like you to develop a new Pac-Man game. It has to appeal to gamers across the casual/hard-core spectrum and most of all, it has to be absolutely amazing."
Exactly what sort of game do you think you would come up with?
I only ask, because, while he's one of the most iconic characters in all of gaming, Pac-Man has always struck me as being fairly restrictive with regards the sort of game he could star in. A Pac-Man titles requires players to navigate mazes, while avoiding ghost as they gobble up pellets. If any of these gameplay elements are missing, it just isn't Pac-Man and in a way they seem to box developers into a rubric in which innovation and variation hardly seem possible.
That having been said, it's a testament to the genius of the developers behind Pac-Man Championship Edition DX that, not only does this new title offer a fresh spin on a seemingly rigid arcade template, it's also one of the most exciting titles available. It is, in short, a game any sort of player – casual or hard-core – will take a shine to.
