PAC MAN CARTOON SERIES

Just out of personal curiosity, how many of you are excited for this news? A new Super Mario Bros. Supposedly both the show and the game will debut at some point during Fall 2013, though any more specific release date info is currently unavailable.

PAC MAN CARTOON SERIES

The aforementioned animated series follows this same premise and will air on the Disney XD network. Like I said, that’s basically the same premise used for The 13 Ghosts Of Scooby Doo, only we expect far less annoying Scrappy Doo antics, and presumably a bit of ghost-chomping. The Ghost-chomping mechanics return from the original PAC-MAN but with exciting powered up variations in PAC-MAN and the Ghostly Adventures, creating an innovative yet familiar gameplay experience. Not only will PAC-MAN and the Ghostly Adventures feature a revamped PAC-MAN universe, but it will also hearken back to PAC-MAN origins with classic elements such as Ghost encounters.

Pac-World’s only hope lies in the last surviving yellow Pacworlder, our hero with a voracious appetite. The game revolves around the vibrant universe of Pac-World, where Pacworlders lived in peace until the mischievous Netherworld ghosts, led by their wicked leader Betrayus, escaped from their ghoulish domain to forcibly take control of Pac-World. A 3DS incarnation of the Ghostly Adventures will also be available, but this version will be something of a 2D translation of its console analogue.Īs for what we can expect from the game, Namco Bandai offers the following synopsis: This would the main iteration of the title, which is a 3D game which appears to have more in common with Pac-Man’s latter-day platforming adventures than his pixelated arcade roots. The show does retain a few vestiges of the original game (Pac still chomps on colored berries, he can power up and down, and some of the sound effects recall the game's), but mostly it's an entirely new story designed for a new generation of fans.Pac-Man’s next adventure seems to lift a page from Scooby Doo, and not just because the game is linked to an animated series.ĭubbed Pac-Man And The Ghostly Adventures, the game is slated to appear on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii U. In other words, there's a lot of potential in this vibrant, action-packed series.Īs is to be expected in modern incarnations of classic characters, advances in animation technology put a whole new spin on Pac-Man and his world. What's more, he leans on his friends for help and turns to others for guidance when it's needed. Known as 'The Yellow One' by his enemies, the last of a race lethal to the ghosts and thought to be extinct, Pacster faces his heroic destiny head-on and shoulders responsibility for the entire world. In closing, this Pac-Man from this show is a bad role model, and I prefer you go for the Hanna-Barbera cartoon if you want something Pac-Man Related.įar from the two-dimensional dot-matrix world of his classic video game, PAC-MAN AND THE GHOSTLY ADVENTURES gives Pacster an intriguing back story, a couple of comical BFFs, and a selfless purpose of saving the world to fulfill his destiny. who's named that for no reason other than to be tortured, that's like naming your child 'Satan' for his misbehavior. Because that's what we want to show our kids: making them fat by eating junk.Īlso, I hate that there's a villain named Betrayus. What I don't like from this 'Pac-Man' story is that he's a gluttonous teenage jerk, who focuses more on food rather than helping others. Also, according to the Hanna-Barbera Cartoon, Power Pellets grow on trees, so the Power Pellets are fruit. Yes, Pac-Man eats junk, but he had a balanced meal, like Cherries, Apples, and Grapes, to counteract with the Pac-Dot Cookies (Yes, they are cookies, not drugs). This is not the Pac-Man that I remember from the Games, like in 'Pac-Land', 'Pac n' Roll' or 'Pac-Man World 2', where he was portrayed as an Adventurous Family Man, caring for his family and protecting his home from Ghosts.
