C64 Gamevideo 09 - Pac-Man

[utubepenguins]

this looks very similar to the atari 5200 version

[Herbarius]

@utubepenguins yeah, it's almost identical ;)

[utubepenguins]

This rox! I think the screen looks WAY better than the more modern version on systems like Game Boy Advance. this deserves 5 stars!

[phonedork]

This must have been a direct port from the Atari 5200

[harleykman]

I think you're probably correct. They look and sound almost-identical.

For those that owned this when they were growing up, I bet this was the cat's meow, and the next best thing to owning the actual arcade game. I remember buying the Atari 2600 cartridge years back, new in the box, and pre internet, me and everybody else that bought it felt really suckered. Thanks for sharing.

I can't believe I played the Atari 2600 version as a kid. What a piece of crap compared to the C64 version.

[BobCassidy]

Thats it? Does it just keep repeating itself?

[DarkMetalSpider]

That's what Pac-Man does - I can't wait to get mine (from Ebay) - although, mine'll be the Vic 20 version!!!

[BobCassidy]

The ghosts dont go any faster or there isnt anymore of them? Its a bit crap. I dont remember it like that. I have a copy at home somewhere.,... probably, I hope.

[DarkMetalSpider]

Well, I think the one's in Ms. Pac-Man are the one's that go faster - all the others just seem to go a bit slow, anyways. But, I know it's a C64-but, on the Vic 20 - Cosmic Cruncher rules far more supreme that all the other "Pac-Man" games. Cosmic Cruncher owns!!!

[harleykman]

In the arcade version, there are 4 ghosts and they all go the same speed.

However after about one minute time, the red ghost gets "angry" and he speeds-up faster than Pac-man can run. At that point you're screwed unless you know how to avoid the red ghost.

You can download this on c64 . com & run it on emulation. You may also be able to burn the rom image to diskette & run it on the original hardware. Just a thought. I could be wrong .
