Pac-Man for the Atari 2600 Commercial

this is a really good commercial, it's a shame that not even the use of Buckner and Garcia's "Pac-Man Fever" could save this game from contributing to the video game crash of the 80's

Thanks I would rather be dead than play that piece of shit conversion.

Ms Pacman was a much better conversion.

It didn't suck, it just wasn't the same as the arcade version.

We used to have big tournaments in my friend's neighborhood. It was pretty fun.

Fun≠Suck

@LegendOfAGamer When i first started watching i thought for a second they were going to avoid showing the game. Would have been the smarter move.

Wow... at least in this one they actually show 1 ghost flickering

[grim10fire]

It did not sound like in the arcade.

Have to agree with the description, especially since the SFX were nothing like the arcade game or the commercial.

[LegendOfAGamer]

They made the mistake of showing gameplay footage.

[BansheeMilk]

They have 'Pac-Man Fever' playing in the background! Awesome! There is a hilarious reference to it in that short story "12 Things You Didn't Know About Tony Curtis"....so funny

[Platitudinous9000]

The ghosts flickering doesn't seem like as much of a problem as YouTube makes it seem. What bothers me is this port's sound.

1 stick to move them all!!! Oh and 1 button to start it up...

Using the sound effects from the arcade version should've been treated as false advertising.
