"Pac-man Vs."
, posted Thu 16 Oct 14:03
Nintendo of America announced today that Pac-man Vs. for the GC will be packaged with the following upcoming releases: R: Racing Evolution, I-Ninja, and Player's Choice Pac Man World 2.
For anyone who doesn't remember, Pacman Vs. is the multi-player Pacman where one person controls Pac on their GBA and up to three other people can control the ghosts to chase him down.

I am dying to try this game. It is potentially as funny as my all-time fav' Bomberman. Nintendo's cube is definitely theeee console to plug in when a couple of friends pop up.

The pun is so big I won't even point it out.

I loved this game when I tried it at E3. I'd be amazed if anyone was capable of finishing a maze with Pac-Man, though... because controlling Pac-Man seems so slow on the GBA. That, and camping ghosts (like me... hehehehehehe) can sit on an area and play defense.
I'll probably get R: Racing for the Cube to get the extra Pac-Man game.

Theoretically couldn't you just sit(or move back and forth) on one of the powerpellets so Pacman could never win?

That's exactly what I did. My friend watched me do that, and said I was the cheapest person alive. :(

Um, aren't there four though? If the ghosts camp at the power pellets, Pac Man is free to move about the maze, take the one free power pellet (3 ghosts can't protect all 4 pellets) and keep taking them until the maze is done. Pac Man just has to be smart.

I hadn't thought of that. But that's certainly a viable, sure-win strategy. Or at least, sure-stalemate strategy. Because of that, Namco shoulda included a timer in the game. If Pacman collects all the pellets or the timer runs out, he should automatically win. Otherwise the ghosts can just camp all day long.
Or maybe camping on energy pellet weakens the ghost.
